Evening mate!! The SSC does exactly what it’s name implies…. Sound Suppression Chamber. Some RS’s exhibit a whistling noise from the Turbo, most noticeable on start up as the RPM is raised slightly. This noise can become more prominent if the Air Intake is upgraded. I found this noise rather loud after upgrading my Air Intake, it sounds a bit like the whistling sound you get blowing over the top of a beer bottle. I fitted the SSC and that quietens it right down. It looks like this….
It’s located on the drivers side of the Turbo.
Hope that helps mate!!
Cheers, Marc.

It is on the turbo cold side, by the recirc valve.
I got a Cobb SSC installed. It does too good of a job that the woosh sound from the aftermarket intake gets canceled out. I’ll be uninstalling mine when I find time.
