My Mates 33 And My 34

[Jamball]

my mate decided to place a pod filter on his stock 33 gtst...sounds cool right with the spool and shit lol

but his car started to feel like it was jumping after a while

so i decided to install a poddy myself on my stock 34...mines fine just getting the flutter dose lol hmmm bad i know

so what the hells going on?

its the cars way of telling you it hates you!

[Rekin]

what you mean 'jumping'?

airpod shouldnt cause any issues like that, its just an exposed filter.

Only thing i can think of is if its misfiring past 5000rpm but that would be related to worn out coilpacks and not related to airpod

on the r33 putting a pod on there shouldnt cause any problems at all. sounds like something else is wrong somewhere like ur plugs or coilpacks.

as for your r34 im curious is it fluttering cos u also have a front mount? if so thats cool but i hope u havent followed that trend of blocking off the standard blow off valve or whatever people do to make it flutter. i know 3 idiots i warned about that who did it anyway and all 3 blew their turbos

well what my mate did on his stock 33 is this:

1/ put a pod on

2/did a burn out

3/car started 'jumping' going from low to high revs vice versa

4/he put the stock air filer back on

5/car went back to normal

so made me think it was the poddy aswell lol

as for my 34 i dont have a fmic, all i have is a full atmospheric bov and a custom turbo back exhaust which i got just yesterday!!

but only flutters on low revs...so i think its ok?

[ashneel]

flutter on stock turbo is never ok

as for your mates R33 and his fully sick uleh pd doing his fully sick skidzzzzz

did you check if the AFM plug was plugged in and not just loosely plugged??? could also be vaccum leak? but if by putting a stock filter fixed it then ye i dunno. maybe it was the car telling he hates you lol

hmmm the blow of valve usually doesnt flutter it should make a whoosh noise unless its one of those VL turbo types. but yeh ur mates car however was it low on fuel? doin that burnout could have sucked in some gunk from the bottom of his fuel tank and thats what the car was running on. otherwise like ash said check the air flow meter is plugged in properly. other than that usually if u treat ur car like shit then it behaves like shit

It's the cars way of telling your mate he is an idiot.

But most likely the AFM was bumped/moved and not happy by the sound of that.

Oh - and good luck with your ATMO BOV - your car will probably start stalling and overfuelling.

I hope this was done on a race track.

[rgr34]

pod shouldnt cause issues like that, afm or its plug is my guess... my r34 flutters, hear it through the pod but thats with the plumbed back stock bov.

Flutter is for muppets.
