gday ppls im fairly new to the modding scene but im eager to learn as i just got my first r33 gtst and i been hearing this sound om otherturbo imports where u can hear the turbo make a kind if ch ch ch ch wind down noise....i reakon this noise sounds tuff but i have no idea how to get it...is it from an aftermarket BOV or sumthin else????? ne help is appreciated

this noise i called compressor surge. Its caused by nt running a bov or blocking up the one you have.

it might eventually f*ck up your turbo. When the Throttle body closes the compressed air comes back and through the turbo. The compressor wheel the chops up the air.

Nissan put it there for a reason

correct me if im wrong but i believe sequential bov's make that noise while still venting all that nasty pressure away from your turbo. thats the difference between a normal bov and a sequential, sequentials make that ch ch ch noise...

dunno bout sequential, but my super sequential does that. its normal and healthy.

Sell ur car and buy a VL turbo if u want that sound :)

I had that sound when i got my new turbo setup and had no BOV's on. It sounds tuff but ***s ur turbo up, plus causes extra lag between gear changes coz the air going back around to the compressor slows down the blades during gear changes

or just buy a sequential, a new turbo is a bit of an overkill

i have a arc bov sequential that makes the noise, and is as good for the turbo as a normal bov

I never said to buy a new turbo.

And the sound any BOV makes is not the same as the sound the air makes when it gets chopped by blades spinning at over 80,000rpm.

replace your stock airbox with a pod filter. You'll hear the ch ch ch sound easier without having to replace your BOV.

I did this and it sounds freaking mad when I take my foot off the gas slowly.

I've got an A'PEXi Power Intake (pod filter) and I've been told it's one of the loudest.

mate, I've got 2 BOVs hooked up at the moment (stock plumbback and Blitz SS) and I get the flutter sound. Explain that. Is my BOV on too tight? No, as I can still hear the air pass out through the Blitz BOV...

A pod filter makes a world of difference.

The flutter sound is not the same as the DUT DUT DUT sound of air being sliced up by the comp blades

as far as im aware, differenty bov and filter combo's will give different noises as not 100% of pressure is released through the bov on ANY bov, some will always go back to the turbo, the better the bov the less that will travel back. so in many cars you will still here a flutter, just depend on how much u hear will be determined by the bov and filter and turbo and boost psi... correct me if im worng this is my opinion only

have you noticed how sequential or twin chamber bovs have 2 vacuum lines?

this is to open the 2 pistons.

these are designed that way to have less chance of leakage under severe boost applications.

that is the only reason for sequential or twin chamber bovs.

it does not make any sort of sequential noise.

a bov that is working properly should make a single release sound and nothing else.

sure the volume and pitch may vary (comparing a turbo smart to a HKS SSQV's high pitched squeek noise), but it should only make a single release sound..

not multiple chu chu chu or other chopping sounds..

if you are hearing ANY noise from the air filter on a car with an ATMO venting bov, then the bov is not doing it's job properly.

any sort of fluttering or chopping sound is from the turbo chopping the air and can be heard from the air filter..

the flutter noise can also be different from car to car depending on a number of things..

size of turbo, the material used for the inlet pipe, the intercooler, the type of material used for cooler pipes, the length of these pipes...

ever hear a skyline with a stock cooler and blocked bov and pod... it is like a trrrrrr sound.. then same car with a new FMIC and larger and longer cooler pipes, the sound is completely different.. reason is that the pipes are of larger capacity and the air is forced out with less pressure and the fluttering sound is changed to a more deeper and slower flutter..

I hope this makes sense..

damn i got a $600 bov on my r31 that flutters, time to get out the allen keys and loosen her up a bit i think

    • If you get 12v at one of the relay pins with IGN on, and 12v at another for about 3 sec when you turn the key from ACC to start, then yes you can just earth the relay trigger pin. Just have a look at the top of the relay, it should tell you which pin needs earth when the 12v signal is sent (or if it's not clear, just post the pic and we can work it out). If you always have 12v at 2 pins with IGN on, they it is earth triggered by the ECU which makes it harder to fix (you really need to check the ECU pin is earthing when it should, and if so it is a wiring issue from there to the relay.
    • Tomei make a 1.5mm restrictor, I'd just use that.
    • Got the gearbox in and the front drive shafts.
    • Hi There I went through a rabbit hole of reading about Xenon headlights and the ADR regulations for having them installed. As people have been defected by running factory xenon I was researching in ways to make them compliant. Everyone always say needs to be self leveling and have washer installed, which I don't necessarily agree with. For this argument I'm using R34 as reference as I'm more aware on the construction of the headlight compared to the R33 Xenon, which may still be the exact same case.   For the self leveling clause taken from ADR 13 - Installation of Lighting and Light Signalling Devices on other than L-Group Vehicles As you can see the bold text "these manually adjustable devices from driver seats" are fine to use. As Series 1 Xenon model headlights do have a 4 level adjuster on the right near the ignition (however not series 2) then these model are consider compliant in that argument.   For the Self Cleaning aspect of this argument clause taken from ADR 13 - Installation of Lighting and Light Signalling Devices on other than L-Group Vehicles Now i can understand the argument that Xenon will need a washer as they are over 2000 lumens, but I clicked on the 12 at the end of that sentence and it takes me to the end notes which states R34 for headlight lenses are plastic, not sure if PL is mark as I don't currently have my skyline to confirm that marking is there. But could you not technically get a lenses with the PL marking on it and then get away with the argument that you need a washer. I went through a quick read of the adr and might have missed something else that may cause them to be non-complaint.    But wouldn't these technically be complaint headlights   Would love to hear other people input on this and shed some light   Edit In regard to the the washer portion I might be mistaken ADR 45 (which I believe is Regulation NO.45) states 12 cd (candela) I dont understand that portion in regarding to calculating the candela if anyone can shed some light. Otherwise I guess throw in a washer for the headlight and you definitely comply.
