yes i know the sound your talking about also. one of the main reasons i bought a line was because the way they sound! even without an exhaust system. My series 2 33 gts-t only has a pod, and dam does it make a sexy hiss to scream sound when it climbs the revs. thinking of not installing an ehaust and leaving it be, some people call it the python ;)

I've got a quiet exhaust on mine. Close to stock sounding. With a fully exposed (no cai yet, my bad) pod filter and an aftermarket 460hp T04e it hisses insanely loud when you're in the cabin. Love it :)

yea yea somethin like that

thanks bro

Yeah that is a quick grab of when my Son was testing an in-car camera mount with my Wife at the wheel.

She normally spools it up a helluva lot more than that. Must have got camera shy.

We only started really hearing that sound after GCG "fixed" our blown turbo.

its either the blow off valves if installed or leak back through the turbo & pod from the butterfly snapping shut ... with turbo cars your dealing with forced air hence the more Air/boost that is trapped the bigger the air dose escaping... this is a size , lengh and volume of intake that changes the note of the

      WTB RB25 Gearbox NSW / central west

      Agree with Rob. I recently did mine and replacing with a brand new unit made the most sense compared with rebuilding my existing gearbox.

      Rb25 trigger kit and timing misalignment

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Are you suggesting that the kit did a cheap and nasty job of just jamming the wheel in between other things and caused the misalignment? I mean, we normally do this with an integrated crank trigger wheel, not something bodged on. It's not 1995 any more.

      R-chassis INNER tie rod torque spec?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I mean, given the number of BMWs you own their tolerance for improper torque is rather low. The number of torque + angle spec bolts and non-reusable bolts in one is nuts.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      Atmospheric vent requires something that doesn't use a MAF for load. You would need a standalone ECU for that.

      Rb25 trigger kit and timing misalignment

      By drifter17a · Posted

      Hey all,   I’ve got an RB25 with a trigger kit that includes a crank wheel, and I’ve hit a wall trying to sort a timing belt tracking issue. The belt either rides right on the edge of the cam/crank pulleys or walks slightly forward once the engine starts. It tracks okay-ish for a moment, then creeps right to the edge—and honestly, it’s stressing me out.   I’ve spent hours removing and reinstalling the belt, double-checking everything:   Tensioner setup is good, checked multiple times Idler pulley and washers are all in the correct places Followed the RB25 timing procedure step-by-step     The only thing I changed was the rear crank washer—I swapped the OEM one for a Neato version, and it made things worse. The belt now sits even more forward than before. I’m beginning to think the crank trigger wheel itself (from the trigger kit) is the issue—poor design or slightly off dimensions.   What’s strange is that with the previous belt setup, it actually ran fine for a couple of years—around 4,000 to 5,000 miles, even with hard driving and high RPMs. But even then, the belt was always riding right on the edge, and I know that’s not ideal or safe long term.   At this point, I’m debating whether to:   Machine a few mm off the crank trigger wheel to bring it back in line, or Replace it entirely with a better-designed unit     Only thing is, I already have the Cherry Hall sensors, bracket, etc.—I just want to replace the wheel only, not the entire kit. Anyone know a brand or supplier that sells just the crank trigger wheel on its own?   Would really appreciate any feedback—especially from anyone who’s run into this exact issue and found a reliable fix.   Thanks in advance.
