Hi guys,

before ppl say dont worry about the sound or as long as it goes,im just trying to understand still why my hiflow turbo which is a pu hypergear hiflow turbo .82 doesnt have loud sucktion noise hardly at all like my stock turbo.

i have an aftermarket b.ov plum back,3 inch metal intake pipe and drift pod.same as wat i had on my stock turbo.

the car pulls fine been on dyno power run but not really tuned full on.it does make a slight flutter and the pssshhh sound from the bov but at almost fullboost/full throttle.

theres hardly any sucktion sound as i thought this turbo being big and all would sound awesome.the minimal sucktion sound ive noticed does sound a lil rough like shhhrrrrr not that clean loud type.

is there some problem with my set up to this turbo or maybe thats how they are......

Does anyone have any experience on these turbos or how they sound cause doing my head in lol at the moment cause feels great but doesnt sound rite....

Wouldnt worry bout the sound if it drives good mate ive found the stock turbo induction noise to be quite loud. Ive gotta Garrett Gtx3071 on my car and i was bit pissed like you initially as you can barely hear my turbo compared to the stockie and its a 560hp turbo lol! But enjoy the stealth sound mate as it doesnt attract the wrong attention

What about the actual spooling/suction noise from pod is it loud sargerx8 on yours when hitting boost? i removed the b.o.v and hardly hear any flutter at all or suction noise from pod :/ ...

what intake type pipe and pod do you have ?

i got the rb25 turbo on my rb20 and its really noisy, sucking and hissing, probly the wastegate slightly open when not on full throttle,

When i put my foot down i cant hear the turbo hardly at all, just a big pshh when i take the foot off.

Try driving around with less throttle. or if that doesent work you could set it up shit like mine with no computer upgrade or boost controller.

Split dumps can sound cool too, i got a cheap and nasty one (JJR) and it has a stupid flange bit which doesent fit and has to be ground back so it makes a whizzing sound when the gasses go around it.

Im hoping to eliminate some of the noise, its ALL THE TIME and im over it.

Yea i do have an upgrated ecu and boost controller and still nothing...can hear the turbo spool slightly when i put my foot down and a big psshhh release from bov. sound like n/a lol

everyone is over the sound/noise spool and i wanna be over it too haha...maybe get it checked out by someone just incase.

My Garrett 2871 is pretty loud all round.

If you want noise, HKS t51r KAI, you will have a jet under the hood lol!

I think it's just rb's stock turbos are loud a prob the loudest standard turbo I've ever heard.

The new turbo will be more efficient and the blades will be more aerodynamic etc and it will be doing a better job with less air/friction resistance hense your power increase and less noise.

Wouldn't worry bout it mate.

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
