i know this is silly, but i took the vacume off the bov, so it wouldn't open, and i got teh flutter sound, but the car was soooo lagy and didn't want to boost past 5psi, the dam thing sucked. Is that what normally happens when you block on teh BOV.

mind you i have connected it back up, it was just being silly.???

My understanding on how a BOV works, is that the pressure helps holds the BOV shut. Hense, when there is no pressure working on the BOV at all, it is like you are introducing a big leak.

.............. is there any hope for these people.

can just see this scenerio

import car sales man: " i just need you to listen to this recording before you qualify to own a skyline".

tape recording can be heard........ vuuuuuuuuu tu tu tu tu tu

customer: "wow bru's da iz da shickest sound dis side of chapz ay....."

car sales man: "get out of my shop........"

ohh i see so if i just take of the hose to it, then the car will leak boost as the BOV has no way of being held shut, makes sence, learn something new everytime.

My question is, there are so many cars running arround with an BOV but still have flutter, can this be from an external gate, or the BOV being set to tight?

I have read many posts about the flutter, and was wondering, on the weekend was washing Jumbarie 16 and many of their drag cars had flutter, i presume that flutter was bad, but many people have that flutter sound.

Thats right, you need to pipe connected no matter what or you'll have a mad leak.

The way people block the stock BOV is putting a metal gasket between the return pipe and the BOV, that way the air gets trapped and has nowhere to go but back through the turbo (not good according to lots) and out the air filter.

can be certain that it wasnt the wastegate making that sound....

as for the cars at jambo making that noise..... big compressor + heavy spring on bov = some reversion

as for your normal run of the mill cars that still have a lil bit of reversion, as you said, bov is possible too tight

If you unplug the vacuum hose (and not plug up the hose) it wont really work because the standard bov's leak, they have a small hole in em underneath therefore introducing a vac leak so you'd really need to block it either with a plate in between the bov and the pipe its screwed onto or put something in between the hose connected to the bov and the return pipe going to the intake pipe. That works well with no leaks but if you don't have it tuned to compensate for the added fuel it throws in the car will start backfiring on ya cos of the AFM. Thats the only thing i don't like about AFM cars... its the shit you get when messing with vented/ blocked bov's.

I reckon 5 mates packed in the back yelling and screaming and throwing half full cans of beer randomly at cars, bikes , pedestrians and small dogs is a far better way of drawing attention to yourself.

Although if you already have that option get a few off duty barmy army members (they don't have much work on right now) to sing a loud and catchy song about how your mates car goes 'dose' from the back seat of the car, even from inside the boot?

gees, I have absolutely no clue what wastegate flutter is supposed to sound like.....all I know is that people with external wastegate goes like.........vrrrooooooooommmmmm WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so could someone clue me in as in what the flutter is supposed to sound like?.....all the flutters I've heard is from fully sik bro's and their blocked off bov

mythbusters ahoy >_<

#1 there is no such thing as wastegate flutter

#2 flutter or chop chop (vl style tutututututu) is air pressure collisions in the pipework, as a result of compressor surge, as a result of running no bov

#3 a wastegate making a "vrrrooooooooommmmmm WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" noise is a sreamer pipe setup, nothing to do with compressor surge, bovs, flutter etc.

#4 compressor surge occurs when pressure past the compressor wheel exceeds what the map dictates, so if you goes beyond that, the wheel surges violently

#5 when you block the bov, on gearchange the pressure collision causes the compressor wheel to surge, as we know #4 happens when pressure past the wheel goes beyond what the wheel can supply, so by blocking the bov, you induce compressor surge

gees, I have absolutely no clue what wastegate flutter is supposed to sound like.....all I know is that people with external wastegate goes like.........vrrrooooooooommmmmm WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • Welcome to my 2004 Toyota Mark ii IR-V Fortuna (series 2) With a 1JZ-GTE powerplant under the bonnet (hood) it'll give me plenty of scope for power upgrades. For those who aren't familiar with imports, the 1JZ-GTE is a 2.5L 6 cylinder VVTi engine with a single turbocharger. This has the factory R154 5 speed gearbox, along with a aftermarket 2 way LSD differential (brand unknown). Under the arches are a set of CST Zero 1 alloys, 18x9 +30 225/40 up front and 18x9.5 +15 265/35 on the rear. The car was quite low in Japan and there's evidence of the wheels catching the rolled arches/fenders. The tyre's aren't great so I'm in two minds whether to replace both or just the tyres and put up with the wider wheels on the rear. The car still uses stock brakes with the addition of some braided hoses. The exterior is stock with the exception of a BN Sports front bumper and a replacement Fortuna grill  Moving to the interior, the steering wheel has been replaced with a dished MOMO steering wheel (which will get swapped for my Momo Tuner for the time being) Defi Link Gauges are mounted above the climate controls and on the A pillar, the Oil Temp,Oil Pressure,Water Temp and Boost gauges should help with spirited and track driving  The stock seats have been replaced with some retrimmed Recaro bucket seats. Being a larger build these are a little snug, unfortunately the orange isn't for me so I'll look into replacing these down the line. Other modifications include a twin plate clutch, Blitz intercooler, Evolve alloy radiator, a stainless exhaust with decat, HKS EVC-S boost controller and coil overs
    • Apologies for the long read My R34 GTT was up for sale at the beginning of spring due to a few repairs creeping up. The strut tops needed replacing, roof and bonnet (hood) painting (yay for 3 stage pearl) and the underside stripped and treated. I sold the car which allowed me to be in a much better place financially. Leading up to the sale I was already thinking about the replacement. In an ideal world it needed to be a good all-rounder. Something I can mess around with, modify, do track days, do the school run, go on long drives etc.  Options included but not limited to... Laurel C35, Evo 8/9, Civic FD2, Impreza Hawkeye, Aristo and even an Audi S4 Avant (I've already got the Mazda 6 wagon). But there was always one car at the top of the list The Toyota Mark ii JZX110 I found an advert on a Facebook group for an example in Japan, from a seller called Jon at Rising Sun Exports. A few messages back and forth and Jon calls me from Yokohama one morning (or afternoon in his case). He briefly explained the import process, the costs involved and a repeat of the advert. After much deliberation, the price was agreed and the sale was locked in. I've never imported a vehicle so I jumped into the unknown head first. The money transfer was completed through wise.com (fees apply), very easy to use and the money was with him within a day or two.  The car suspension was raised for the vessel and the car dropped off at the port. It was 7 weeks later when the bill of lading was received and the freight invoice sent to me, followed by the export certificate a couple of days after (both digital copies) In the mean time the port had been in contact. I needed an agent to deal with the NOVA (notification of vehicle arrival) along with the tax/duty invoice, this was £75.00. The port also had a fee of £100, I'm guessing to cover the cost of the 10 day 'free storage' and for moving the car off the boat etc. They need a copy of the vehicle invoice, freight invoice and export certificate to allow the vehicle to pass through customs. The vessel arrived on Tuesday 5th August, the tax/duty invoice was generated and sent over. This is generally tax 20% and duty 10% of the vehicle value. Although the invoice came in at a higher amount than I had calculated. Once HMRC had received the payment the vehicle could be released from customs. I thought once the tax/duty was paid you could collect at any point, that's not the case. Your agent will need to book a collection slot, I requested Thursday 7th which was accepted, with a 9:00am slot allocated. It was a 5:00am start from Norfolk heading to Southampton. We eventually found the compound, upon presenting the bill of lading and some ID they released the car (they drove it out of the compound to the front ready for us to load up). The email from the port stated each slot had a 10 minute window, which seemed abit farfetched but the staff said it's not a strict rule. We were there for approx. 30-40 mins in total. A week prior to collecting I contacted my garage and explained the situation, I was able to get an inspection slot that afternoon. For the registration, DVLA require the car to be insured, for this I used a company called Adrian Flux who can insure the vehicle using the VIN number. 
    • Hey guys, looking for these side skirts if anyone can help me out. 
    • Wife and I are still looking for a new home. One condition was a large enough garage for a full-size lift in one bay. Now if only we could find something... We've been looking for almost a year now.
    • Thanks everyone for the ideas! Sadly, ramps are a no go for me. With young kids at home, I do most of my work late at night while they're sleeping. Starting the car multiple times wouldn't be a great idea.  I'll go see one of those new long reach low profile jacks and take a couple measurements to see if they will fit.
