Fake Turbo Sound Simulator
Brand: Details: It's finally here...The non-turbo blowoff valve!!! This kit includes everything you need to get that popular blowoff sound that turbo cars give off on every shift. Save yourself $4000 from turbocharging your car just for the sound. All the hardware in the picture is included with the kit. For the price you pay, you really can't go wrong.
The SUNAMI will simulate the “psssst” noise generated from the blow off valve of a turbo-equipped vehicle. The SUNAMI comes complete with all hardware, which includes a manual push button trigger mechanism as well as a vacuum switch trigger mechanism. After setting a trigger boost level through an adjustable setscrew on the vacuum pressure switch, every time you reach the set boost level, the SUNAMI will simulate the "psssst” noise generated from the blow off valve of a turbo vehicle. An additional override button also allows you to trigger the SUNAMI anytime.
Click below to hear the sound!
1. How loud is the SUNAMI?
The SUNAMI is as loud as it should be to simulate the closest sound of a blow off valve. The SUNAMI comes with a volume control ****, which may be used to set the volume to your desired level. The factory setting is at the highest volume and is ideal for all applications. Remember, you don’t want the volume level to be too high. If we recorder the sound onto the memory chip at a higher volume, you will experience a bit of distortion as well as an unrealistic image. After installation, ask a friend to drive the SUNAMI equipped vehicle, while you are standing on the side of the road. By doing so, you will know exactly what your vehicle sounds like to the outside world.
2. How long does it take to install the SUNAMI?
It will take an average of 45 minutes to install the SUNAMI. The wiring is very simple because there are only two wires which need to be connected to the vehicle – the red, positive, wire and the black, negative, wire. The rest of the time is spent on running two pairs of wires through the firewall and into the engine compartment. One pair will be connected to the sirens and the other pair will be connected to the vacuum pressure switch.
3. How does the SUNAMI trigger the blow off valve sound?
The SUNAMI may be triggered either manually or automatically. The override push button, which is installed inside the vehicle, will the trigger the blow off valve sound every time it is pressed. You may trigger the sound once every five seconds, however. In another words, you cannot trigger the blow off valve sound twice within five seconds with the manual override pushbutton. The SUNAMI may also be triggered automatically with the supplied vacuum pressure switch. This switch is highly sophisticated and made with precision. Once the vacuum switch is tuned exactly to your liking, the SUNAMI will trigger the blow off valve sound every time you reach the set boost level and slightly lift your foot off the gas pedal; just like a real turbo equipped vehicle. After installing the vacuum pressure switch, you must “learn” the characteristics of your individual vehicle, and “feel” the moment you would like to trigger the SUNAMI.
4. Will the SUNAMI work on any vehicle?
Yes, the SUNAMI will fit any vehicle equipped with vacuum hoses. Almost every single vehicle has multiple vacuum lines.
Installation: Push/Pull On/Off switch
Override push button to trigger SUNAMI anytime

I thought I'd just give a quick update since it's been over a week since I dropped the car off.....
The Saleen blower is installed.....it currently has a 3.2 pulley (~11 psi). The upgraded heat exchanger is installed, as well as the Saleen Extreme inlet pipe and Steeda cai. The GT500 fuel system is going in tomorrow; with the added fuel pressure Dave was concerned about the tap that I made into the fuel rail crossover hose for my fuel pressure sender unit, so he installed a new set of factory fuel rails and crossover tube. Onto the new rails he is going to install a Steeda fuel pressure gauge adaptor, so it should be a clean look.
The install should be complete tomorrow, and then tuning begins on the dyno. We are swapping my hood and modified shaker setup for a '07 factory hood, since the blower and CDC shaker won't work- Dave confirmed this today. So I'll have my choice of add-on scoop or maybe a replacement hood this spring.

We want a daily report on your progress.
What kind of snow did you guys get up your way in the past 24 hrs? We only got about 1 inch over night instead of the 3-5 predicted. 
Looks like most of the really nasty stuff moved south of us down here. I know this weather pattern is making me nervous about the 3 1/2 hr. drive on Thursday night.

We got probably around 3". Supposed to get 3" to 5" more here today but I don't think it's happening.
I would hope the car will be done today, but I can't get up there this week until Friday morning at the earliest. Way it's looking right now, is Kim & I will drop the kids off at school on Friday and then she'll drive me to Brenspeed. I should get there around 9:30. Then she'll probably leave and I'll hang out for a while, then drive the car home.
The first drive home with the new blower and snow on the ground should be interesting with stock Pirellis on there and 4.10 gears.

Heck by 9:30 Ben, Larry and myself should have her well broken in for you.
Oh...stop all that snow talk please. No bad karma.

and since Brent and yourself are so tight! see if he would sell some of his promo decals separately I would dig the brenspeed.com rear window decal, the windshield decal is to much for old men we need all the visibility we can get!....

Hey Larry,
Here is what Ryan's (Cali HP Addict's) car sounded like with the Magnaflows installed after his GTA's I know it is just sitting at his garage but what do you think of the difference?

Definatly a deeper sound IMO, seems like the raspy tone is gone. Hard to tell until you hear in person.
How about you buy the Magnaflows & put them on yours & let me hear how they sound in person
Then I'll decide
Seriously,does sound good in the clip.
Messy here today,gonna be bad as soon as it freezes again.Hows it down your way?
Also, I'll just be leaving here very early Fri morning to head to Brenspeed's. Will catch up with you there Friday.

So Scott, whats your contingency plan? ...What kind of time delay on a install reschedule?.......Okay Guys (both of you) I will make you a bet...I bet I see Brent White before either one of you do.
One of you won't drive his car if it is below 32 degrees because he has some kind of Fuc!ed up tire on it and the other one has to have his wife drive him up on Friday morning. And has already made it sound like he won't be able to handle his new found power with 4:10 gears on the way home. I won't mention any names here. I will be there. I may not get home on Friday but I will get my cams installed on Friday. Any takers???

Hi Larry,
At this minute I think it just raining. Temps are up to 35 now. But like you said it will get nasty again tonight when it freezes again. I am going to talk mufflers with Brent on Friday since he has heard them all. Unless he tells me something bad about the Mags I am going to pick up a set while I am there. I really believe it will take a fully chambered muffler to get rid of the raw and raspy sound we now have. We can meet up some where down here so you can hear them in person.
Tom did it with his Borla's but just used resonators to accomplish the same thing IMO. I still have your cell # from the last trip we made together. You need me you give you a wake up call about 2 am so you can get there on time? Scott

Scott,
Won't need a wake-up call. Been working odd hours most if not all my career.
Did remember one thing though, you may want to check around & see if others mention any drone with the magnaflows. Seems to me they had some as well.
Looking forward to taking Tom's ride out with that new Saleen installed
