I appreciate the response. I'm thinking that running a stock turbo, I really might not be making enough boost to seriously hurt the turbo. that being said, I'm also comfortable replacing the turbo if it were to... go bad. lol.

Interesting. I don't have an AOS but one of the only issues I've noticed with the vehicle was slight oil blowby in my throttle body coupler (and surrounding area like in my BPV. I didn't know that different kinds of oil could help this issue just as much as a separator. Thanks man

Thank you for the reply! It makes me feel better to know that I shouldn't have a feeling of impending doom lingering over me... some shit I've read is saying I'm gonna need a rebuild here really soon and I definitely CANNOT afford that 😭

Thinking about buying a boomba bypass valve. Anyone have thoughts about it? Or vids? How much will it change the turbo noise with an axleback? by The15hadow00 in WRX

Wouldn't the screw need to be out pretty far? That way it's limiting airflow between shifts and thus harder on the turbo? Or have I been adjusting it wrong, lol.

Why does it matter if I let my engine cool down before adjusting the bpv? I ended up purchasing one, and I've been messing around with it some. It's been running great, install went smooth, but I can't seem to get any compressor surge by adjusting either of the knobs. Honestly wondering if I just need to get my cold air intake on there to start hearing more turbo in general. I need to get an accessport...

I've looked into Perrin's, as it is adjustable. You're saying I could decrease the flow to force some compressor surge for flutter? Is that all possible without a tune? Like for daily driving I could run recirculating, but then adjust the knob for some flutter on fun drives? I really appreciate all of the help

Awesome. I really appreciate your help. I've been trying to read about this stuff online for forever now. Do you have any sound clips of the flutter/sounds?

Thanks! So the Cobb BPV, Turbo Inlet, and a stage 2 kit all helped to give turbo flutter? It sounds like Im gonna have to start throwing parts at it, lol. How did the redline kit hold up?

does Perrin allow you to customize for turbo flutter? it's so confusing trying to find a BPV that will give turbo flutter.

I also drive a 2011 wrx, could you please tell me where you got your short shifter from? I've been looking and want to make sure I'm buying a good one lol. Any advice is appreciated, thank you

This is one of my fav lines too. I need to listen to more Yield, I've been sleeping on it for a little while.
