EVOM's vs Dbilas intake noise
« on: 12 March 2009, 13:16 »
Has anyone heard the noise back to back? Is the Dbilas quietier? I have an EVOM's which does increase power but sometimes the dump valve noises get tiring.

Is yours an atmospheric dump valve, or a closed circuit recirculating valve?

The latter is much better, both for power and turbo life!  :wink:

How can you tell TT?  I have an EVOMS and am worried by what you've said  :sick:

The valve is OEM just an EVOM's intake.

Ahh right... I was wondering because the original post only mentioned intakes, but TT is talking about dump valves and I was wondering if there was something that I was not aware of  :smiley:

The original poster said: "sometimes the dump valve noises get tiring", hence T_T's question.

Sorry was meant to say the EVOMS makes the dump valve noises and i was just wondering is the Dbilas a quieter intake as it takes air from the front of the car.

Ahh... I thought he meant that the EVOMS makes the dump valve noises... because you get a whoosh and air sucking noise with the EVOMS intake - although thankfully not so people outside can hear  :grin:

....

A wee bit of air intake noise is enjoyable but the EVOMS I once heard on an Octavia sounded like a bucket of gravel :sad:

I had both the Dbilas item and VF Engineering one on my car (very similar to the EVOMS: apprarently the EVOMs is supposed to be louder). ANyway the VF item you could here loads of sucking noises in the car and a metallic fluting noise when lifting off. With the Dbilas all you get is an induction noise barely a little louder than standard, the same performance and no sucking noises
