After takin the ceffy to the pits today they have told me i need to "rectify loud induction noise" or the flutter on gear changes. I have an FMIC and a M's pod filter and space is extremely tight . Is there any way i can muffle the fluffer so its not so loud?

Its only on stock boost and i dont have space to build an enclosure around the pod.

Hopefully there is another way other than fittin all stock gear back on again cos for a start i dont have any of it

cheers mike

I had wicked induction noise on my cefi with standard turbo, standard boost and a HKS pod. I even put on a new pod and it was still too loud for them. basically i said it was complied like this and never came with an airbox so this level of noise must be acceptable.

Fight it :wave:

^^^ that seems right - i wouldnt diconnect the actuator rod - uncontrolled boost levels

the turbo will still spool even if the wastegate is not connected and could potentially damage your turb

ohh and rb20det ceffs never came with a factory BOV

Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldnt that let the boost rise uncontrollably? ie. unhooking actuator rod means wastegate stays closed???

That's what I first thought, but that is what would happen if you disconnected the actuator hose, ie the spring would just hold it closed. if you take the rod off, the spring is doing nothing and the wastegate flap just swings around, and would open with no effort.

yeh at first i thought woud just make uncontrolable boost, then i thought about it some more if i disconnect the rod then jammed the wastegate open sum how then the turbo wod make no boost, car woud b a bit of a pig as a boost woud b just gettin blown straight out the wastegate hole. Ony thing i am worried about is the turbo could b free spinning and could damage it??.

Jai i tried arguin that point aready but the pit guy wouldnt have it his words were "well i could pass it like that but then u woud go gunnin down the road straight past mr plod then there is a big wooshy noise u get puled over a yellowed and ur back here again"

Just un hook the actuator rod, easy fix. Just make sure you dont loose the little circlip, but if you do just use some fine wire to hold it on. If you cant take the rod off lossen to two 12mm bolts on the actuator rod bracket.

Location of bov is also pretty critical if not using the factory location.. the genius that put the R2D2 on my car put it under the front right guard, leaving a good 1.5-2m of piping before the throttlebody. At light throttling-off I get massive flutter :) can probably adjust the bov but I cbf and will deal until I get the stocker on.

    • I'm with both M & D here. There's little harm, unless you're prone to getting annoyed by over-enthusiastic displays of wild optimism and/or stupidity**. And there is potential benefit from basking in the warm glow of schadenfreude, if you get something from that. **The bookface generation seem to think that if they can see something on the internet, then it must have been posted just before, because there is clearly absolutely no history when everything is served up on some sort of dash, fresh for your algorithm fed delectation.
    • It's sure fancy, you better go faster now (although I notice it is still bluetooth to the braking system for now, maybe plumb it in?) Will be interesting to see what you think of it and how much you use the adjustment
