R33 Stock Bov Flutter Sound - Whaddaya Reckon Of This?


Recommended Posts

When I was a kid I used to cut up the lids of margarine tins and put them in the spokes of my pushbike.

It would make this noise when i rode and I'd get so excited, it was like having a real motorbike....

So I guess, putting a coke can in your BOV is kind of like having a real race car yeah....

No ? Well, you go ahead and flutter away and just dont come back crying when your core bearings and compressor blades are all stuffed. lol

I've probably owned more turboed cars than you, I've never ran a BOV and I'm still not runing one.

I'm still not crying.

You f*#@Kin idiots..... The 'flutter' sound is called compressor surge. it is NO GOOD for your compressor blades, it slows down your turbo from spooling in between gears and in worst cases, f*#ks up your compressor blades.

Sometimes when people get too ambitious with sizing their aftermarket turbo and get the housing sizes wrong, or over fueling at idle because they didn't reconfigure their fuel map properly after they fit a bigger turbo, compressor surge OR 'flutter' is the result.

The whole purpose of having a BOV is to release the excess boost so it doesnt slow down your turbo in between gears.....its for response.....WTF would you sacrifice response for a sound ?????? fu*kin idiots

Man, I really wish these kids learn about the fundamentals of engine mechanics before they make a total dick of themselves or worse, totally ruin their cars.

Nothing you said is correct. Perhaps you should learn the fundamentals of 'engine mechanics' before you make a dick of yourself.

That, or nice troll lol.

    • Oof. One of my mates has an R34 GT-R that he initially was a "I want to go twins for response and convenience" on his stock 2.6 with Kelford 272 cams, but his friends are pests and were always in his ear about their place being in the bin.   Eventually one of the 2860-5s decided to add it's own input and force his hand, so he conceded and went for a Pulsar 6262G ("G35 900") with T4 0.85 hotside.    Here's an overlay of the results, same cams, same stock bottom end, same boost, same fuel, just from a pretty tidy 2860-5 install to a Pulsar turbo on a 6boost maniifold on BP98.   Worth mentioning here, it may seem like a dead horse thing but the dyno plot doesn't tell the story of how much better it is to drive - transient response has completely changed the car, he used to have flat foot shifting to stop it having to wind up again on gear changes even at >7000rpm... now it builds boost faster than that even short shifting.   It's 100% transformed the car before you even consider how much better it holds on: Pulsar and Garrett aren't the same, but from our experience if you're just looking for a better drive and the ability to make the same or more power I think the divided G30 770 would probably be the smallest I'd go to.
    • Great work Duncan, any events local you will give it a test once all done? 
    • Sweet, yeah hoping stock gears will hold up. May use the transbrake feature on hill climb starts so that will test it.
    • Yeah, the thread is only nearly 20 years old.
    • Been down in Tassie for 2 weeks (a cruise, not a race for once) but spent a little time on her when I got back. I worked out the injector settings in the PowerFC were not correct for nismo 555s, set those to 66% +10ms and added a little air at closed throttle, set the timing (approximately, because it has some weird non 15o cells around idle) and now she starts and idles properly. She purrs like a kitten (ignore the co2 alarm in the background, I did  ) 20250518_171052.mp4 Next step, off for run-in, tuning and alignment!
