Scrotus Member 156 Member For: 16y 1m 8d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 03/03/09 02:40 PM Share Posted 03/03/09 02:40 PM (edited) 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, Edited 04/03/09 02:07 AM by Dagabond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mite play with that see if it fixes flutter at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
