Right, this is a completely random thought, but is there any way that this would be possible?
Its not that i want it, its coz u see these fake ones through a speakers etc and i thought surely there must be a way to release some sort of pressure.

To be honest i have no idea if it would even be possible, but i was thinking if there was a way, u could make loads of money off it selling it to chavs and chavetts etc!?

yes, there is a way, you can weld a mount to the crank and a slider to the block, and this will hold a coke bottle, and as the crank turns, it will shake the bottle. with a little adaptor you can link the cap to the throttle cable and when you lift off it opens the cap a bit.

yeah jambo there is no advantages to an atmospheric dv, other than the noise, you will get not benefit over a recirc, and in some cases with cars that have drive by wire systems, the atmos Dv will make it run crap
