But isn't compressor surge and the stu tu tu tu sound bad for the turbo?
@roninlaw9824 Жыл бұрын
Yeah to an extent it is bad, that's why you run a bov or recirculating valve on turbo cars, it manages compressor surge. A properly setup external waste gate sounds like this too, even with a bov. You'll hear stu tu tu first from the waste gate followed by a whoosh from the bov. Long story short compressor surge to an extent is natural for any turbo, but to extreme is very bad and will damage the turbo. The Turbo smart video on compressor surge helped me understand.

@@roninlaw9824 Thanks for the heads up, that's interesting... my S3 was fitted with a Forge Recirculating valve before i bought the car a few weeks ago, i was worried about the stu tu tu sound, but you reckon that is normal... so maybe the sound is from the wastegate? plenty of power and goes like a rocket.. i'll check out the Turbosmart video... thankyou
@strider511911 ай бұрын
No it isn't bad. There's a myth that's been argued for like 30 years about turbo bearings wearing faster, but it's never been proven to be a real thing. Compressor surge when you lift your foot is fine. If you get compressor surge while on throttle, THAT is bad, because it means your car isn't making use of all the boost. Either a mismatched turbo, or too much boost. Which can definitely damage your engine, and possibly turbo, as its still being spooled up while not having anywhere to send the air. but thats an entirely separate issue and has nothing to do with a bov. I assume that people hear about the second one and apply the same logic to the first. "I've heard compressor surge is bad for the turbo" Open throttle surge, yes. Closed throttle, no. Unless your turbo is made of glass or coke cans, it'll be fine.

Airbox is fine, you just need metal intake and charge pipes. And a bit more of straight length directly in front of the compressor. No sharp bends or sudden cutoffs or change of direction (back-to-back bends) either. Also, if you have an anti-surge housing, get a straight housing, instead, or block off the anti-surge somehow. You could just use an undersized pipe to bypass the anti-surge if you don't wanna mod or buy another housing. The absolute best dose will come from a non-anti-surge housing with a correctly sized diameter metal intake pipe that's straight and at least 3x as long as the diameter, with all metal charge piping. Anecdotally, different compressor wheel designs might also dose differently. If it's in the budget , try a 9-blade wheel, 5+5 blade wheel, and a 7+7, depending on what you already have and what's available for your turbo. Hell, a nice billet compressor wheel will be a solid upgrade in general, anyway.

Hey Zac, looking at gt86 turbo kits and whats the main contributor to the flutter sound. Many of them dont run BoVs but sound very different. the HKS one sounds epic, do you think thats due to the turbo housing (would you know if most modern turbos from garret and precission have anti-surge to prevent them sounding like 90s JDM cars?), intercooler pipe routing lenght? (many kits go around the bumper;long route vs some going through the crash bar; short route), or having a slight dose pipe? (some having filter connecting to turbo vs some having a 2-3" dose pipe for Map sensor).
@hunterlowe2470 Жыл бұрын
Just a little help the biggest contributors would be the amount of boost your running as well as the length of the piping between the turbo and throttle body as far as the anti surging tech I would do research on those turbo kits I would say most modern ones tho would have anti surging hope this helps
