How would you like me to show u what it sounds like? haha

Its just a flutter, if ur asking me how does it sound meaning do I like it, or not... I do like it, but I like the "whoosh" a lot better.

Hmm, I looked at mine.. and it shows one thread above the nut. Should I leave it, or could it be I need to loosen it until there is 3 threads showing?

k, I made it so 3 of the threads are showing above the nut. Let the car warm up, and drove it around. The bov is noticably "whooshy'er" however, it still flutters a bit when someone is standing outside, and the car is coming towards.

Also, the car seems to drive a TINY bit different, but that could just be my mind...

What should I do?

I did.
Do you know how many threads of the bolt are showing above the nut? If so, how many?

Alright, that did it. Thanks for the pics. I need to adjust it a tad more, and I will be set where ur set.

You have no problems, or anything with it set like that? Everything is all good?

I've had mine since the end of summer, and haven't messed with it because I read to leave it the way it was. But its always fluttered, so I decided to ask about it today on here, and I was told to loosen it. I hear a "whoosh" now, its not loud... but its a "whoosh" instead of a "flutttttteeeerr".
