Pretty sure its normal with these turbos, my old v4 STi did the same

yeah like a high pitch spinning sound i did notice where my dumppipe bolts onto back of turbo is a small leak that cud be making it sound worse lol.

It was audible but not excessively loud on mine. Yeah the leak is probably amplifying the sound

yeah its nt super loud had me worried for abit i also had a td04l on it.

chucked on the vf24 this morning and took it for a test..... almost creamed my self compared to driving on the td04l.

all ball bearing turbos do it even with the leak fixed - its not a thing specific to VF turbos - its a ball bearing thing - since the shaft can spin so easily - once turned off it takes a while for it to coast back to stopped - hence the noise

i got that when i went to vf23 from td04 and opened up intake. did a lot of searching on cs that day.

ever find out the cause>?

its not a problem just something that comes with putting one on i think. mines tight as in theory it was rebuilt just before i bought it. i can only just hear it if the sounds are off and when i turn the car off. My intake is a 3" 45deg bend though not standard.

I've got a rebuilt VF and it makes the noise, they're alot quieter from factory but once you remove resonators and airbox on the intake it just makes it easier to hear

after a little driving its not as loud anymore nt as noticeable. does sound kinda cool though

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
