Took it for a run on PRIVATE PROPERTY (cough cough) and it sounded great... none of those stalling issues either...

As mentioned in above post, you can drive it softly with no flutter and if you want it to flutter just give it some stick!!!! :)

All is good...

(now to take it off so that i can drive on the public roads again withought being defected by the boys in blue....)

Mine is the other way round. I got a HKS 2530 and a Greddy BOV plum back and has flutter at low revs and in med revs you get flutter then a little psshhh and when i give it stick i get alot of pshh and very very small flutter. I have an adaptor plate between the pipe and bov which i need to check to see if it's blocked or not. Sounds awsome but thinking of going back to stock just so it's one less thing the cops can pick on.

Yea, I know what you mean dude! It's one of the first things cops look for... And who's to say some cops won't b sitting in a shopping centre car park when you go to change gears...

All of a sudden you see, two red and blue flashing lights in your rear mirror and hear woop woop!!! :(

is it true that some people have been pulled over and asked to rev their car???

That's why I was trying to find a way of blocking it off making it look stock but also wanting some flutter when I give it a good bit of stick...!

Chestnut, the spring rate in your BOV is what is causing the flutter on throttle release on low pressure and has the wssssh on throttle release after giving it plenty. I would highly doubt that you would have the BOV blocked off.

I am running the standard BOV in the sedan, and it flutters in gearchanges under load/high boost.

Only mods that i think contribute to this effect are the trust metal intake pipe, the standard BOV return pipe (which has been slightly modified to accomodate the metal intake), and the blitz pod filter. So it's a very standard looking set up. No coke can / blocking plate bizzo

Take you BOV off and you might just find it been blocked by a coke or JD can :P

well seeing as its another SAU;SA members old car, do you know something I don't Krish? LOL

I haven't seen anything like that though, have taken the crossover pipe off a few times now to replace plugs etc.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
