Chirping - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #50281 16 posts Started by kerosene
Well, that whistle that we have...that supposedly sounds like a turbo....its making a chirping noise before it makes the whistle...BLOODY ANNIOYING! If i change my exhaust do you think i will get rid of it?
yea, theres like a turbo type of sound, people have said it is the throttle opening... I dunno about that, but if i wasnt the only one..then i was ok with it...it sounds like its coming from the exhaust or catalytic converter.. somewhere there
I think you're going to need to be more specific than that...

When do you hear it? Idle? partial throttle, WOT, between shifts, etc.

Cars make a lot of noise... you're going to need to give us a little more than it chirps and whistles... your car sounds like belongs with Willy Wonka...

How to explain it... when you press the gas pedal 2/3 down or floor, it makes a turbo reving sound, the whistle right before it kicks you back and your crusing....The new chirping happens before the whistle, so 1/3 way down, or when the car is rev'd at 3000 - 4000rpm.... once you press the gas pedal in a little more, and the whistle happens, it stops chirping until you let go of the pedal, and slow down a little....
do you have one off those electronic fake turbo's that just makes sound and does not really do anything???

SRI = short ram intake

its likely a crack in your exhaust manifold wink.gif Thats what makes my car do it. If you wanna confirm, pull off your exhaust manifold heat shield and you should see a hairline crack covered in black residue! For me its acts as a gas saver tongue.gif I know im using too much throttle if the whistle comes on smile.gif
