Help with turbo diverter valve/swoosh sound

I’m new to the W204 and am trying to get help with why after changing the Turbo Diverter Valve and adding a new Turbo Muffler Delete, I still can’t hear the Almighty Swoosh Sound? Can someone please guide me in the right direction? My car is a 2013 Mercedes C250 W204 Sports 4dr Sedan. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello ​​​​​​@Greeneyez2319 , to get the notorious turbo swoosh sound, you need to install a Blow Off Valve (BOV) and upgrade from the diverter valve. I ran into the same problem when I got my c250. I installed an upgraded diverter valve thinking that’s what I needed.

go fast bits sells a blow off valve for our cars that many people, including myself, have installed. There’s a bunch of videos online about go fast bits BOV for our cars.

search Go Fast Bits blow off valve for c250 and it should pop right up for you. That’s what you need!

also congrats and welcome to the forums !
