He may be talking about the n20 'purge' sound. If that is the case, you can buy purge kits... they aren't that much.

You could record the actual noise and just play it when you drive.

Pretty sure that would work.

No, if they get rude its because you are asking how to imitate having a turbo in your car. That kinda paints a picture there man, sorry to say it.

Yea... don't take it personally man, you just have to understand that everyone here that isn't 'show only' type people are going to bash on you if do plan on going the 'show only' way. Does that make sense?

LMAO.... *******, but hilarious.

To the op; they do make fake BOV kits but as soon as you are heard by anyone that knows cars and they ask about your turbo, you will be forced to tell them that you don't have one and you just have a 'fake' BOV. Makes you look like an ass... know what I mean? This is why it's frowned upon.

if your really serious some will laugh because its considered rice to have fake turbo and so on, but if you really want it look around ebay, there are all kinda of little things that make the bov noise your referring to just dont know how good it will work out for ya.

nos is not a word.

N.O.S. is a brand.

nitrous oxide is the power adding gas mixture in the tank.

there is not a "whoosh" noise while on the bottle. it sounds like an air leak in a tire.
