Default Blow off Valve for 2007 A4? Can I buy one?

Hey guys, I really like my
2.0T S-Line A4.

I can barely hear the turbo "let out"
when I release the throttle.

Is there an aftermarket blow off valve I can buy
or has anyone modified the stock valve?

I'm obviously going for MORE SOUND here!


I know it won't help performance or anything.

Point me in the right direction.

Thanks!
Aron

Aftermarket intake will pronounce the "release".

Default Get a "Cold air intake"... I say "cold air" because its hotter, and is dumb.

But you will hear some whooosh...

Do not, I repeat, do not, get a BOV, it will make your car run rich and sh!tty.

who makes a good cold air intake?

and I'd like a good open one (not a closed box)

correct?

are there any good, affordable
kits out there?

If you have one on your car, email pics to:

thanks

Default Because of the mass airflow sensor...

You don't want a BOV unless you like a check engine light.

And I would pass on the intakes too since they do nothing on Audis. You might get more out of chrome door trim. &lt;-SARCASIM.

Default Agreed... skip on both

Maybe if you're chipped you could benefit from a cold air intake but it's not going to do anything if you're running the stock program. Blow off valve, it only belongs on ricers, Subarus and old school Audi 5-cylinder turbo engines.
