Default eeek! my eyes! my eyes! stock tbb?? why upgrade dv's before one of the most

failure prone items in the 2.7t engine?? 710N's are cheap compared and you could have spent that $$ on a kevlar wrapped TBB or bipipe....IMHO.

What sound does your car make when the tbb is torn?

Default do a pressure test and you'll hear a pshhhhhh, otherwise you really can't hear it at all while

driving. You'll notice significant power loss above 3-4k RPM though. Sometimes the car surges a bit, too.

Fool proof way to test is with a pressure tester though.
