Funny you say that...I recall vividly one guy in a wrx or an Evo who came up next to me at a light....he exercised his blow off valve at me....which I refer to as "blowing his nose" ....

My car is nearly silent with the cutouts closed. So I looked over at him and did this....without revving the engine...

When the ground started shaking...it was like I pulled this on him...

He took off slowly like a proper gentleman. Happy new year.

I like my low profile QTP's. Only gripe is they take a while to open/close. Like six seconds. There's another brand, can't remember the name, that is like two seconds.

My Dad is building me a timer controller to where I just need to tap the button on the QTP remote and it will engage the motors for six seconds.

For the longevity of these QTP's (mine have been mounted for 8 years this month almost to the day) I'll live with the 6 seconds.

Just wanted to make sure you knew about this.

I've since added the remote Joe. I like it a lot better than the switch. The holding it down is what bugs me, and the duration. I wish it were more like an NPP. Once I get my fuel system done I'll install the timer.
