Well, I'm not sure if this is a joke or not but..........the flutter comes from not having a blow off valve. Just take yours off (if you actually own a car with a turbo) and plug it up. But the lag between gears pisses me off so I go back to the trusty HKS SSQV. Please do searches, questions like these have been answered sooooo many times.

Hi mate.

The only such thing as a perfect BOV is a re-circ one. And sounds like you dont want that.

Please have a search around.

You'll find most of your questions will probabl have been asked once or twice before :D

i did try looking but i didn't find them. thanks anyway

You will hate your atmo bov once your car starts stalling on freeways, traffic lights and other busy places.

Been there done that.

If you really want to waste your money on a bov, get a GFB Stealth fx. They sound good and can be adjusted manually.

He's said he has a PFC in his other thread. If you put an atmo bov on you can tune out all the negative effects that it has on the stock ecu.

Its true. I bought my car with an aftermarket atmo BOV (the sort that goes Psssshhh)

Sure as my first turbo car it put a grin on my face but trust me, I wish I had the stock re-circ BOV handy. Doesn't look all that cool when you pull upto a set of lights and promptly stall. Also causes overfueling when changing gears (loud pops)

The stalling was annoying me so much I went down and bought a piece of rubber hose and some cable ties and did a home DIY job of MAKING my bov plumb back. It kinda worked, doesn't stall nearly as much now but it still has issues, the rubber hose doesn't make the best seal around the BOV vent hole so its still venting about half of it.

Its a pain in the ass I tells ya.

And having driven my car for a year or so now with the atmo BOV, you get sick of it pretty quickly. Do I prefer the psssh noise? I guess, it does turn heads. Is it worth the stalling issues? No way.

Not having ever used the stock BOV (that vents back in) I wouldn't know for sure but I would assume it would make some noise anyway would it not?

    • Behrman is great quality stuff. My 34 has some serious clouding as well but I’m too nervous to try and replace the glass myself so I haven’t bought them yet. 
    • This might be true if you live in NZ but I can't see how this could be true for us locals here.  I've found the customer support for Haltech to be absolutely amazing. I've turned up to Haltech and spent entire days with their tech support guys, they've even helped me with wiring dramas that had nothing to do with their products.  They have the best customer support of any company I've dealt with, I can't imagine how my experiences with them could possibly be any better.
    • If you want to do a single throttle body conversion easily, you won't need to pull anything apart. Take the linkage from your throttle off the linkage controlling the ITBs. Now open the ITBs wide open, and lock the linkages in said position. Now add a single throttle body onto the front of your inlet plenum. No it's not ideal for the last nth of a kw, but it'll be a lot better than what you're already trying to do...   PS, ITBs can be so damn hard to tune from, because roughly 20% movement in a throttle body equates to a change in roughly 80% of its flow (Hence power). When you add up the flow limitations of those small throttle bodys, it is a LOT higher than that of a single large throttle. Hence, TPS is very very sensitive with them, and you do a LOT of work with sensor fusion, and some Maths behind the scenes to make those blends nice, and be smooth.
    • Yep, when Haltech purchased Adaptronic, and all of the Adaptronic staff, including Andy went with it, it took Haltech to the next level. Haltech wanted Adaptronic as they wanted things like Andy's fuel models, and some other IP, AND they wanted Andy too as he is brilliant! Andy has spoken about the incompatibilities between the old 1500 stuff vs Nexxus, and it totally makes sense. It's not JUST software that is different, there is huge changes in the underlying hardware too. It's why Haltech has had soooo many changes in the last couple of years, in terms of Hardware, and Software, and why it has become so damn Amazing. Why do you think guys like Rob Dahm with his quad rotor, went from running Adaptronic's to running Haltechs? Andy. Pretty much, Haltech these days, is Adaptronic, but with more funds behind it, and more staff, and hence Andy's visions, and visions of other people that he helps shape their great visions, into amazing new products. All the new Nexxus gear, whole new software for it, new and better dashboards, the apps that will run on headunits and NOT be slow to respond! I understand people being burnt in the past, but if you're ragging on a company, about products and issues from many years ago, it's more a reflection on yourself, not looking or keeping up with new stuff. In which case, those people should be going back to PowerFC and Nistunes as the ECU's to rave on about...
