^^ lol.

block the blow off valve off mate, and get a pod filter :rofl:;) . a dose pipe is another name for a front pipe (exhaust) that you bolt onto your dump pipe :)

Na man, a dose pipe is a metal pipe off the turbo!

You got your terminology all mixed up.

Coundown to thread lock... 10..............9...........8...........7........6

But just to help you out, and save you from using the search function.

1. Get pod

2. Get FMIC

3. Get metal pipe from pod to turbo

4. Relocate AFM btwn turbo and throttle body.

5. Block up BOV

6. Drive around dosing like a mad kent, glaring at anyone who looks.

7. Reverse all of the above as soon as you realise dosing is the domain of full hectic muzteks in VL turbos.

Good luck

that who was asking for ? now come joey not on here SpEaK1n 1n C4Ps with bros on the end of every sentence.. if you dont have a valid comment shut the f**k up.

blocking your factory bypass valve to get your hektic flutterz will damage your turbo in the long run. no harm in running a metal pipe from the AFM to the turbo though (other than marginally increasing the heat soak from the engine of the air going in).

dose pipe is the metal pipe between the turbo and the AFM... combined with a blocked bypass valve the air is forced back through the turbo when the throttle is shut, which chops it up... the metal pipe then amplifies the chopping noise and you have your "dose".

having a dose pipe won't win you any respect from anyone who isn't fully sik hektic though... in fact they might laugh at you.

I have flutter, but not really by choice. As soon as i hit boost, my standard BOV opens. Its rooted. So i just made up a plate to block the BOV off. I prefer flutter than the annoying sound of a BOV anyday.

MRdeanos, im no expert but depending on the turbo you have, over time is can cause damage to you turbo. As not having a BOV is causing the trubo the spin the opposite way when you back off the gas.

Can anyone tell me which turbo is more flutter friendly lol? is it roller bearing? Sorry im a noob...

EDIT: Funky monkey, what do you mean by a metal pipe between the turbo and the turbo?

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
