^no such thing.... its a turbo xs type "H" or "RFL", or a greddy type "S".... if it is a type s from greddy then it can flutter.

adding a washer to prevent flutter is the exact opposite of what you want to do... remove all washers. the spring pressure from the stock spring is a bit much for the stock turbo so it will fluter - 5 psi

i mean we dont even know exactly what bov it is..... if its the type s you can adjust it from soft to hard. if its a turbo xs you have to adjust it with the washers it came with. im using four in my rfl atm.

turbo XS Type H-RFL, flutters anytime the boost is under 8psi..

check all your lines. make sure the TB line is still connected to everything. make sure the blow off valve connection is secure. also, make sure your vac lines are big enough. that can make a big difference. they need to be small enought to fit snug on the top of the blow off but big enough to flow through. if all that is fine, then lose some washers one at a time until it works. i only have 2 at 20psi and it works fine. you're positive you have a block off plate on the turbo? cause it kinda sounds like the stock blow off is still connected....

You need to take the pink line off the car and run a vac line from the throttle body spacer to the blow off valve. With the pink line hooked to it the factory solenoid has control over the valve which you dont want.

I have a BoP on, and have that fucker silicon glued sealed shut and screwed it. Pink line might be the flutter, would that also lead to a small boost leak? also i haven't checked the washers yet..I'm running stock boost so about 10-12 psi.

I had to use 4 washers as well, just play around with it untill you get no leaks or flutters

please just post pictures. that would solve all of the issues.

wowwowweewhoa · 11-10-2009, 02:42 PM

pics or ban!

Ok, not trying to hijack the thread, but my RFL just started fluttering TODAY. I have 4 washers. It only flutters under 5psi or so, any higher than that and I still get a perfect sound. Could I be hearing compressor surge?
