Sounds normal to me. The 38R is always loud.

When I put the WW2 in mine it sounded like that too. I think it's normal. As long as you aren't having performance issues (low power, high smoke/egts) I think you're fine, although it does sound a bit louder than mine does... May just be camera placement though

Sounds like my stock wheeled 38R with a deeper tone.

Do another run with it and actually let it light. Mine still had that growl sound down low (less than 5psi) but after that it goes away and actually has the turbo sound to it.

Sounded pretty normal to me too.

Does it do that past about 5 lbs of manifold pressure?

Maybe there's a koala bear stuck under the hood? :lame: :cursing:

Sounded kinda normal to me. Like was posted earlier, get into it and let the turbo light.

sounds like an open 6637... the closed in box of my AFE pushed more of the noise out the tail pipe instead of under the hood....got rid of the intake drone as well...

The more I drive the quieter it seems. And yes it only does it down low. Once its spooling it sounds sweeeet. Gotta say it has made a huge difference. It spools uber quick and hits 40
before you know it.
And Ron, I have the aFe

I have a 38r and mine sounds nothing like that. I can bearly here the whistle and there is no grouling noise. I wish mine sounds like that.

How much will you pay for mine?

Before you judge the 38R, tow with it across the Outback.

Mine is differnt then. I just put the wheel in mine and you can barely hear it at all. With the stock wheel it had the loud whistle, the billet one is very quite but it spools faster and makes more boost
