Hahah yeah i think dose is a pretty funny word lol but how it is related to flutter i do not know....

Why not make a 'dose pipe'?

I think that turbo cars that dont make any noise are just plain boring. >_<

*awaits flamage*

I think "dose pipe" is as funny as hell but it's an open forum and I'm sick of seeing new users hammered for asking questions or having different views to the majority :)

I dare you to join the minority group and see what happens to YOU :sorcerer:

Dose pipes, metal intake pipes, flutter.. it all means the same thing --- SSoooOTuTuTuTuTU!!

Who cares that you get defected for it, if you drive a skyline and a cop makes you pop your bonnet you get done for any stupid thing they feel like pickin on anyway...Mehhh!

PS-don't need to get off the topic and add other bs, relate your post to my original topic thats on page ONE!

I have one of those apexi metal intake pipes, I can confirm that the intake noise is louder than a plastic one. It is also more high pitched.

I tried blocking the BOV off, and yes full hektic flutter was abundant. But I wa not a fan of the overfueling, stalling and whatnot.

if it's being detrimental to my car, then the care factor is f*cking huge.

Couldn't think of anything worse that to intentially create mechanical problems to my car

What mechanical problems does a metal intake pipe create for your car?

he is talking about leaving the bov blocked off and lettting it surge its ass off every time the throttle body closes

it's arguable that letting the compressor surge its ass off every time causes damage, i agree

do a survey of 100 vl turbos with captain insano surge and ask them how many have done turbo rebuilds

care factor. soo! soo! soOOkutukutukutututu...

:ermm:

So are you going to post anything of interest or a bunch of letters each time?

Pointless threads get sent to the wasteland, and this isnt far from it now

I run a 6 inch straight metal pipe off the turbo with a small filter on the end, I beleive it should "by theory" suck in more cool air than my last setup which was a pod filter fitted up near where the standard airbox was mounted. The piping to the pod was mostly steel apart from 1 90degree bend which was rubber. Im still yet to test to see if the straight pipe is more responsive because my clutch is slipping so I don't want to drive it on boost till I get a new one.

And yes it makes it sound exactly like a vl turbo, its "doses" are insanely loud, too loud sometimes when you just want to drive normally.

Oh and I run after market computer so no afm and blocked bov - hence the very loud flutters.

    • Nope, but they are definitely one of the default choices. Well established.

    • Haha actually I did join back then under a different email address,  I couldn't re-activate my account so made a new one! I didn't post much anyway so not missing out on much. Amazing to see how the value of the cars and parts has changed over the years, also ACT section appears to be dead now. 
    • Thanks... It's in pretty good condition overall, probably due to not being drifted/tuned however being a daily driver has taken its toll. Had 100k on the clock when I got it, up to 180k now. Unfortunately it's not 100% dent free, it's got a small dent on FLH side and broken indicator from where I hit a small kangaroo at high speed. If you look at closely at pic #5 you might spot the dodgy trailer light repair my old man and I rigged up as temporary repair! - It's still there due to a combo of needing the car as daily driver and then too lazy/busy to fix properly. I've a couple of other minor accidents accidents as well but nothing major. One required a new front bar and unfortunately the smash repairer ordered the normal gtst one and not the aero bar. Needed the car back asap so just went with it, regretted ever since.
    • I can't believe that anyone is foolish enough to believe that the base maps are for any other purpose than to drive the car up onto the trailer/truck or gently creep it to the dyno. No matter how good they are, they can never be any better than the factory maps**, and only the foolish trust those on a significantly modified setup. **Yeah, yeah. I know there's also the difference between factory maps being fixed to certain injector sizes and MAP/AFM/VE relationships, and the likely aftermarket ECU base maps being better able to handle the sorts of changes that would render a stock ECU dangerous, like different sized injectors. But let's just ignore that for the moment, because the principle is still the same.
