fake turbo sound?
You guys know how when a turbo is installed an you accelerate there's a little bit of a whistle that the turbo makes? My manager told me if I put a space in for my CAI inductions intake then it would sound like I had a turbo by giving it a fake whistling noise. I was a little confused but is it possible to give my v6 the sound of having a turbo without having to put one in?

I'm sorry - but IMO that's one of those things that fall into the "Just because you can doesn't mean you should" category.

I would not do that at all. I believe their is something that you can put at the tips of your exhaust that make it sound like a turbo. i would not do anything like that at all.

This thread could get ugly.
 To answer your question, it will whistle some but won't give you a blow off sound of a turbo.  Quote:

anyone who knows enough mechanically to know what a turbo is would be able to figure out you dont really have one quite fast. And for the people that dont know what one is, well, they wont care regardless- sort of lose lose to IMHO.

This post put a smile on my face.
As for your post, don't do it...it's always best to upgrade than to pretend that you have something when you really don't have anything...just my 2c.
