Fluttering noise

[gaz_marshall]

oh dear  , so there should be no noise when you change gear? how would i go about checking this out?

do you mean something like this?

you will still hear like a faint hissing noise whatever happens, the valve is releasing pressurised air into a part of the system thats not pressurised so will make a little hiss, just not as loud as a valve that lets the pressure straight out into the air. therefore it kind of makes sense why an enclosed DV like the ones we are using are quieter.

ok thanks for the info, much appreciated! if i purchase a forge are they hard to fit (me being a novice when it comes to mechanics).

real easy to fit! should be a fiting guide somewhere id imagine, if its chattering it means air is getting forced back into the blades of the turbo, sounds cool but can kil the turbo!

[gaz_marshall]

thanks, i've ordered the valve so it should be here tomorrow- we'll see if the noise disappears once fitted. does it come with crimps etc or do i have to go purchase them?

Problem solved!

Mechanic mate of mine had fitted my forge split-r the wrong way so I flipped it to right position and get a nice whoosh sound now when I change gear  no more fluttering!!

So in answer to my own question and few others there should be no flutter!!

[gaz_marshall]

Just thought I'd also add, fitted the forge dv on the weekend, no flutter and for some reason fuel consumption has decreased- marvellous!

does any one know the inside diameter of a silicon pipe to fit a dump valve to a 1.8 agu i got a 25mm id pipe but it a bit big is it about 23mm id .cheers.

i have got an induction kit on mine, and i can hear a dump kind of thing when i change gear, im guessing this is wrong then?
