i\'ve just fitted and induction kit.. never before has the car made such a weird noise.
If i accelerate hard, upto say 6k and come off throttle to change gear, i get a really weird *boing* sound.. like air pressure coming back through something it shouldnt. I dont think its the redundent breather that comes off the back of the engine (see below arrangement) doesnt do it everytime

i wouldnt of thought it was anything to do with the waterpump being unveiled now it doesnt re-circ?
Its a really crisp, high pitch noise and last for no more than 1/10th of a second. Its nothing mechanical and its definetly a noise made from something being under pressure.
dump vale?
the pipe just above the air pump has no hose on it so try connectin that to the small filter on its left...
That noise is your air pump engaging!!! it\'s the draw through the air pump hose that is making this kift noise!!! every after market kit for the FD comes with a baffle to get rid of this noise, but not every one realises what it does...... sepcialy if you buy the kit second hand, you hardly ever get the baffle!!
Jono
the legendry mooooooo type sound thats like you have just run over a cow at 1100rpm lmao , its the air punp mate i had the same issue
Whats the best way of getting rid of the "cow" ?? iv put up with it but had enough of it now.
Bin the air pump is the best way!!! easy if you have a power fc, but it will need a slight tweek to compensate!!
Jono
you`d need blankin plates and a new belt to bud... and a decat pipe lol
the way i was told is , the pipe that should be attached to the airpump needs a bung putting in it to reduce the size of the bore , i used a piece of broom handle and drilled a 13mm hole down the centre of it lol can still hear it but not as bad
heard the same, or cut a small metal plate and drill a few 2mm holes into it..
mine does the same sometimes..... in an odd kinda way...... i quite like it! make me chuckle every time:rollin wont do any harm though will it??
