Yup, the turbo will give you a deeper throaty sound. When you drive it and gear the turbo spool it is quite a sound. The surging sound is neat.

How much boost are you running again? What else have you done to prepare the engine for this change. I would imagine bigger injectors, colder plugs and come sort of fuel management maybe a AVC-R?

What are you doing to adjust the timing? Did you just retard it a little?

Very cool! That car will be a cool sleeper until you step on it.
