    Yeah you can get a thing that just makes the noise for you. It's for losers only though. Try the motors section, we all had a good laugh at the yoke a year or so ago.

    Buy a foghorn.

    To answer your question, No. A Dump valver can only be fitted to a turbo car as it releases pressure which was created by the turbo.

    If you want to hear your 'whisshh' noise in a field, buy a turbo car and fit a dump valve.

    Do NOT buy one of those fake dump valve noise simulators or I will personally cut your wrists

    You could take the dump valve from a Nissan Punto GTE. If you can find one like. :)

    Buy yourself a supercharged car like a Corrado G60
    http://www.matey-matey.com/corrado-g60-article.shtml

    It makes a very pleasing sound when changing gear after pushing past 3000 revs :-)

    Plus it's a 1.8L engine but has only 20hp less than the 2.9L VR6 version and the supercharger doesn't affect the insurance cause its factory fitted and not classed as a modification. A feckin class car to drive!!!

    an exhaust with a nice noise should keep you happy for awhile till your old enough to afford a proper sports car
