Okay in this video the first car has a sound that sounds similar to a blow-off valve when the car is letting off gas and switching gears. What is that sound?

Blow off valve. Cause that Mini has a turbo.
It sounds so frickin cool though. I want that sound for my S.

I am not 100% positive, but I am pretty sure you can swap out your bypass valve for a blowoff valve. There might be a small loss in power, bt you would get that sound.
