Flutterdump?


Recommended Posts

What is flutter dump? the otherday a r33 blew past me and did this i wana know how to do this

thanks :)

Are you referring to the blow off valve noise or "turbo dose" noise?

If so here's a thread all about it.

i didnt think it was even possible to get wastegate flutter. I think you may be meaning an external wastegate? if the car was really loud going past while on boost, it would be that. its a screamer pipe that goes onto the wastegate. this is illegal to have, but on the right setup it sounds good.

Flutterdump is when the BOV is a cheap POS or the spring in the BOV is too stiff and U back off and it starts fluttering then the BOV vents. It's considered a problem and can be fixed with a much softer spring. As long as the BOV is plumbed back like it should be, it can be soft enough to stay open on idle without and probs. As soon as U give it the tinyest bit of throttle, it slams shut.

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
