It's called 'dosing' in the VL world, also know as 'flutters', but around here it's best described as 'compressor surge'.

It's the sound of the air bouncing off the turbine blades when the butterfly to the intake plenum is closed. Normally all this pressurised air get's released by the Blow Off Valve, but if you don't have one, it does that.

Different length, shape and designs of pipes make different noises...

It's either a HKS Super Sequential BOV or some cheap ass BOV or like what others have said compressor surge.

HKS Super Sequential BOV = Wank (Only useful on highly tuned cars that are running a lot of boost and the stock one cannot handle it any more)

Compressor Surge = Say goodbye to your turbo.

Is that the HKS SSQV BoV? I've been trying to convince a mate to buy one for his evo, but all the vids I've seen of it its a sharp, high pitched noise rather than the VL flutter.

Just curious, is "dosing" unique only to the VL, or is there a specific reason VL owners choose it?

Yeah either it's the HKS BOV or like others have said with the metal pipe.

Any turbo car can make the noise, it just depends on the BOV set up or whatever the owner does to it.

The stock BOV should not make any noise, at least no "Stu Tu Tu".

But if you put on an air pod, while still having your stock BOV, you will get a nice "Suction" noise then a "Choo" at the end (Only when on boost).

What the hell is that noise? I've heard it twice now, both times from VLs. Is it some tricked out BoV?

If you ask me I think it sound ridiculous. My girlfriend was in hysterics for about 10min as we drove beside this thing.

Thanks.

LOL! just search "VL turbo dose" on youtube,,theres thousands of videos on that stuff,,apparently they're a favourite with wog guys and their significant others

my ceffy doses like an athlete on the roids, but it comes from factory with no recirculation valve, and still runs stock boost on a stock turbo. all you have to do is take out the intake resonator and bolt in a pod and I get instant flutters.

GAGF if that's bad for the turbo, it came from factory like it and has run for 180,000 kms with no damage to the turbo or engine.

that is incorrect.

the only relation a BOV has to flutter/dosing is whther its blocked or not. the type of flutter/dose depends on the width, length and material of the induction pipe. the turbocharger does play a roll aswell.

all a bov does is hold the air trapped in the piping. so it bounces around and goes back through the turbo, for the turbo wheel fins to chop up and make a stuttered noise.

a SSQV HKS BOV has nothing to do with dosing....its just like any other BOV... but produces a whistle like sound when air goes through it. if you block it off, its the same as your OEM bov and every other blocked bov. does nothing special.

the Dose you hear on VLs sound like stupid dolphins or piegons as you heard.

they run a small metal pipe, no bov, and multiple bends to magnify thehigh pictched stuttered noise.

alot of the high powered veicles in japan and here automaticlly produce this sound as a side affect for high horsepower aplications but usally produce a much deeper tone due to larger turbos.

this is because piping is usally much larger due to larger turbocharges and dont run many bends.

although the title says HKS SSQV, its incorrect.

personally i hate the high pitched doses, which have been attached to wogs and VLs. but i am madly in love with the noise similar to the 650hp R34 GTR videoed above. would prefer it over a OEM "CHOO" or whistle anyday

the vl boys cut a gap in there intercooler piping to put there afm so that there is no restriction between pod and turbo.

using diffrent lengths and angles of piping gives diffrent pitch noises.

alot of the guys that i went drifting with on the track a while ago had it, sounds sick when your using your accelerator to control the slide.

      I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.

      I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.

      Yet another RB Neo misfiring thread after reading all the others.

      By uchoa · Posted

      Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
