haha this thread is interesting lots of different opinions . :closedeyes: But seriously the flutter sound is for PURE wank factor. Seen a guy in sydney city yesterday with the flutter on his r33 f**k it was loud and yes everyone which was walking turned around to look at the car i sure did heard the car a couple of streets away before it turned the corner. When you think about it all atmo BOV are for wank factor some more then others this is probably the 20th time i have seen a thread about BOV and everytime its the same shit.

Or you can do what i've done, you can take the gasket out of your BOV and replace it with a solid gasket (mine is cut out of tin), drill teh holes and put it in there....BOV is completely closed off and forces turbo flutter the proper way :P lol

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.

LOL dude just relax, someone was asking a question, no need to get worked up. I have my stock BOV blocked off simply so i get turbo flutter, it may or may not damage my turbo, i am not sure.

However, turbo flutter is personal choice. I personally like the sound of turbo flutter, you may not. It's personal taste!

So just take a chill pill mannnggggg

HAHAHA settle down ey no need to get so fired up i didnt say i wanted to do it i CLEARLY asked if it was a good idea or not...and now i know..cheers

+ get over your big expensive turbo!!

Erm yeah, cos I'm totally in love with it hey, I love talking it up at every opportunity

/sarcasm

I was just making the point that even by not blocking my bov off I get the flutter, and that is due to the size of it. On larger turbos with bigger compressor wheels they might have the same effect too, but it sounds a lot different to the flutter on a blocked bov running less boost. All I was doing was suggesting you don't do it, but like I said I don't give a f**k what you do to your car because it's your choice.

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

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

What the f**k is wrong with you?? Read my replies properly & actually think about it if you really want to attack every one I make to make yourself seem cool. Do that, and you would realise I am talking about completely blocking off the bov, the flutter you get from that, especially when you are running a relatively low boost level. The flutter my car makes isn't all the air going back through, just some of it that isn't really avoidable. In other words purely for the hope you now understand, it's not enough air going back through for me to consider it a dangerous level.

Yeah they asked the question so I gave my opinion, of which plenty of people agree with. I agree it is down to personal choice, but I'm only letting people know that it's not really worth it. You do know this is a forum in which peoples opinions are discussed about different topics right? I hardly call that getting worked up :)

      Ball bearing turbos

      The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.

      Ball bearing turbos

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist

      Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.

      Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
