I can hear my turbo more with my spare key?

Charleston335 · 10-31-2012, 03:03 PM

So the other day I was driving to the airport with my spare key and I noticed I can hear my turbo WAY more than with my key I usually use. I know the maps and settings are different when you switch keys bc its how you drive but why is the turbo noise more noticeable with my spare? I have the cowl off and running a JB stage 1 and I can still hear my turbo with my original key just way more with my spare?

Engine should sound the same. The radio preferences are different and saved to each key fob, along with power seat adjustments and mirrors and BC settings.

I think its all in your mind. Sorry.

Thats what I thought but after using my original key today I can barely hear it! With other key its sooo much louder...

does the key fob adjust the settings in the driver's hearing aid too?

Do you have comfort access? The battery in the CA Fob is not self charging. Maybe the battery in your number one Fob is low and so your turbos aren't working as hard.
