Aps bov I can "Unloosening the nut and turning the screw to the right will make it recirculate more and vta less" my bov is on my upper ic pipe. I flutter at low mid rpms. Should i turn right to recirculate more or left for vta?

 

flutter means...too soft...may need to tighten spring

 

so i would need to open this baby up or just turn the adjustment knob at top to the right?

 

HUH? u sure?

 

i dont think aps would send a spring that didnt work or have to take out like the greddy..plus a ****ty spring would cause it to stall or get close

 

That's what I thought too....doesn't it mean that it's too tight?

 

Flutter, at least on my Type-S means that it is too tight.

 

it would make sense that it would need tightened if it flutters because it opens too easily

 

sorry to hijack but I have a question about your aps bov. When it is cold does it make more fluttering noise? Mine does until it warms up. Do you need to lube these bov's?

 

well i just put it in last week..always got a flutter until now..i loosened the top screw which made it loosen the bolt i think..its bolt is about half and inch give or take a few out from the top... so i took it for a test drive and it pushed air great no matter what i did ..WOT ..tapping on gas ..half rpming it....so i guess you want to to recirculate a little more...it did one small flutter out of the 10-12 times i pushed the car and that was a small one from small tap on the gas

 

Just try different things out man... The best way to learn is to get dirty! this is like your 5th thread on the same BOV/issues

 

flutter is when it's too tight or too lose ...flutters both ways

is he recirculating or truely venting to air? i prefer recirculation until more mods are under the belt

 

yeah i fixed my problems..its all good now

 

Yeah? Well I prefer to recirc until I don't have a MAF anymore.

 

mafs suck....but while u have one...try to recirc
