Hi guys,

I am wanting to get a different BOV but i want the flutter sound valve not the typical whossshh. What are the names and models of any flutter sounding BOV's that you guys know of. And if any of you have one are you willing to swap for an HKS BOV?

your help is much appreciated,

Thanks

JL

I never knew u could buy BOV's which make the flutter sound

ive got a factory bov with an fmic and i get the flutter....pretty sure its only the fmic which makes that noise

Or by removing something around your turbo so air hits it harder or against the wastegate ??? which creates the flutter...

shouldnt cause to much damage

thats same sort of principle for VLs when they wake on a cooler and get flutter

my turbo is still in good nick and thats running some high boost as well

but then again stock skyline turbos r made from pottery clay :-p so i wouldnt really risk it..

nick lets test it on urs :-)

Get a BOV, plumb it back, and get performance out of your car.

I think he's more concerned about the noise his car makes rather than the performance of the thing. :D

runnning no BOV hinders performance... u serious??? haha

Dead serious...... what are you laughing at?

:slap:

*sigh*

well from memory a BOV unless running high boost is not going to improve performance on anything... infact im pretty sure in one of my speed mags where they had a 4 page spread on them and what they do they are only designed to release pressure to extend the life of your turbo.

    • 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?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
