It's certainly the loudest, but on the other hand no anti-lag sounds.
The Fabia definitely seems super-torquey, long geared and changing up very early too.

Yeah, 208 T16 anti-lag sounds quite unique with its.... lag.
The sound of 208 T16 or DS3 R5 is OK for me. It's VERY loud, louder than S2000 cars and although it has no anti-lag sound it's still great to listen. For example today on Pindula I heard Magalhaes like 30 seconds before he came while with Kopecký it was some 20 seconds for quiet bubbling and only around 5 seconds for the engine itself. On the city stage in the crowd I didn't hear the Fabia R5 at all!
few questions: 208t16 & ds3 are the only r5 cars without ALS system? which technical choice is behind? problems with heat's dissipation? thanks
They really don't have ALS in any form? The issue with R5 regulations is that additional air intake directly into the exhaust is forbidden.
208 T16 has it's ALS "BANG", it just sound really awkward, it's like having a delay when the driver pushes the throttle.
