wakeabby14 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 (edited) I have looked at some posts about turbo flutter however I just want to do it to test it out for a few hours, Do you only have to block the vacuum line from the divertor on the stock engine or have to block off all the lines going into the divertor? Yes i know this can cause damage in the long run, I just want to hear some sexy noises for a few hours haha! Im fitting my FMIC next week so I hear they flutter more when you get one is this also the case?Also do many of you guys have your CT9's meshed? Thanks josh Edited September 15, 2016 by wakeabby14 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EP70-PT Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Just remove and block everything related to the bov or recirc valve, it'll flutter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dan106 Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 The front mount makes the flutter sound so much better Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitenoize Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 No air filter and no bov Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Androo26 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I dont have a BOV and mine make the best flutter ever !! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The ct9 is a great sounding turbo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EP70-PT Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 And the damage to the turbo is in reaaaaaaaally long term... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dan106 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 From all the people who are in the know about turbos, literally none of them have said chatter kills turbos unless your running massive boost Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stalling a compressor will do damage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
richardc9052 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Here we go again. Ps I'm in the May do damage although I don't care enough to be bothered as it's cool as fuck camp Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 It doesn't even stall the compressor Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starlet__SR Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 It doesn't even stall the compressorThat flutter you hear when you let off? That's compressor stall. Google it, you'll be amazed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) Its the air being 'chopped up' by the blades.Maybe shortly it may stall or slow down, there will always be some drive Edited September 17, 2016 by Ollieh17 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FMuscle Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 But just by using logical thoughts, all known and myths aside, If you turn the wheel one way to compress air and produce power, then you shut down the throttle flap when the BOV is too small (or absent), the reversed pressure will slow down or stop the wheel. Then when you open the flap again, the wheel has the start spinning again from a very reduced rate, thus causing lag... And I always hear people complaining about lag. Without stating the obvious stress to the compressor wheel and bearings leading to aforementioned damage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
richardc9052 Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 But the problem here is that the force of the compressed air from the turbo has to be at least equal or greater than the force of the exhaust gasses in order to create a stall situation. Also given the housing and wheel sizes, the turbine size is generally smaller as it is made to make maximum use of the force from the exhaust vs the larger compressor side. Taking that into account means that the compressed air would have to create much more force than the exhaust to create a stall event in the turbo.What it will most certainly do is cause the exhaust wheel to be more difficult to turn which will slow the turbo. Seals are an area I'm unsure about as they may be susceptible to reverse pressure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
