    Help please: Does DV makes krraah sound?

    1) I get a "krraah" sound when I lift off the gas pedal. Not all the time, usually if I step on it enthusiastically and lift off suddenly. Apparently I'm not the only one.

    2) I figure it's the Divertor Valve or something related. What does the OEM DV sound like?

    3) Will changing to the AWE or Forge DV change the sound at all?

    4) I am using OEM DV

    I get that on mine too. And they get pretty loud and raw when I release the gas pedal (between 60 to 100km/h). Definitely doesn't sound anything like the "hiss" of a BOV (sounds more like when you are clearing your throat in the morning). The "kraahhkh" will not be obvious when going on very high speed (above 130km/h). I got the Forge DV and Carbonio intake, they help in the performance in the car but not the "krah" thing.

    I replaced my stock one with the awe DV and I do a "Krraah" sound when I lift off the gas. It is very minimal. If I had an intake that sound would be louder.
