I think it's turbo, just like Minacious is saying you can hear it in the beginning, and I thought it was pretty obvious why you can't hear through the rest of the video because whoever is driving never even gets close to giving it full throttle, and since rcsti pointed out it uses small turbos then it's going to be even harder to hear any spooling. And it is just as noticeable with a diverter valve as it is with a blow-off valve, just a different sound.

Point is: yes it sounds turbo at the beginning but he never gets on it after that, so it doesn't show was the APS TT can supposedly do.

Haha, I guess I came off as a dick. Wasn't trying to I swear. Didn't mean to insult anyone its just that I hate it when people come up to me and say "omg I LIkEZ YO TURBOz YO, sounds ILLLLL!!! How hard you boostin???" Only because they claim to hear things like my turbos (plural) spooling when all they heard was the BOV go off at low boost. By that same token, people that post online about FI and dont have a clue about whats going on kinda tick me off, reminds me of movies like fast and the furious..I guess thats where they get all their info anyhow.

I feel like what you guys are hearing at the beginning of the video is just the chassis/suspension settling after he goes over that small rut... because I cant hear anything when he goes into 3rd... If he was half throttling everything then we should still be hearing a lot of flutter from the slight compressor surge.

Also I don't really know who you are so I guessed it was the usual silly vin diesel brigade type crap. My bad, I dont know everyone yet.
