raymanuk Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Mine came with the purple. I bought the gold but prefered the sound of the purple so put it back. If I find what I did with it people are welcome to have it and try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hadyn Posted January 23, 2006 Author Share Posted January 23, 2006 Fitted at the weekend. Relatively easy to fit The purple fin makes virtually no difference in noise at low boost, but at higher boost levels 0.9+bar the slightly camp chirp noise is transformed to a much more aggresive low wooosh noise, which is nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPRALOOPY Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 I have one on mine....came like it when I got it?? does yours make a fluttery sound Ian when backing off the throttle at low boost?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamanC Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 I still havent got myself one of these! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadyn Posted December 21, 2006 Author Share Posted December 21, 2006 Right - ive fitted a purple fin to the ssqv in my current car which is totally stock. Thing is it seems to sound different at stock boost to how my old purple fin sounded at 1.2 bar on my old car. In fact is sounds quiter than the stock silver fin. I dont remember it being this quiet on my old one, but the purple fins seems to make it quieter, but a cooler noise?! Does everyone share a common experience of the purple fin with me here?

Ric Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 surely if your running less boost its quite logical to assume its going to be quieter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadyn Posted December 21, 2006 Author Share Posted December 21, 2006 yea, but the sound is slightly different to how i remember. It used to sound like a bailey chav valve on my old one, now it sounds like a robotic pffft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I think you should stop worrying about the BOV sound and drive the damn car Bloody chavs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hadyn Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 Always remember kids to remove your bonnet fireproofing/soundproofing to get the most out of your chav valve Sorry about the bump, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest WBsupra Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 hello, if someone still cares, i have an old comparison video with my first car; in the first sequence there is the stock fin, in the next one with the scratching tires (damaged 4x4 box at that time) is the purple fin. but my supra will get the amazing greddy type-s because i wanted to get rid of hks' tweeting sound.

a98pmalcolm Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 (edited) The gold fin is the same as the the silver one that comes with it, its purely for looks. The purple just give a deeper woosh. Don't use a fin and its quieter. I have tried all 3 fins. There is no way to make it louder but you can only change the pitch. Silver & Gold = high pitch Purple = Deep pitch No fins = Hardly a sound.. Edited January 29, 2017 by a98pmalcolm (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
