Turbo Whine & Flutter (added Video)

[Scrotus]

Long story short I have had several small leaks the last week, one was where the throttle body and piping wasnt sealed properly and the other was the crossover pipe not done tight enough.

I fixed these problems but now Im getting a loud whine from the turbo and a Flutter - which I cant remember having either before.

Is this normal?

I checked the turbo manifold bolts about 3 weeks ago, and all where tight,

Sounds perfectly normal to me.

Bad idea trying to video tape and drive though.

[Scrotus]

Yeah I dont endorse video + driving

hrm guess it is all normal then - though I dont get why it has a flutter now def cant remember hearing that. I heard that it can be bad for the turbo.

You haven't stated if your car is tuned or not, if the BOV is standard or not.

Either way, if you have had boost leaks and now you don't, your car will be making some noises that you probably couldn't hear due to the boost leaks.

that whine doesn't sound normal to me. do you have a process west stage 2 cooler?

that whine doesn't sound normal to me.

The car just has 10psi tune, 60lb injectors, k/n panel filter, 2nd cai. It was dyno to chk fuel raitio which was 10.5. BOV standard, but vents to atmosphere.

To me the turbo sounds more high pitched.

could be the auto whinging, not the turbo

had a another look today, found a 2mm crack in one of the rubber joiners on the cross over.

ok that's not the problem still whines, Is there a procedure to adjust BOV, is there a adjustment screw or something on it? Mite play with that see if it fixes flutter at least.
