Mods for increased turbo sounds

[michael2024]

Hey Everyone, very happy to be part of the group. Just got a white integer type s and was wondering what simple mods would be best to get better turbo sounds. Do these mods affect warranty? Was looking at some prl filters for example. Greatly appreciated!

Change filter to high flowing model
Replace intake
Some have installed a blow-off valve, but I wouldn't recommend this since the system is closed loop with a recirculating bypass valve.

Agree with the above. Would avoid the BOV due to recirculation needs. Cold air intake will increase your sounds.

If you want to hear the spooling more, its muffled by the intake track. Removing the airbox for a cone type filter is the most common thing, though a dealer could raise an eyebrow most won't for just an airfilter provided there is nothing else (but also calls to question is the ECU tuned, are other things changed.)

Just be careful the next step in annoying noises will be this, and we want to avoid the sickness.

Pretty much any intake on the market will greatly increase the turbo sounds. I just installed the Infinity Design system and it's night and day.

For reference I've had plenty of turbo cars with open element intakes and aftermarket blow-off valves. I miss the unmistakable whistle of the Greddy Type S BOV I had on an SR20DET-powered 240SX... but with this intake installed it fills that nostalgia gap pretty well.

I noticed a pretty substantial improvement in power too.

...until you put an even louder exhaust on the thing and drown out the swooshy sounds.

Our best mod would be the PRL HVI intake. Makes huge turbo sound difference.
