Iv got a hks ssq bov that doesn't flutter was wondering if there's any way to make it? Don't get me wrong I love the sound of the standard sound but would like to hear Wat it sounds like.fluttering any ideas?

There is a bolt on the back for adjustment..

Thanks

Want flutter? Don't run a bov. A bov is designed to stop compressor surge (flutter)

How do I achieve flutter with out surging?

Blank your bov or block the vacuum line(not with stock bov because it will still open on full boost). im not sure on the hp limit but i wouldnt do it over 300hp. someone should be able to shed some better light on the subject.

^ Shit post is shit

Tightening the BOV or blocking it is just going to cause compressor surge. Stao told me to avoid any compressor surge but I really do like the sound of it.

Only if you tighten it too much.. I think you will find that true compressor surge is actually when the engine cant swallow the boost the turbo is throwing at it.

It will frighten you...

Cool story bro!

having no BOV does not cause compressor surge :thumbsup:

Agreed. It was a simple question with a simple answer. if you dont like flutter, then f**k off and dont post. Noone cares what you have to say.

So anyway, back OT, im guessing there will be a little locking nut you need to undo, then wind the screw in a few turns, and re lock the nut.

Just try it on different settings untill you find a sound you like.

I have a Greddy Type RS and did the same. I didnt want flutter, but having it really loose sounded poop, so i tightened it up a touch. I get flutter at very low load/boost and light VAC, but once the boost is up a few psi it opens properly.

I dont see it causing any harm. Has been like it for a year or so now.

Thanks mate did just that it sounds great but I'm running standard turbo standard boost and it sounds like its coming out of the pod but coz its low boost it can't do n e damage can it ?

I ran my stock turbo with a blocked BOV since I bought the car. Took it out, there is very minimal shaft play. Never had any issues. The sound will be coming out of your pod.

Some people think flutter is the bov opening and closing rapidly... I don't think this happens. Although those are generally youtube comments. I'm gonna reinstall my turbosmart BOV after I get my plumb back adapter and tighten it up so I get flutter on low boost but don't risk damage on higher boost.

lol to all the people saying surge isnt flutter, they are teh saem thing as the car above on the dyno, just happen when you lift off instead of under load. As far as the turbo is concerned it is the same thing(running too far to the left of the compressor map past the surge line)

Reverb.

The trapped boost pressure when the throttle plate is closed has no here to go but back out through the compressor turbine and out the airfilter.

A BOV releases this pressure so it doesnt have to force its way back through the turbine.

I run my BOV's fairly tight so at low boost you get a reverb(flutter) but anything over 9psi the bov helps to release the pressure.

I have never seen or heard of a turbo dieing due to this.

Compressor surge is not flutter.

    • So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House  
    • Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.
    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?
