The pilot episode of Quantum Leap has it in the first 5 minutes when Al's experimental vehicle which looks like a sports car accelerates.You can also hear the zoom sound from pursuit mode I think.I guess many shows sound studios bought the same sound clips.

specially since both shows were done by Universal I know I heard that sound your talking about on Battlestar Galactica (the fighter jets made it when they took off from the Galactia).

Columbo which was also a Universal show used a few of the same sounds, namely the thump of the doors being closed and the famous tire screeching sound. Two actors also appeared in Columbo before KR, Dr Halston and the clown from the circus episode.

I remember that sound effect. I am sure it was just the sound of KITT's engine running as KITT was cruising but you may be right.

Some of the sound F/X was also shared with Airwolf, since they also part of Universal too!

Funny you should say that, I was watching Quantum Leap on Netflix and noticed the turbo boost sound, I think it was the pilot episode. I was like ooooo I know that sound effect haha
