hahahahah reminds me of those fake turbos that make the noise because retards actualy think its cool yes, thats the noise from the blow off from turbos. Theres also shift noise ( more of a cachunk ) that high powerd NA cars produce and quality imports

Perhaps hes talking about the sequential transmissions like the hollinger 6 speed. Correct me if im wrong but doesnt the tranny use co2 to make it shift ? Its quite loud due to the high psi used to make the car shift thru the gears?

Some turbo cars don't have blow off valves it could be the wastegate?

It really depends on the size of the w/gate. Blowers make the same sound if I'm not mistaken, someone correct me if I'm wrong.
