Turbo spooling early

[bullzeye]

Since changing my cat last week I seam to be hearing my turbo spooling from 2k revs it's quieter then when it kicks in normally but when driving like a granny I can still hear it . The turbo is still whistling normally where it used to just this quieter whistle annoying me,

I am having over fueling issues at the min could this be connected

I can hear mine whistling slightly when pootling about mate, nothing to worry about

So maybe not hearing it was the problem

Nothing to worry about

its noraml mate mine spools from low down revs, and how can you tell if its the silenced version or not ?

[jamie1989]

Unsilenced



Silenced



And two of them side by side



The silenced is found on the AUQ's I believe and have the big silencer on the top of it lol

As long as it's meant to do it I'm happy lol but why had it never done it before until I had the cat changed ?humm
