The problem is this thing has nothing to do with the waste gate. Waste gate is on the hot side (turbine side) of the turbo and is used to regulate boost pressure. Turbo bypass valve - also known as blowoff valve and dump valve - is on the cold side (compressor side) and is used to counter pressure surge on the compressor when throttle plate is closed. They are completely different things, and only the cold side valve has this characteristic sound. Wastegates only whistle like a kettle.

@Flies2FLL 9 ай бұрын

The point of a blow off valve is to keep the turbo spooled during shifts. When the throttle is closed, the boost air has nowhere to go, so it backs up against the throttle plate and the lack of forward movement causes the compressor wheel to stall, or churn air instead of move it. This slows the turbo very quickly. With a blow off valve, the boost air is simply vented to the atmosphere, so it continues to move and the turbo stays at high RPM, improving response after the shift. The device installed on this car simply makes the venting audible, since the automaker designed the blow valve to be silent. These actually work on non-turbo cars as well, but all they do is make a little noise. Great video!

Hi, @ 8:07 Daniel son stated that the car has been tuned. Which most likely means air to fuel ratio has been increased as well as boost. The extra boost might need to be evacuated more so you do not have compression surge in the turbo. Removing the blow off valve part is possibly causing turbo damage due to compression surge. Not only do you have to remove that blow off valve part. But the customer might have to put the vehicle back to factory specs. Also adding a higher flow air filter on turbo vehicles will also most likely make that compression sound to some degree. Thank you for the hard work that goes into recording these videos and the content that you provide to the KZfaq community.

@Wpjgdmtu 9 ай бұрын

Recirc valve's job is to recirculate air so that the compressor doesn't surge. All the spacer does is make noise. Both with and without the spacer, the pressure is still diverted away from the compressor. So no this also would not affect the tune. When the valve is closed and you're under boost, the system works exactly the same.

It was carbureted and the charcoal canister was mounted to the inside of the air cleaner lid and a rubber hose was attached to it through the top of the air cleaner. That hose was kinked. This caused a sound just like a rubber chicken being squeezed. It was super random and very hard to duplicate. Took some time to find it.

My first thought on hearing the noise was "diverter valve has been replaced with a blow off valve going to atmosphere" Kind of right.
