which will be boosting higher, it will be replacing a Bosch re-circulating unit,
but if I don't like the noise.

can the HKS unit be easily converted to re-circulate?

GTS GAV wrote:Its just a term most use to decribe the noise when you back off the throttle dude, some say turbo flutter, some say waste gate chatter lol
I say compressor surge as in, the compressed air in the intake system is forced out of the intake of the turbo or compressor while it it still tryin to force air in causing a surge past the wheel making the noise i hear![]()

it is like a myth word thats spread on the web for something that its not.
its not wastegate chatter either.wastegate chatter/flutter is something else.
the sound is just the air hitting the blades from the other side..

it is not compressor stall, or surge tho.![]()
(the turbo would never
"stall")
you could call it compressor flutter.![]()

people say it kills turbos, no proof at all.its an utter junk opinion.
from my experience, there is an improvement of spool up between fast shifts as its not dumping huge amounts of air out the system, but retaining some..
.pressurising the system is what gets the car up to full load, blowing off all that pressure is a step back.

ive experiemented with it alot, and im defo keeping it off.
plus sounds badass.
if anyone told you it stalls, then there fools, lol..
