Turbo sound?

Turbo sound?

I may have messed something up not sure but maybe. So went out went a little crazy Off-roading couple of battle scars on the front bumper (Skid plate was a savior). And now for the BUT car drives fine no issues no check engine lights everything’s smooth except for now it sounds like I have an atmosphere BOV (which I don’t) little loud exhaust just some extra turbo noise and not bad noise it sounds good but definitely not right. Got underneath it and there’s scraps and scratches on the resonators but no obvious cracks or leaks. Anyone else have this happen? Any suggestions ? Gonna pull the skid plates and get real look but wanted to know if anyone had this issue?

When you hear the sound are you in Sport mode or is that sound all the time on any mode

It’s in any mode I’m pretty sure, I don’t think it’s the enhanced engine noise thing , I’ve played with the modes before going out and never heard it

I’ve always heard a bit of turbo flutter upon hard acceleration then suddenly letting off the accelerator. Is that not normal?

You mentioned "atmosphere BOV" and "little loud exhaust" in the same sentence. Can you be more clear? A BOV makes a loud hissing noise then you take your foot off the accelerator pedal, and the exhaust noise will be louder when you put your foot on the accelerator pedal. I don't see how you get both of these at the same time.

At idle it sounds a little louder a little rumble, and it’s not the normal from the factory sound BOV think of a race car where get the real audible turbo sound BOV when you drop RPMs. Im gonna pull the skid plates and get under to see if I can find where the sounds coming from, my guess is a something came loose after the Cat or maybe on the intake side

I pulled the plates off and I didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary, no noticeable exhaust leaks. The 2nd cat has some scratches on its plate and the resonator has some scratches but nothing wild. I can’t tell where it’s coming from I’m thinking I cracked the flex pipe. Service appointment schedule for Wednesday and I guess I get to enjoy pssstutututu for a couple days

Any chance you might have backed up and got dirt in the exhaust tips or maybe bent / crimped exhaust pipes or punctured the muffler?

Don’t think so everything looks go no holes and tips look fine. Definitely strange and head scratchin. It definitely has that cool turbo vent sound. I don’t if it’s good or horribly bad. But other the. The sound the car runs fine. I thought the exhaust sound was louder (previously stated lol) but I don’t think it is it sounds normal on that end

Hi there! Would you send us a private message with your VIN and dealership name and location? I’d like to look into this concern on my end.
