Turbo-sounding Intake
Hey guys, I was wondering how you make a turbo-sounding intake. My friend has a intake on his Acura Integra Ls that makes it sound like it has a turbo, he said that he made it himself. He said it is an intake that has a breather in it and that makes it blow off when he shifts. I was wondering if anybody has made a custom intake for their mitsubishi eclipse so it sounded like a turbo or is their directions for it. Thanks.

I saw on Ebay a thing that bolts onto your muffler and is supposed to make a turbo sound.

Why would you want your car to sound like it has Turbo but doesn't? Just my opinion...kinda like a non functional cowl induction hood. I'm not criticizing you, just asking why you would want that. I know this site is all personal preferences showing through on everyones cars and I respect that.

Well, I have a nice eclipse and I love my car. I don't have enough money yet til this job i am doing goes in full effect. My boys at MTS work all on Eclipse's and Talons, they told me that they would get me a greddy stage II turbo with installation plus transmission swap to manual for a grand. I think that is pretty good, also, they said for another $1000, they would make my eclipse 4 wheel drive with drum to disc brakes swap, plus give me a tuner piggyback chip. I think that is a pretty good for what they are asking. I can't wait till I start working full time again, and I will be able to make that money i would say in about 2 months if i don't spend heavy on anything.

All u have to do is instead of the vacume line from the intake to the engine head, all u have to do is buy two breathers and hook them up one to the intake and one to the engine head. That's what ur friend must have done.
