How much louder does GMS1 make the turbo?
I am not going for loud, or quiet necessarily, just curious. How much more aggressive does the turbo sound on GMS1? (or the whole car for that matter? blowoff, exhaust, ect) I am leaving my intake stock, besides the airbox mod. My only mods will probably be GMS1 and a catted downpipe. Explaining "loudness" isn't easy, can be kinda subjective, plus peoples mods vary, but I am sure someone here has some insight.
Considering the stage kit doesn't modify the induction system or the exhaust system, my guess is any sound change is minimal. Maybe it sounds different/louder under high boost since the turbo pushes more air, but otherwise it's probably the same.
Should be able to let you know in a week or so

It's noticeably louder, mostly because now we're pushing up to 20+ psi! When you're light on the throttle and at ~5-10 psi it sounds the same as before, but when you really lay into it and get the boost up you can hear a distinct difference.
On the stock airbox I don't notice any real difference in turbo sound (it might be a little louder, but if so the engine and exhaust drown it out), but the recirc valve is noticibably louder opening at 20 psi vs 15.
hmm if its stock then its gonna be quiet...but with ic piping and intake then you'll hear it spool and the bov will sound louder...people love my car's sound, then again i have an HKS bov
