Did this happen to you? Any idea what the issue may be?


Yeah my BOV will flutter when it’s only under a few psi. At like 10psi it’s more of a single loud sound. I don’t believe there’s anything to worry about with it and it’s more attributed to the style of BOV. If it’s staying closed under acceleration and properly releasing when you let off, it’s doing its job. The bad kind of turbo flutter is when your turbo is pumping so much air into the engine that it can’t take it all and then it starts pushing back on the compressor, creating a fluttering sound.
