Just curious. I find that civic turbo engine sound is very loud when really accelerate and rev more than 2.5k. Normal cruising is quiet. Is it normal for most turbo cars like Peugeot,VW,BMW,MB etc? Civic is my first turbo car that i have driven so I cant compare.

Thanks

My friend drives BMW 535i which is twin turbo and I can say its very quiet even on high speed ... the RPM is pretty low on high speed -> (160km/h) and the RPM is at around 2k to 2.5k only ohmy.gif If I recollect correctly sweat.gif but then again its a 3.0 liter twin turbo car so yea, I don't think it should be compared to civic haha laugh.gif

back to your question = its very quiet on BMW

Don't get me wrong. civic turbo under normal acceleration and cruising even above 2500rpm or > 130kmh is quiet. Loud engine noise only when u really accelerate hard or floor it where turbo kick in for max power. Noise should be from the turbo. Once release the pedal, everything quiet again.  biggrin.gif

no worries biggrin.gif I gave my comment based on what I experienced when my friend drives it. He's quite a spirited driver I would say... but I don't really notice any loud significant sound from engine even when he floors it on the highway. But again, I might be wrong on this as its not my car. Just my 2 cent, based on my experience sitting in the car notworthy.gif
