How To Get TURBO FLUTTER for CHEAP! | WRX/STI BOV/BPV Blockoff Plate Install
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июл 2024
- IMPORTANT NOTE: Made a mistake when installing the gasket. The gasket should go between the blanking plate and intercooler, otherwise you may have some boost leaks from air seeping through.
DISCLAIMER: This is NOT RECOMMENDED if your turbo has a lot of mileage on it or is very old. Although I have seen it done on some super high mileage turbos (100,000km), the life span of the turbo will be much shorter and damage will likely occur.
Hey guys, so I recently decided to make my WRX STi have some turbo flutter for cheap instead of that HKS blowoff sound that I don't really like that much. As shown in the video, all you need to do is to make a blockoff plate for the BOV/BPV and you will get some really nice flutter. There will be a lot more videos of this car coming soon so subscribe to keep up to date with that.

Brah you put the gasket in the wrong place its meant to seal your intercooler to the plate not the plate to the bov .
yea thats actually true, but I think as long as the plate is smooth enough it'll be just fine, never had any boost leaks despite the gasket being in the wrong place
It's right
@@christophermoodley2083 nah it's not lol, but if it works it works
Yh I noticed too, came to comments section lol
you need to seal both sides as the bov side still has vacuum source.
hey man
do you know if it makes any difference if i just block off the top of my open bov instead of using a blanket?
like on my bov i can remove the whistling trumpet and screw in a cap but then some air could also go back through the vacuum line instead of the air filter or do i see that wrong?
Lovely exhaust sound
thank you! here's a full exhaust clip video:

Fantastic Video 👏
He's forgetting to mention that a blockoff plate can severely damage a turbo and possibly engine. With the plate the excess air has no place to go so it bounces between the turbo and the plate possibly destroying your turbo. Professional rally teams use blockoff plates however they rebuild/replace the turbo after every race.
Ikr!
they rebuild the turbo because of the extreme temperatures it runs at due to the anti-lag system
The excess air goes out the intake of the turbo, it's not going to damage the throttle plate unless you are running 60+ psi, even then people are still running none and never having issues.
@@JCMediaYT Yes and due to the general extreme use including the blockoff plate.
@@gabrielbargeron9749 nope, it's the extreme temperatures that literally make the turbo and housing glow red hot
Watching your oil pressure drop like that is nerfwrecking😂
hahah don't worry, it has a warning buzzer if it goes too low 😂
What the fuck does nerf wrecking mean
@@04Ash he probably means nerve wracking
@@JCMediaYT yes, im from the netherlands so my english is not the best
Focus ST's so the same thing, oil pump is chaib driven off the crank, so lower the rpm, the lower the pressure, and if a wrx is anything similar, my st idles around 750rpm, and the oil pressure is really low, but get into boost and stomp on it, it hits 70psi real fast lol.
Yo I’ve been reading your comments, do you think it would be safe on a Volvo xc70 with 150,000 miles, they are bullet proof but also, I’m converting it into a v70R because they have basically the same engine, from my understanding the turbo is healthy, it must have been replaced at one point as well
Where can I find one of those gauge pods at, I’ve been looking around for one similar and cannot find one.
honestly i'm not exactly sure, it came with the car when i got it used. From the looks of it, it could be a custom pod since there's no branding and is a bit rough.
What's the material used and the cutter? How thick was the sheet metal? Also I'm trying to get a whistle as well do you know how I can achieve that?
the material was steel and a waterjet (because i just happened to have access to someone with the resources) but, using sheet aluminium and a pair of metal cutters should work just fine as long as there is a smooth mating surface between the BOV and intercooler (a gasket could help a lot).
Sound like it's sneezing! But it's cool.
I like it.
i know right
boleh merosakkan turbo jangka masa yang singkat. boost hilang..hanya for fun dengan bunyi flutter
The gasket should be on the inter cooler side …… since you are deleting the Bov other wise your blanking plate will be loosing boost pressure
yeah I've seen a few comments stating that, I pinned one of them. you are definitely correct but somehow the blanking plate had a good enough seal that swapping the gaskets had no effect :p a silly mistake on my end nevertheless
Hi i seen your video i have a 02 bugeye wrx basically stock, i would like to do this to it couple of questions...
1. Is there any engine warning light or anything gonna pop up?
2. Would you recomened it on a my car that has 164,000 miles.
Personally I didn't get any warning lights so you should be fine there. However, since your car is older and has that many miles on it I wouldn't recommend doing it unless you are planning on changing your turbo. Although doing this for fun should be fine as long as you don't have it permanently installed /going into boost often
Let me know if you need any help
I had a question, I have a 2020 wrx and I don't really see where to install the part.
the 2020 wrx has a different engine, it doesn't have an EJ engine
hello, i just wanna ask where did you get your hks blow off and the adaptor in jakarta?
when i got the car, it already came with the hks and adapter, maybe you can have a shop custom make a mount. try going to KSnusa motorsport in jakarta
@@JCMediaYT okay thank uu ill check it out
So does this work on a Greddy rs Type blow off and is on my intercooler pipe and not the intercooler as you’re was? Also is this ruining anything
yup, the same method should work as long as you trace the block off plate correctly. there's been arguments that say that running no bov damages the turbo in the long run but there are also cars from the factory that never ran blow off valves like the celica.
@@JCMediaYT I was wondering the same thing. Without the BOV it'll create compressor surge because there's no way to regulate the pressure. Older cars had very low boost levels and they were able to get away with no BOV. It'll reduce the life of the turbo and probably more necessary on turbo vehicles these days. Especially when you start increasing power over stock.
Do you have an intake? Cost I tried this doesn’t on my 2015.
yup, i have a K&n cold air intake
I just bought my first Subaru. It’s a 2000 forester JDM EJ205 real low miles and never been abused not even repainted. I can also do this with risking any damage? (I do not plan on building engine or adding boost). I just would like to finally hear my own engine flutter since I have never owned a turbo vehicle. Thanks for a reply from anyone.
considering the age, I would probably not keep it on there for a long time but maybe for a few days/weeks just to find out what it sounds like with the flutter. The age and mileage def affect it but it will hurt the turbo in the long run, especially at high boost
Thanks. I will leave it as is. It’s 140,000 km on the odometer.
@@JCMediaYT what about a brand new one
@@austinoquinn6461 well naturally since it's brand new, it'll be in much better condition with less wear and tear so go for it!
What happens to stop the excess boost from returning into your turbo and causing compressor surge, lowering its lifespan?
Sounds cool as hell but it's not good for em lol.
I'd probably do it anyways too, but others may not be up for replacing a turbo earlier than expected especially when pushing boost above stock
not true
Really?
for me, it does not work.. i have a turbo smart blow off and when i block it just like you do in your video it just stops making any sound at all just like if a had no turbo?
which turbosmart blow off do you have?
@@JCMediaYT TURBOSMART | Dual Port - Subaru STI
I’m planning on getting a 06 wrx soon, will this work and if so is it bad for the engine?
yes it will most likely work but considering the age and mileage, it might not be very good on your turbo. if you have to budget i would say you should go for an adjustable bov/bpv instead
@@JCMediaYT ok yeah that’s what I was thinking thank you
@@gabeclark3684 yup no problem! enjoy and have fun with your wrx man :)
@@JCMediaYT awesome thanks man
Is the block off plate safe for the car?
well there are many arguments on this whether its safe or not but personally I feel like it's safe as long as you're not running insane boost levels and a really old turbo. So far I'm running 21psi and it's holding up just fine but your mileage may vary.
Healthy looking oil pressures there. What kinda of cleatances / pump you running?
as for the pump, it's still fully stock. I'm not exactly sure about the clearances since it was built 2 owners before me and they don't have any info about it.
@@JCMediaYT ah i guess you wouldnt know if it was a 10,11 or 12mm pump then either. Sounds good tho im sure it's fun
@@junkyarddog5264 ah I believe it's a 10mm, not an 12mm because if im not wrong that's on JDM models(?)
Hey so would this work on a bpv (2020 veloster n)
i'm not too sure on how it is done on a veloster N but I recommend you try find some videos of other people doing it since I've never tried it on one.
The Velo N has so much damn turbo flutter with nothing needed but an intake or high flow filter
@@geraldgoodiii6993 ok but u can’t hear it with the exhaust and hood down
In the beginning of the video your car had a stsssst sound why and how do you get that sound?
just watch the video...
@@JCMediaYT good idea lol ty
What’s the point of putting the BOV back on if you’re going to run it like this?
vacuum lines in the bov
A mi me pasó pasó contrario me gusta más el sonido de hks ; yo la bloquee y no me gustó nada
I did this on my 2016 sti but still no flutter. Help or advice anyone ?
try make sure there are no leaks around the block off plate and if you disconnected any vacuum lines
Same happened to me, did you fix??
No leaks n disconnected vac lines. Still no flutter. Hmmmm...
@@kedaiekonomi4499 I got told last night our turbos (vf48) are not meant to flutter so don’t try it, not sure if it was a fact but the guy seemed to know a lot and I do remember having the same issue when I used a block off plate, I couldn’t hear anything so freaked out and took the plate off. Then set it to 50/50 so I get the flutter on half spools and “pshh” sound at full throttle. (TurboSmart Adjustable BOV) (2015 STi Premium)
So whats the theory for putting block off plate??
it's to get the turbo flutter sound that people really like, i think it also helps a bit with turbo lag when shifting
So do you need a actual turbo for it to work
Yes.
obviously
Ok
yes, but there is a speaker that u put in the engine bay, it will flutter or you can make it sound like a supercar
@@granmuda those usually sound nothing like a turbo/turbo flutter
What exhaust you running?
I'm running Tomei unequal length headers, catless downpipe, a custom 3" midpipe and resonator, and out through 2 Ironcrafts Dual Out mufflers
How long have you been running this way?
as of now, around 4 months
@@JCMediaYT how’s it holding up
@@yodag2859 perfectly fine so far, put around 2000km with plenty of 1.5 bar pulls hahah
Would this work on a 2019 WRX STI?
it should technically work, yes
Did it work?
Does this cause the turbo to run less boost since the blocking plate is there?
nope
wait so you’re just blocking off your bov meaning that instead of me buying a bov and during that... i can already do that and all i need is a block off plate
yes correct, you can do this with the stock BPV. For me, the car already came with the BOV.
@@JCMediaYT ahh, I was gonna say wtf lol.
@@Nbomber yeahh lmao
Can still work with stock turbo and no tune WRX?
Also will this cause any short/longer term damage to the car?
Yes it will 100% kill your turbo, search compressor surge.
Compressor surge and turbo flutter are two different things. Compressor surge is flutter when on the throttle, turbo flutter is when you let off.
@@JCMediaYTwrong open throttle compression surge is bad but closed throttle surge doesn’t hurt u had the right idea tho
hi, is this mod works on an a-line wrx sti?
yup it should work on the a-line, just remove the stock bypass valve and follow the same steps. It should work just the same
@@JCMediaYT aight cheers man
@@imreallytiredthisdaysucks8880 ye no problem, lmk if you need any help with that
@@JCMediaYT i just tried it, it seems its not as loud as yours, is that normal?
I'm assuming you're using the stock air filter and piping? If you are then yeah that's normal, mine already has an AEM cold air intake and it's also running higher than stock boost.
Wish this would work on newer ones
I did this in my 2020 sti, no luck. What gives?
try check if there are any leaks or any loose vacuum lines, are you using a stock intake by any chance?
Tak kiro wong luar mas .. Ternyata wong sby :)
iya mas, dri Surabaya wkwk
Is there any bad things this can cause
Will reduce the turbo life is not meant to work without Bov, yeah sounds cool but is causing turbo surge.
This is not turbo surge. That is a very different thing.
You can just block the vacuum line way faster lol
Yess its true my brother..simple way😂😂😂
Hey bro i got a automatic sti will that work ？:(((
yup, works on auto and manual
@@JCMediaYT is it actually bad for the engine?
@@kairuihuang3227 some people say it damages the turbo but many people also say it's perfectly fine, especially for more modern turbos

im use Super SQV IV its it same?
@@Boynora74973 yup, it's the same
but sound its definitely deference
How many of you guys had problems after doing this?
Is this bad for the turbo?
not necessarily but is usually worse for older turbos
Reading the comments I'm surprised no one has chimed in with the whole "Broski youz g0nna make da turb0 spin backwardzzZz" garbage lol. Granted I only skimmed the first handful of comments but in the year 2021, you'd be surprised how many people still believe it. Or that flutter is inherently bad for a turbo. It's not something you want to hear while ON boost, on-throttle. Generally if that's the case, you've got an issue though you can sort of force it to happen in a variety of ways. But if it's off-throttle comp surge, that's totally different. Basic physics also tells us that the shaft of a turbo, which is spinning at tens of thousands of rpm, can't just instantaneously stop rotating and start to spin backwards. It's stalling the air around the compressor wheel, due to pressure increase, and it's merely slowing the shaft down(not spinning it backwards) and that's where you get the tell-tale flutter from.
lol i know right, just the typical internet keyboard warriors with little to none experience/knowledge
Will it cause any premature wear at all or is it 100% safe to do this even at any mileage the car has and no matter the age of the turbo?
@@kyleboston5014 not safe, these subaru turbos are journal bearing turbos designed to run how it runs from factory, fluttering is caused from the air trying to fight the blades motion since the block off plate , the boost has nowhere to go in the system but back at the turbo. This will cause your turbo to fail much quicker. I did this for like 5mins before I blew my td04
Sometime people refer to it travelling backwards to explain the motion the air is going back towards the turbo but you’re right the blades are spinning hella fast in one direction and so there’s no way for it to spin backwards , it’s just trying force the air towards the turbo and that’s the result of the flutter. This does cause excessive wear on the bearings causing it to fail
If you guy can please chime in on my video with the hks to help explain more to the idiots who are commenting wrongful information on my video, please thanks
Note: it was already at 285,000km so it’s had mileage on it, so it might’ve been already on its way out. Therefore people can and do run like this for a long period of time but it does make the lifetime shorter which is what everyone does not want. Not worth making extra noises to make the turbo fail quicker unless you’re already planning on turbo swapping
Is this bad for the car?
There's a lot of debate on this, some say yes and some say no. Your results and mine will be different too
depends on the exact turbo and the amount of boost you're running. definitely don't do it with older ceramic turbos if you aren't planning on replacing it
Most of these Subaru journal bearing turbos aren’t designed for this so yes it’s bad for the turbo and can hurt your motor too
Does that not just cause turbo stalling
nope, not at the boost pressure I'm running. Even at higher boost levels it won't cause "stalling" but just a slight decrease in the turbo's speed.
@@JCMediaYT So what kind of boost numbers are you running?
@@cameronbell8791 low boost at 0.5bar, mid at 1.1 and high at 1.3 bar. stock vf48 turbo doesn't create effective boost past 23ish psi
Hi bro, do you need to retune the car after installation?
nope, you shouldn't need a tune after the install
this is technically bad for your turbo, instead of your blow off valve letting out the extra air pressure (boost), it’s being forced back through your turbo
yup that is correct
Very minimal tho if u got a quality turbo. I got eBay turbos so I’m keeping a bov 😞 no flutter for me
Mannnnn!!???

@@Frank_336 oh hell yea that's cool man! what else has been done to it?

I hope ppl with stock turbos don’t try thjs shit
U know what more cheap..just remove your vaccum hose that goes to the bov..and it will be as same as u did now..
with the current setup i had, it would cause a boost leak for the controller

This is not safe for the turbo, the boosted air pressure would be going back to the turbo. You can damage the turbine wheel like this
Please explain how it will damage the wheel.. 🤦♂️
@@jerrodl9819 take a compressor hose and put it in you mouth, then open the valve fast. If you survive you can go around tell people its safe to bypass the BOV, if you die, STFU!!
@@jerrodl9819 it's a fact, not worth debating it.
@@EnvyTheRealest Never had an issue in 10+ years of not running a valve, if it did any damage it wouldn't be so common, your analogy with putting a compressor hose in your mouth doesn't make sense, turbos are literally designed to deal with it so the pressure goes pass the compressor wheel and out the intake.
This has nothing to do with the turbine wheel.
Bro what’s the point of even putting the bov back on if you’re basically deleting it with this horrible mod? You know this is not good at all right?
I thought he was going to make the BOV imitate the turbo surge. Actually the real turbo surge damage the turbo. Smh🤦🏻
1. this is not turbo surge. turbo surge is when your turbo flutters on throttle and IS harmful to the turbo.
2. turbo flutter like this won't necessarily damage the turbo. I'm running a stock sti turbo with no bov for 10k at 1.4 bar just fine.
3. it is not possible to make a BOV "imitate" turbo flutter because a BOV vents the air out which prevents flutter.
smh 🤦
Why did you bother keeping the bov?
Edit: DO NOT ever try this, compressor surge is not good for the turbo.
so that I could reuse the same bolts, i'd have to get shorter bolts to fit it on without the bov. also this is not compressor surge. that is when the turbo is fluttering on throttle, which WILL kill your turbo.
@@JCMediaYT so what do you do when you lift off a heavy loaded throttle. Bypass valves exist on every turbo application for a reason. This is idiotic.
@@justinf7674 you sure all turbocharged cars from the factory have BOV/BPVs? Tell that to AMG engineers who didn't put one on the A45/CLA45 🤷🏻♂️
@@JCMediaYT yours did. Google the cla45 issue. Turbos were prone to failure and there's a major trend of people adding recirc valves to them. Plus is believed they designed in another limited method of releasing boost. Crank the boost on your set up, do a full throttle 4th gear pass and drop the throttle quick at the top the revs. Report back on what happens.
@@justinf7674 I've literally been dailying this car @1.5 bar for about 10k kms, not a single issue. are those CLA45 failures due to the bov? or is that just a coincidence it didn't have a BOV, is there proof of BOVs helping with the turbo's life? celica gt4s, Ford 2.3 turbos, Buicks and a bunch more cars didn't come with a bpv/bov from the factory. besides I've left a disclaimer to begin with sooo, if you think it's dumb just don't do it, I'll sit here and enjoy my turbo flutter :)
You know you could have just left the BOV off and bolted up the plate
you have to keep the vacuum line sealed so its easier to leave the bov on with the vacuum line on
Me being a son of a rich rich dad and just taking my car to the autoshop to just let them do it: my goals are beyond ur understandings
I doubt a shop would do it for you, it’s not good for your turbo
That's not good for your Turbo, mate..
it's actually fine, it might slightly shorten the lifespan, but as long as it's not using a shitty sleeve/ceramic bearing it'll be totally fine. (more or less) I've got a stagea, rb25det, stock ceramic turbo, have basically the same thing and I've been running it for over a year on 10psi. I planned on replacing it within 6 months but since it hasn't died yet I got to order some body kit stuff for it with my turbo budget.
basically if you don't thrash it you're good
You clearly bought that plate, that's not home made.
No, it wasn't a premade plate. I gave the template to a machine shop. As far as I know, people do not sell pre-made BPV block off plates for the EJ. It can easily be done at home if you have sheet metal and the right tools to cut it, which I did not.
BOV’s.. AKA Wanker Valves lol
It will broke the turbo..
not as badly as compressor surge though. turbos will break eventually anyways so might aswell have some fun with it
What are you talking about? This is compressor surge....
@@heatheroo430 nope, compressor surge happens when you're on throttle.
@@JCMediaYT correct, same thing if you rid the bov or bpv. The compressor surges because there is no where for the air to go. Hence the sound you are aiming to get...
It's not going to break anything.
nice try, but RIP your turbo SOON hhaahahhaa. now its better prepare to find turbo replacement after 8 month i think :D

your turbo life will be shorten,turbo blade will damage,like rat bite your turbo blade..trust me😄
shorten but it doesn't cause damage to the blades, it puts stress on the bearings

Excellent way to destroy your turbo. Thanks
Funny after 10+ years of doing it I'm yet to destroy a turbo.
@@DriftNick nice, probably not making enough boost to blow it and probably have a stock ball bearing turbo that can handle it, unlike Subaru turbos that are journal bearing turbos. Also old Nissans technology and tuning isn’t as complex as newer Subaru are. Literally people; even myself have stalled from changing the airflow of the bypass/blowoff valve charge. People on SUBARUS stall out from running 50/50 hybrids even.
@@DriftNick I suggest you go do some more research about block off plates and compressor surge and also really want you to understand the difference between ball bearing and journal bearing turbos. The more you stay educated the more you can correct people instead of thinking just because your Nissan turbo can do it, all other turbos can handle it.
been running it for 2 years at 1.5 bar, still holding strong 🤷
😂😂😂😂😂😂
If youre a new owner of sti/wrx please do not do this ☹️ or else youll fuckup your turbo. You gotta tune everything you do with this car .
yes it does hurt the turbo in the long run but nope, did not need a retune
Yep a new STI you got a tune for everything you do. You can't do anything to it without tuning.
how to destroy your turbo pt 1
My turbo must have died ages ago and somehow I didn't notice.
Poor car.
This is why "subarus are unreliable" 🤦♂️
lol, and do you have or have owned one in the past?
For the love of god ( DONT DO THIS ) it will destroy the turbo. As for the guy in the video. Keep it. You deserve what happens. It sounds cool but will ruin your turbo. Don’t give bad advice.
cars like the celica came from the factory with no BOV and you can find just as many if not more posts about how people have been running with no BOV/BPV with no issues as posts about how it ruins the turbo. Besides, I was never giving advice, just giving a tutorial so you do you my guy.
Meanwhile in reality people running no blow off valves for many years with no damage.
Surge while in boost, AKA pushing throttle is the issue.... while the turbo may not like off throttling surge.... it'll be fine for most part. It's the on boost surge that is typically a problem.
turbo flutter is a bad thing and no one wants it lol
