Default Can anyone shed any light?

I was down a popular cruisin scence last night in Notts.. and there was a White Escort Cabrio Turbo.. now..

when he accelerated.. the turbo wound up.. and spun.. you could hear it miles off.. anyways when he let off the accelerater.. there wasnt no Dumpvalve.. it was more like Air been sucked in or something.. if anyone has seen Redline -RENTONS- BMW in sitting there and been revved.. its EXACTLY like that.. basically it sounds like air is been sucked in and dragged.. its hard to explain.. im just wanting to know what product was making this happen.. thanks people

He was SERIOUSLY pushing his luck LOL.. there was one of those Speed police vans Sitting right on the central reservation (the ones with the telescopic cameras) and i heard this chatter noise a mile off.. proper loud.. i turned round and saw a white with a balck rag top cabrio comming down. he stopped at the entering junction for the round-a-bout and he then floored it.. he wiped out most of the cars there.. proper entertainment.. what is he running Torque wise??.. the arse was out all over the place..
