    rs2, changing gears "prrriiuu" noise, and blowof valves...

    Hi

    I have a question that lately I am worring about.
    My RS2 as I remember (I am the second owner) when driving hard and changing gears it makes a "prrriiuu" noise - looks like from the turbo or intake - its like a horse kind noise or so. I remember to listen that noise on Delta Integrale rally car, and some others turboed rally cars...
    First I liked that, like better then usual blow of valves "Pshhhh". But after reading a thread about an S3 diverter valve instalation on a RS2 that it stopped to make that noise, I started to think my rs2 can have some problem.

    is the "prrriiuu" noise rs2 that rs2 makes, normal? is it any advantege on instaling a blow off valve on RS2?

    thanx

    You need a new dump valve. the standard valve makes no noise at all.
    when you get a new one, open old one up and see the split in the diaphram....
