i dont really care that much, like i like a dose because BOV on a vl is just ****ing **** it sounds stupid coz its not a supra or a skyline and doesnt suit it, but then again im fed up of the whole ****ing "zOmG does it dose re like come on drop a sik dose uleh" a nice plain flutter will out to any dose
dont get me wrong to i do love to hear a good old dose tho hahah

And thanks to dose, EPA's and Canaries are also traditions for VL's now.

i'm not a fan of the way people carry on about it on here, but in real life i do like the sound. My car does it but it sounds different, it sounds a bit like gas747 not like Dixie's, i'd say it's because of the turbo.

If I ever bought a VLT the first thing I would do is rip the dose pipe off, and toss the c**t into the bin. I'm not big on BOVs that much, but I prefer the sound of that anyday.
Mate the majority of people that own vl's are turbos! You cant tell me that most of the older peep's on here in the mid late twenty's when they were in there teen's that when they seen a nice vl cruise past and dosed it didnt say i want a vl when i get my lic. It's like owning a V8 with a nice solid cam in it and saying a lumpy idle is gay! whether your in to v8's or turbo's in genral, most people buy them because they like them in all aspects whether it be a turbo or v8.
If you dont like the dose go buy a v8 or NA6cyl you.

a few years ago i used to like doseing but after owening a vl and hearing a dose eevry 20 seconds down chapz or the hwy im a bit over it... if i still had my vl it would dose but its becomeing nothing special now as its always the same sound...
a dose like GAS-747 puts a tingle down my pants though!

For example

How can you not thrash a dose? Everytime you ease off the accelerator it goes off?
I must admit, i like it because it is different in SA . And the pipe was already on there from when i bought it.

I don't mind the sound in it's natural form. It's when people put on a dose pipe to amplify it and let off a "dose" every chance they get to get a reaction is an embarrassment. The fact that it has a name ****s me.
Personally I prefer the sound of a factory BOV on a skyline
