Turbo flutter or surge
Turbo flutter or surge
I have a cobalt lnf full bolts on with k04r hpt tune 25psi.... and i have a flutter sound in aceleration on low rpm... i have the stock bvp.... what you think the problem is ?
Yes i know.... but mine does this song a full trottle but low rpm... i sont know if its because i have too flow for the engine at low rpm or i have a problem with my bvp... but that song dosent affect the power of the car
What gear are you going full throttle at low rpm?
Third gear if you do a pull at 2500rpm it will do a strange noise similar to surge but it dosent affect the performance of the car. Im tuned at 26psi... i dont know if i have to buy a forge bvp and put the harder spring too... it is possible that the stock bvp leak at 26psi on k04r ?
Sure... i just want to know if i can resolve this problem... because its very easy to do some extra damage for my new turbo .... just to put the gaz pedal to 50% in thirs at low rpm and the tuebo do the same thing
Adjust the tune, thats how you resolve the problem likely. It's hard to say from a keyboard no where near the car or a log of the car running. If the sound happens when you give it 50% thottle at 2500rpm it's likely because the tune is calling for all the torque at part pedal to make it feel faster. I'm also assuming that at half throttle you can't keep it below 20psi and the throttle feels like an on off switch.
Yeah that's not quite normal. It sounds like you aren't opening the bpv valve well. Are you sure you map sensors are ok, no leaks in the system, and does it open ok at wot? Flutter is ok, but that's a little much for no bigger than a r is.

Definitely surging, "Safe" flutter should only happen when letting off the throttle, not getting into it. I would validate the tune isn't causing problems and a boost leak test wouldn't hurt!
