Just wondering if anyone knows how to get that wicked 'flutter' sound, when backing of the throttle on a turbo. Im not sure, but I think it may be the wastgate? Or is it a particular type of BOV? Heaps of tough VL RB30's do it, specially that yellow Bresciani racing monster!

Block off you blow off valves so that all waste air from closing the throttle has to go back through the compressors on your turbos. This will cause massive surging to your turbos - some people say it damages them - and make that flutter sound. Problem is you slow the turbos down every time you hear it, causing it to take longer to get back on boost.

In short it isn't the sound of an effective street turbo setup unfortunately.

Yeah my car makes that noise, u just have to push it really hard to get it. Reason mine does it is that my stock BOV cant support the ammount of boost im running. Its not good for the turbo so dont do it. Need to find me some Twin GT-R BOV's.

Im puttin one of those new exhaust tips on so it goes, wooo wooooo wooo woooooooo

pwwahaha "das early in the mornin , got be up cooking breakfast by den" magic !wonder if my bovs will make it on sandra sully's table this arvo ?

i just bought a new stock bov coz the stock one that was on the car when i bought it had been welded shut to stop it from opening

i'll take a pic tonight of the bottom of it to give you an idea..... sounds cool for a bit, but you get sick of it lol, and it does slow you down, coz the turbo almost needs to respool after every gear change.

mine flutters with a turbosmart BOV.. the tension in the spring is just a little tighter so that the air cant hold the piston open for long, so it does lots of little sharp bursts

only does it when you ease off the throttle tho, when you let off fully its just a normal bov sound

Yeah, when I took my car for a drive once it was cleared by customs it made that sound, turns out there was a screw in the stock bov, so they had blocked it off for that sound. Sound was sweet, but does the turbo no good. I haven't heard the sequential bov, would it make a similar sound though????

I CALL BULLSHIT

Bullshit yourself mate, you dont know anything about my car. A stock BOV cant handle 17 Pounds of boost...

Damn i didnt know people were so dumb in western australia, guess its true what they say

Considering most stock bov's leak in between 12-15psi, that's where the bullshit factor come into it, and if you're not bullshitting your losing power. I'm sure running 17psi with it is doing your turbo a world of good too.

    • That's not a transistor --- it's marked ZD1 which makes it a zener diode. As to what the breakdown voltage is, not enough there to divine.
    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.
    • It's almost certainly the same as the one next to it.

    • South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).
