Excess boost did pop the rubber chair leg stoppers off the intake manifold but a couple of hose clamps soon fixed that! Once I get my new intake pipes I will be reverting to a good quality aftermarket BOV. I wouldn't be running a stack of boost and no BOV... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertis Member 30 Member For: 15y 3m 9d Posted 07/12/09 03:08 AM Share Posted 07/12/09 03:08 AM are their any special pipes made to help these turbos with the flutter??? I dont hear any flutter yet they should be awesome at it.... maybe more work needs to go into the size and length of the intake piping... my eb turbo has best dose known to man and its mainly because the intake pipe is only 6 inches long.

I guess it woudl slow a manual down a lot but not so much an auto .... gotta build up all the boost again :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
