I've got nothing against a good force induction setup. A guy I know runs a super charged v6 setup that kicks out about 550hp and easily that much torque. I was just parroting the setting.
Also there is not much in this world more satisfying than a good blowoff valve.
I drive a GTI and I love hearing the turbo, I wish the exhaust note was better though. I see a few Fiat 500 Abarths around that sound amazing.
I don't see too many fiats where I am, used to have a hyundai genesis coupe 2.0T loved the blow off sound and the exhaust on it wasn't too shabby either when you got on it, but there is nothing like the latest generation of corvettes with the 7 speed manual.
I was at a Chevy dealer yesterday looking at a Silverado and they had a Z06 inside for a customer. They started it inside and oh boy does it sound good.
