Turbo Dose/flutter?

Hey guys,

last night on the cruise a black r32 was next to me and kept 'dosing' his turbo, making the tu tu tu noise.

It sounds like turbo flutter but the sound is much much louder and slower sounding.

I read somewhere on the net that to get this noise u need to have a straight pipe coming off the front of the turbo and either block off your BOV or completely remove it.

Does anyone know how to achieve this sound from your turbo? I am aware that some people think or bad for the turbo etc, but i am not worrying about that at the moment.

If anyone could advise me how this sound is achieved it would be awsome :laugh:

Yep thats right just disconnect your

Blow off valve.. It may leak a little tho depending on type.. And just have a different intake pipe.. Theres a full how to on the calais turbo site for the vls.. Gotta love that sound..

I've got the stock BOV on my car, and i have replaced the standard gasket with a "solid" tin gasket so when the BOV goes off it cant vent to intake, therfore forcing the air back thru the turbo. But how do i get it real loud like that r32 last night?

If you want a cheap and easy way of getting flutter you could use a Coke Can, lol. I did this with my car and it works perfect.

You just cut the Can open, take the BOV off, cut the Can to the same shape as the BOV, drill 2 holes in the Can for the BOV bolts, put the piece of Can in between where your BOV bolts onto the pipe and done. :laugh:

The BOV is still on there and all the hoses are still hooked up but the BOV is blocked off. The Aluminium is heaps strong enough to block it off.

Oh and you will also need a Pod Filter

Have fun! :laugh:

Even easier way? You take off the little piece of rubber hose that goes from the outlet of the BOV to the solid pipe which goes to the intake, shove a coke-bottle lid down about halfway, and put the hose back on as it was. The air can't get out because of the bottle lid and it still looks stock!

or you could do it the proper way which is easiest if you have a fmic. Relocate the afm to the I/C piping, probably just before the cross over pipe would work best and then that gives you more room and can make any sort of intake you would like as it only needs the pod on the end.

I would be using a piece of 3" pipe with the pod on the end that way the pod will go straight onto the end of the pipe and all you will need is a 3" to 2 1/2" reducer (silicon hose) to attach the pipe to the front of the turbo. 2 1/2" pipe gives you that real high pitched annoying flutter/dose. 3" would be more mellow and less high pitched.

Of course the bov has to be blocked/removed. It's a lot of stuffing around for a sound that isn't that great and get's very annoying. But, each to their own. good luck with it.

also one other thing. Im not sure what you would need to do with the breather hose that is attached to the stock intake. I'm not sure where you would re locate that, the plumb back pipe is obviously out of the equation now as you wont be using your BOV.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
