Called a waste gate i think?

Got one on my g60 corrado.

Sounds same as a dump valve as it does the same job i belive. Can only hear it from inside the car over 3k revs.

Sounds pikey, like sumthing a chav would have on their car. At least i can blow most chav cars away. Apart from snowys car..... still havent driven with him yet!
