yeah ive heard u can get ''dump valve'' type valves for na cars. but it is completely unatural sound, I think u need to get a gas bottle with a hose and a valve, and im not sure how its activated but the principal is that the gas is forced through the valve via the hose, producing a whoosh sound.
It all sounds a bit gay really, just get a turbo, use the money and tune up ur n/a car rather than imitate a turbo.

lol, you might aswell use the compressed air to feed the engine rather than make the noise. The best fake addon Ive ever seen is a turbine sort of fan that sits in the exhaust and makes the noise like a turbo, lol. Comming a close second would be fake rear disks, especially the ones that are coloured

Once you have the DV sound the novelty quickly wears off, esp on motorways whenyou are letting on and off the power all the time. Get very bored of the sound.
Why would you want to immetate a turbo anyways, wow l wonder what the 1.2 has under the bonnect cause it just went tiiisshhh, then you;'ll get laughed at when they find otu it is just a 1.2.
