That's the diverter valve and it's a lil bit louder with an aftermarket intake >

If you want it louder... yes.

There are a few threads on here that discuss intakes and diverter valves- they are well worth reading all the way through. O0

i probably get an cold air intake. but what is that diverter valve?

I'm impressed....nicely done! I'll try and copy your attitude and play nice too.

Oh hell who am I kidding. >



Throw a blow off valve on your car......don't worry about the check engine light though...It's just for decoration.

ok i just checked the prices and the valve was $159 and intake was $220-250. im guessing ill get the valve.
and right now i have a 2006 nissan altima. if i get the valve, can i put it on the nissan then on the gti?

 

[kryptonkid07]

wow.. man, you're pretty clueless. no offense at all though.

Answer me this: Does your Altima have a turbo charger?

also,

answer me this: Would you rather pay 150 bucks for a noise maker or 188 bucks (shop around man... http://dynamicmotorworks.chainreact...d/149?osCsid=18650b2755e9416195f52c6bbd2ae875) for something that will give you an extra 10 Horsepower?

 

[B13]

nah no turbo. but i would never pay anything to tune a crappy altyma, unless i can put it in another car too!

hmm 10 more hp sounds good, but i want the noise maker too is it going to make the sound too?

 

[Dragon]

Altima? Is that a Nissan?

:WELCOME6:

 

[B13]

yup nissan
