Curious on how the idle sound is with vboost always on vs factory. Not looking for power gains just wanting to see if a more aggressive idle sound is available.

I would describe it as, "hollow." Yes to more-noticeable of a lope. To try it out, engine off, turn-on ignition with left scoop off. As VBoost cycles open and before it can close, unplug the round VBoost stepper motor plug. This keeps the butterfly pair in the VBoost open, and you can replace the scoop, and ride-around 'bad to the bone.'

I like the lopey idle of open vboost. You may have to turn the idle adjustment up a bit after unplugging the vboost controller as well. It tends to lower the idle speed some with the vboost open.
