so do u just cut liek a square of a bit of can then do the bolts up and sandwich it in between?

good results?

its simple.

get any metal, cut it into the shape of the flange of the bov, drill 2 holes for the bolts. then put it between the bov and intake pipe.

All it does is stop the bov from venting the air back into the intake pipe, so yes you will get good results

i love sau, a question is ask then people feel the need to add their 2 cents about why they think its gay or similar.

it takes less effort to not post or read the topic

1 - It is gay.

2 - If it was meant to sound like that, they would.

3 - If anything, like I said it slows the turbo down unnecessarily & could cause damage to it, so why would you want to do that.

4 - It is gay.

For the record my car has wicked turbo flutter, but that's due to the size of the damn thing & possibly a crappy bov that will be getting replaced soon once I find a decent replacement. That sort of flutter sounds good, not stock turbo spec flutter that sounds like sin.

your opinion WHICH has nothing to do with the question ask in the 1st post

For f**ks sake man....

Yes you can put a piece of aluminium can in between the flange connection if you want, so that the air returns back through the turbo just to create a bit of noise.

I can also drive my car off a cliff if I wanted to, but it doesn't make it a good idea. That's my point, I don't give a f**k what you do to your car, but I'd like people to show just a bit of common sense if they are thinking about doing something with a negative impact.

and your reply adds what to his question?

the flutter he is after is bad for turbo he was advised that and you criticize the guy who points that out ?

Why damage your Turbo for Wank factor?

there is no proof that blocking off a bov or running no bov causing damage to the turbo or engine

gazza750; i answer his question, not very hard

so flutter is gay... EXCEPT if its YOUR bigger turbo? :laugh:

and if its slowing the turbo down, and damaging it like you claim, why do you let yours do it? :closedeyes:

    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
