Bov
this may be a stupid question but i thought id ask anyway... i dont have a turbo or supercharger, but think the cool wooshy sound the bov makes between gears is awesome... is it stupid to put a bov in a natural aspirated engine?? would it even make the noise?? i know stupid question, but feel free to respond

i didnt think so... on nissanforums someone mentioned that there was something that u could buy that would make the noise even on a na engine... anyone know of such an item?? a whistler maybe is what its called??

Hell my real family makes these guys look like teddy bears. Welcome to the .org. I will admit the woosh sound is cool, but completly rice if you dont have the turbo to back it up.

Most of the guys on here are harmless. Just dont take what they say too personal and you will be alright.

"Why spend thousands of dollars on a turbo system if you just want the awesome soundFX? This machined aluminum exhaust insert sits inside your exhaust pipe" honestly who buys a turbo just for the sound?

You do have a point. These kind of replies could definitely persuade people to no longer ask questions here. Which in turn would defeat the purpose of the forums. Oh well, time will tell. However I will reidirate to "SEARCH!"; Google, msn, etc. before posting a question on here. It's always easier to obtain the basic knowledge yourself, then seek the more in depth infor here. That's unless your sick and like the abuse. And ditto to everyone elses answer about the BOV.

you make a valid point but seriously some question simply shouldnt be asked, and when were met with such a question its so overwhelmingly shocking that it was asked that you get funny responces.
If people post "dumb" question and then feel discouraged and dont want to drive a maxima then they have more issues than how to get the BOV sound on their N/A car. As to you learning more with the 300GT than here what is your point? Is the Maxima forums suppost to be teaching its members more than any other fourm?Sometimes People are too sensitive if you cant have a sense of humor you'll end up a very stressed out and bitter person to be around.
