> [@Hooked on 240](#): > > But turbo is not always noticeable, espically if they have a internal BOV. this is the first time ive read this, internal blow off valve? are you retarded. my personal car uses a diverter valve which recirculates and you can still hear it when i let off in boost. and with an internal wastegate you would hear the turbo spool still, hiding a turbo isnt an easy task, they are audible in some way no matter what you do ---

To me in sounds like the car must of been on spray. I think if your up against a turbo honda you would hear the BOV, or the honda getting 0 traction. ---

> [@Shawn96VR-4](#): > > I been keeping this a secret for awhile. It was a nice day so I decided to get out of the house and go for a ride. I was driving to the pet store to get food for the dog. I see this car in my rear view pacing me so I decided to change lanes to take a peak. As luck would have it? A light ahead goes red. I roll to the light slow and a Honda Accord with some random gauges and shit comes on the side of me. He had his GF or some broad in the car with him. I look over to see what was done to it but didn’t want to get caught looking. Light goes green and I take off. No launch as his RPMS were idle and I didn’t want to pull a ricer. > > About 20-30MPH, I am ahead by about 1-2 car lengths and then all of a sudden, I am getting pulled. WTF? I am not sure if it was VTEC or TURBO as the exhaust was really loud but I got pulled pretty good. At about 50-60MPH, I shut it down and I am 2-3 car lengths behind. ☹ > > There, I said it! And here I thought you were admitting that the NY resturaunts you frequent were requiring you to stop in for an estimate before you actually sit to eat. ---
