You can get those rice whistles at your local Crappy Tire amongst all the other useless rice products out there.

HAHA.. OK I GUYS I GET THAT IT IS KINDA LAME I JUST WANTED TO TRY IT OUT AND SEE IF IT SOUNDS GOOD UNTIL I CAN SAVE UP ENOUGH MONEY FOR A TURBO. I SAW AN "EXHAUST WHISTLE"AT CANADIAN TIRE IS THAT WHAT IT IS? HAS ANY ONE HEARD ONE INSTALLED ON AN AFTERMARKET EXHUAST SYSTEM?DOES IT SOUND ALRIGHT?

ok i figured id help u out cause no one else seems to be. the "Exhuast whistle" you saw at can tire. Its a BOV simulator its supposed to make your car sound like its turbo charged. i dont actually know what it sounds like off hand but i cant imagine it sounds too great but maybe if the exhuast is aftermarket. i think there only around 20-25 bucks and they screw into your muffler. Hope that helps you out man. BUT if you decide to get it save up and get a turbo as soon as possible cause it is quite lame.

I'll say this one. Please do not put your posts all in caps. It is hard to read and pisses off the natives.

thanks.
