Guys,

Bit of a n00b question. I have a FMIC, relocated apex air filter and a HKS BOV. Just wondering how i would get her to flutter instead of dumping? Hope you can help :D

Thanks

Liam

assuming you have the HKS SSQV BOV wind the screw in as tight as it will go, that'll stiffen the spring. Mine stalls and under heavier boost will stall then dump, I have an early SSQV

I have streched a 2mm silicon hose over my HKS SSQV and the Vaccum pip on the inlet and mine flutters :) and dumps if i boost hard enough

Its all down to how much boost your running and the strength of the spring. Mine dumps under high pressure chatters at low. You can take it off and it will chatter all the time.

Is it still boosting ok? As in no leaks? Do you still just have the standard CT9?

If you dont have a relocated airfilter you wont hear it as loud also the standard CT9 has a very small comp intake and the wheel only has 8 blades rather than 12 so when it flutters it tends to sound like a woosh rather than a chatter.

I am still on a ct9 setup although i do have a relocated air filter, if i just block off the vacuum hose will it still flutter. rather than block them both? it made a DV kind of noise, even though there wasnt a DV installed. i love the sound of chatter so hopefully can get mine doing it. lol i do have a HKS SSQV but mine doesnt have a bolt for adjustment :S it was installed when i brought the car.

Yeah if you block the vac pipe that will stop the bov opening and cause flutter but like i said and you may have noticed a standard CT9 comp wheel is quite small and only had 8 blades so it doesnt give off much of a chatter noise due to the lack of blades it tends to sound more like a dump valve.
