Turbo flutter

[geokots]

turbo flutter help - my 2015 EB is getting turbo flutter. it just started even though i've been running my JLT CAI and tune for a while. all the research i've done on cause and fix suggest a BOV to better release the air pressure.


i know there's not a lot turbo drivers on here but does anyone have any recommendation on manufacturers and what to look for? it looks like a reasonable install but i might look for help with that too.


thanks

Usually a by-pass valve is better on a metered air cars, however I think the current ecoboost engines are speed density. If that is correct you can run either with little issue. I prefer BPV's personally cause I don't like how loud most BOV's are.

It's best to do some research on the ecoboost directed forums. I think turbosmart makes a bov for the ecoboost stangs, i have a turbosmart BPV on my svo based mustang and i love it.

Forge makes some great products. Take a look into that product. Not sure if they make something for the ecoboost but you never know with these Brits. :)

Well what do you know? LMAO! They do have something for ecoboost motors. http://www.forgemotorsport.com/search?q=Ecoboost

Looks like the valve is controlled by the ECU, according to the description.
FWIW, Synapse makes the fastest BOV/BPV. Customer service sucks, but the product is top-notch, the operation is unaffected by pressure and customization (i.e. boost increase) doesn't involve guesswork and spring changes.

Looks like this unit addresses (read "bypasses") the ECU: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDrjhSPGpJ0

So this is where I'm at. I've been messaging with tune+ and Bama/American Muscle and it looks like the fix is a cold side charge pipe with a proper bov.

American Muscle sells this kit that they recommend http://www.americanmuscle.com/cpe-coldside-pipe-black-tial-bov-2015eco.html
quality seems good, TiAL's reputation is solid.

I mentioned it to Tune+ and he said i'll still get compressor surge with that kit and should reach out to MAP http://www.maperformance.com/ and ask them to make me a charge pipe with a Synapse DV on it.

AM - i like the idea of a kit for tested fit, finish with good products cp-e and TiAL.
MAP - my priority is to fix the issue so if MAP is better, i'll go that route. i just don't know why it would be better.
any opinions on this?

AM's kit states "Available With Or Without a Tial Sport Q 8 PSI BOV (Blow Off Valve)".
Check with Synapse and see if they offer a compatible flange to use with AM's Tial flange. If so, combine AM's pipe with a Synapse BOV.
The reason I like Synapse's design is the spring is perpendicular to the valve.
