most flutters i hear pitch up

Interesting, I thought it would be physically impossible for flutter to pitch 'up'.

Got any examples?

I'd be ultra keen to hear any flutter 'pitch up'.

Exhaust wheels (Turbine wheels) do not have nuts.

They are fused to the shaft, And the compressor wheel is reverse thread.

Its more likely to sheer the shaft and snap it in half which i have seen :wave:

Compressor wheel is what I ment, yes.

Here is a pic of a spear turbo for my boat.

They get the sound by sandblasting the blow off valve with HKS sand

I think the sound is from a closed loop BOV. It isn't an open atmosphere.

lol..I thought Bass Junkie was for real..I went...Wuuut the!! + club exec ><

I think the sound is from a closed loop BOV. It isn't an open atmosphere. <<< and no...if you have a plumb back or an atmo BOV installed, once the throttle closes, the excess air between the turbo and the TB is either being plumb to before the turbo or discharged into the air...making no fluttering sound at all.....depending on spring rate/amount of air vented or plumb back

I would imagine having a larger volume intercooler would produce a lounder fluttering noise due to larger volume of air closed off.....I think that is why the HKS GTR has such a loud fluttering noise....

also by having no BOV or bypass valve, as the throttle body opens again, there is a ready supply of air to be sucked into by the vacuum into the plenum...in contrast to having the air dispersed somewhere, requiring the compressor to work quite a duration to re-fill the vented air....so more responsive without the BOV...it will be damaging I suppose but who cares...they have plenty of turbos in stock, the main thing is to impress the press!!

I think the ceramic turbine is only at the exhaust end...if I remember correctly, the intake is made up of sumthing different just to prevent the turbine from smashing to bits "ceramic blasting" the cylinder... the ceramic turbine tends to shoot out of the exhaust if boosted to about 1.0 - 1.2bar..or so I was informed ><....so the ceramic bit will not be affected whatsoever by producing the flutter....

I used to think that the fluttering come from the "sequential BOV" due to it's name "sequential"...it'll be amazing to note how many ppl think along the same line~~... and sad to say I eded up with a HKS sequential BOV

I went ..huh where's the su-to-to-to-to-tooo sound...

and buy those HKS sands...it works magic..my engine is all shiny remember to flush with turtle wax after~~

    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it鈥檚 still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers
