a4 turbo blow off? het guys i know you can make the bov loud for an m6 because you can control the shifts and what not but i didnt know if that was the same for an a4. could you put a bigger/louder bov in an auto? if so does anyone have sound clips? thanks guys
Its the same you can put on whatever bov you want. Your not going to get the woosh sound when shifting because you don't take your foot off the gas. The throttle stays wide open in an auto wheras in an m6 you let off and shift. The bov only opens as the throttle closes. Anybody else correct me if I'm wrong, but thats how it was in my 84 SVO.
Which, in an automatic, is not very often. We, M6 guys, do it 'cuz we have no choice letting of the gas... We can't go around powershifting all the time everywhere unless we want our trannies to die. 
Automatic=easy, press gas pass the 1/4 mile mark press brakes. I wouldn't get a BOV in an A4.

From a functional standpoint, my intake pipe still gets blown apart sometimes but without that BOV it would happen every time I sharply lifted off the throttle under boost.
As far as sound, I don't like it, super quiet which is not really my style. I can tell when it goes off but its nothing like most of the common bovs imports run, which are not nearly as functional.

The Tial doesnt have a horn and It has multiple ports so it is not really made to sound off. Also if you recirculate it will also be alot quieter as compared to going to atmosphere.
Call Jose at Forced Inductions, he said he just switch over to something that was really loud but I cant remember what kind it was.

I would love to hear this thing. Has anybody?
If anyone REALLY wants more volume, I'm sure it's not too hard to rig the Tial to do so a little bit.
