Air intake - how do I get turbo flutter?

[sexspecvr4]

just been looking under the bonnet of my galant and im thinking of doing a custon air intake with alloy or stainless hard piping do u guyes have any experance doing or has any one looked into doing this? i just want some turbo flutter!!!!!!!!

Which part do you mean? From the MAF to the turbo's? From the front of the car to the MAF, or from the turbos to the intercooler then onto the throttle body?

turbos to afm oh wat is maf

This might answer your question. Jacked from this thread.

the boost cut on a cold day is kinda common.

Remember these cars use a MAF which basically detect airflow, not boost. So if it sees airflow above its limit it will induce boost cut. Since the maf helps compensate for temperatures, it cuts it even easier in cold weather because of the denser air.

not much good to me mate how would i get turbo flutter ????

 

[ygoslo]

Best way to get sik flutterz is probably to buy a VLT.

galant were talking about matie

Well Adam, maybe it's me but I thought that the flutter sound was a sign that things aren't going well for the turbo setup?

Turbo Flutter explained, with response/retort

I may need to find something more with an engineering background and not some forum admin though.

Just curious

To get turbo flutter, remove the factory blow off valve, and block the holes.

And fit a pod filter, you will get mean flutter.

Or simply turn the blow off valve around and block the manifold feed.

Stick some pigeons in the boot for even more flutter.

thats a good one paul! lol

Carsten is right, do it that way and you'll get some interesting noises coming from the turbos

Or put on a HKS Super Sequential Blow Off valve

Makes the sound you're after when you shift without damaging the turbos

Psssssshhhh-ptsh-tsh-tsh-tsh

LOL, I love flutter threads.

never heard one do this to be honest - always been a whistle sounding blow off.

Also to amplify your compressor stall slowly leading to failing turbos, aka 'flutter', any metal piping will help, along with a shorter metal pipe to the turbos inlet will help. Also better flow back to the mouth of the turbos could also help, as the air to stall them would flow easier...

also yes, just tighten the blow off valve spring (if aftermarket and has an adjustment) or take it off all together and block the pipes. your choice. each will eventually damage your turbos, but it will sound great in the mean time.

Ill hit up my friend coz he's got a bov that can make a flutter sound. The ones that do it legit have a bov that works well its how you boost that makes the difference. His you have to light boost and light decelerate an it makes an awesome flutter sound. Not terribly loud though, those one are guys trying to kill their turbo asap

The HKS flutter noise is mostly due to the spring tension..

See here for why it makes the distinctive noise: http://www.streetunit.com/HKS_SSQV_Kit_Nissan_Silvia_180SX_RPS13_PS13_p/71004-kn019.htm

Mine makes the flutter under medium amounts of boost, but makes a high pitched sort of squeek if you are doing a hard gear change and forcing the valve closed while there is still pressure in the pipework.

And yeah its a heck of lot different from turbo flutter, which has been said is a sure sign you are killing your turbos, with boost trying to get back out the way it came in. Which also means you have to spool all over again when you go back on the throttle..
