BOV question
I went from a stock ix that's been crushed to a synaspe bov and let me tell you the difference is very noticeable. The synaspe bov is way better as a dd. Sound is about the same if anything a bit louder but I run 31 psi. If your buying a new stock bov just go straight to the synapse. I'm assuming that the fluttering is because you're not running a dedicated line to the bov. You have it t'd with your boost controller and it is interfering with it, causing the flutter. The stock ix bov will flutter from time to time and on your driving habit.
Fyi my stock bov didn't flutter until I crushed it which was a mistake to do in my opinion. I should of just left it alone. My synaspe flutters from time to time but ii think it's just my driving habit. I tend to drive it on 0-5 lbs and lighty have my foot on the gas so it easy to make it flutter so I can't tell if it's me or the car

because my car is a daily driving my goal is to go between 400 whp to 500 whp but i wanna keep my stock turbo. what i put in my car so far is the exhaust with the pipes, ets intake, ets intercoolers pipes and bigger intercooler, boost control solenoid, and aem gauges( boost, air/fuel ratio, oil) but i have stock bov, fuel pump. I need to get it tune because i put all of that this past 2 weeks.

You need to add it to your lower intercooler pipe. What Im doing is welding a 1/4 piece of metal on the pipe where the factory nipple should be then pipe tapping it for a 1/8 inch nipple. Our you can cut s nipple of from some old parts like an old fpr or throttle body and have some one drill and weld it in your pipe. What happens is the boost controller is a vacuum leak and when it leak air out your bov isn't sealing right and is fluttering due to the inconsistency of pressure moving back and forth.
