All I get when I back off is one solid shoosh sound. the turbo spools up nice and loud thanks to the intake, but it will only flutter twice (tsutsu) and then whoosh, I know its coming out of the intake. it is running stock boost, but I my old BA MKII used to flutter with a standard intake...any ideas?forgive me if this is common, but my search skills arent what they used to be hahathanksKarl Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86812-turbo-wont-flutter/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spyathe Donating Members 872 Member For: 11y 8m 14d Gender: Male Posted 18/11/13 01:08 PM Author Share Posted 18/11/13 01:08 PM If cooler pipe had come off it wouldnt boost properly and run like sh*t, but I'll have a good look tomorrow. I did see somewhere that it could just be tired bearings in the turbo :/ Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86812-turbo-wont-flutter/#findComment-1441101 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw its joe here got ya in fb. If your around my area ill have a look at it for u some time.

Vacuum hose isn't leaking? Throttle body not farked? Actuator not opening wastegate? Every clamp is secure and not loose? Just throwin it all out lol Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86812-turbo-wont-flutter/#findComment-1441168 Share on other sites More sharing options...
