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

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
