most flutters i hear pitch up

Interesting, I thought it would be physically impossible for flutter to pitch 'up'.

Got any examples?

I'd be ultra keen to hear any flutter 'pitch up'.

* takes away andru's thread making privileges

please.

Exhaust wheels (Turbine wheels) do not have nuts.

They are fused to the shaft, And the compressor wheel is reverse thread.

Its more likely to sheer the shaft and snap it in half which i have seen :wave:

Compressor wheel is what I ment, yes.

Here is a pic of a spear turbo for my boat.

They get the sound by sandblasting the blow off valve with HKS sand

lol..I thought Bass Junkie was for real..I went...Wuuut the!! + club exec ><

I think the sound is from a closed loop BOV. It isn't an open atmosphere. <<< and no...if you have a plumb back or an atmo BOV installed, once the throttle closes, the excess air between the turbo and the TB is either being plumb to before the turbo or discharged into the air...making no fluttering sound at all.....depending on spring rate/amount of air vented or plumb back

I would imagine having a larger volume intercooler would produce a lounder fluttering noise due to larger volume of air closed off.....I think that is why the HKS GTR has such a loud fluttering noise....

also by having no BOV or bypass valve, as the throttle body opens again, there is a ready supply of air to be sucked into by the vacuum into the plenum...in contrast to having the air dispersed somewhere, requiring the compressor to work quite a duration to re-fill the vented air....so more responsive without the BOV...it will be damaging I suppose but who cares...they have plenty of turbos in stock, the main thing is to impress the press!!

I think the ceramic turbine is only at the exhaust end...if I remember correctly, the intake is made up of sumthing different just to prevent the turbine from smashing to bits "ceramic blasting" the cylinder... the ceramic turbine tends to shoot out of the exhaust if boosted to about 1.0 - 1.2bar..or so I was informed ><....so the ceramic bit will not be affected whatsoever by producing the flutter....

I used to think that the fluttering come from the "sequential BOV" due to it's name "sequential"...it'll be amazing to note how many ppl think along the same line~~... and sad to say I eded up with a HKS sequential BOV

I went ..huh where's the su-to-to-to-to-tooo sound...

and buy those HKS sands...it works magic..my engine is all shiny remember to flush with turtle wax after~~

    • Me, I would happly spend some more coin on better tyres for my street car  Will they work, yes, of course, but why substitute some dry grip/braking distance, and wet weather grip/braking distance on what is really old tech to save some coin on your "precious" street car In the end it might not be you that farks up, it's the thousands of other idiots on the street that you need to worry about  For a street car that gets some "fun time", I have found that a quality tyre that can handle dry, wet, cold (Canberra gets pretty cold) and hot conditions, which may costs a little more, is great insurance  From my experience with them (driving around Goulburn in the winter) the RE003's are pretty poor in cold and/or wet conditions on the street If RS4's didn't hate gripping in the cold I would be running them always on the street,  great in the dry, OK in the wet, but, they do hate the cold, with a passion, I run PS5's year round now, basically, I've found the PS5 to be a great year round street tyre for all conditions, they last well, and are mid range pricing wise TL;DR. Tyre choice is probably like what brand and grade oil you should use, ask 10 people, and get 10 different answers... LOL
