which BOV makes this noise?
 
i was wondering which BOV makes the fluttering type of noise, kind of like pressure serge. im kinda getting tired of my HKS , i was thinking it might be the blitz bov that makes the noise? and which would be more reliable?

That fluttering is compressor surge (not a BOV) which is bad for the turbo. I think it's caused by a BOV spring that so tight that it won't activate at lower boost levels.

hmm. i also heard it on a turbo jetta, and some supra's

domesttuner 03-27-04 07:56 PM

he's talking about the one that is one the supra in 2fast2gay...i think it is greddy, but it may be hks

Like they said, it's compressor surge, which is a bad thing.

While it may get you some 'JDM Tyte' points, it is indeed a bad thing.

1SxyRXy 03-27-04 08:14 PM

well i didnt think you would get compressor surge with a bov especially an upgraded one, they are ment to stop compressor surge just wouldnt make any sense to have one if its just gonna do it anyways

domesttuner 03-27-04 08:43 PM

i'm telling you guys, it's not compressor surge, that is a real bov sound. i've seen one in action on a 2nd gen eclipse around here, and it is damn cool...

1SxyRXy 03-27-04 09:00 PM

yeah. i want one like that. im tired of my BOV being hella loud and getting alot of attenchin

I have a Sard R2D2 and it's a dual drive BOV. At release from light to medium throttle, it lets out the excess air in pulses to keep a tiny bit of pressure in the charge pipes for a little better response. At release from WOT, it is just a full discharge. Maybe that is what you're talking about. Also the blitz DD is the same way.

I think the noise is the same one that they used for Tokyo Xtreme Racer 2 (or Zero, for PS2 owners). It's the most expensive blow-off valve in the game. If anyone is interested, I can try to record the sound off of my TV.

I have heard people with 2 BOV's and they do that, almost sounds like a "shudder"

*edit* The one on the eclipse in 2f2f is teh Blitz DD....btw!

i was talking about micheal eams' supra at the first race, the gold one with greddy plastered all over it. i can't remember what the eclipse sounded like...guess i didn't pay attention to it very much:D

Verbal 03-28-04 12:44 PM

Oh dayum, i meant the first movie- i forget that was the sequal:D
