Squirrel Cage
When I was at the ALMS race at Road America, I noticed that some of the turbocharged cars had a tradional blowoff valve sound, and some had a very distinct "squirrel cage" sound.
It makes me wonder, what sort of device for venting excess turbo pressure makes the "squirrel cage" sound?
