Craig's Leon does sound the nuts! The best way I can describe is it to those that don't have a clue what he's on about - I have a K&N 57i on my Ibiza 130 Sport - and when you let off the throttle - the induction kit sounds like a quiet dump valve/flutter valve. But Craig's is a stupidly loud version of this! And I want my car to make this noise!

Craig - you can have my slightly more powerful Ibiza engine if I can have yours? Just for the noise? ;)

Can't wait to get my powerflow exhaust fitted if it makes it even louder :)

Mine with powerflow decat system and tiny backbox!

It's definitely a 2nd and 3rd thing - who needs to spank all that cash on diesel dump valves ... it's there if you want to play with it :)

I posted about this ages ago but cant remember the outcome. It seems to happen best when your off boost, put your foot right down until the turbo starts to spool up then lift off quick. Ive even had two smaller 'chuffs' after it. My brother-in-laws Octavia Vrs 170pd doesnt seem to do it? Maybe he hasnt mastered it yet it does take a while to get it right.

Devonutopia, If I remember rightly, yours seem to almost do it all the time at the Skoda meet at the beach and the exhaust seemed to sound like an evil howl, spooky sounding.

Noticed no difference in performance. They claim to make 5bhp increase. But lets be honest - with 130 already - you're never gonna notice 5bhp increase cos it's so minimal! If yours is a 130 diesel you can have mine for a price? ;)

I reckon I might go smooth air box way....
