How much fluttering noise is normal vortech
Since I've been driving the car more I'm questioning the loud fluttering that happens a lot while cruising. From searching this seems to be compressor surge and possibly the bpv not set correctly? It happens under light acceleration and sometimes in-between upshifts. These aren't the best videos to hear it but it's all I have for now.
Vortech V3 and Tial QRJ not recirculated btw. Best video so far https://youtu.be/si2lSrrxCIk https://youtu.be/meGqayxjm0M https://youtu.be/HjTmSG0Nmm0 It sounds very similar to this but only while driving at low rpms like 2200 cruising, more of a whistle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtReC1-rZtA Last edited by ZStalker505; 05-12-2023 at 09:56 PM. |

So I bought a 370z with a stage 1 GTM kit and Tial QRJ bypass valve. The fluttering drove me nuts at the start. I contacted Tial and we took a vacuum reading. The spring I had seemed like the correct spec, but they sent me 2 other springs (one stiffer and one looser) to try. Each other spring made it worse. After awhile I found a couple guys that have the same setup and both said it's normal for them.
I don't have any good videos of the fluttering, you can sort of hear it at the start of this video though. It's definitely annoying, but now that I know it's normal it doesn't bother me quite as bad.. wish I could do something to quiet it up, it's already recirculated to the intake https://imgur.com/gallery/YabPywU Sent from my SM-G991W using Tapatalk |

I have a Turbosmart Plumb Back (not sure if 32 or 38mm) routed back to the intake on my GTM Stage 1 kit, and I’ve never noticed any flutter. You can adjust spring preload and see if it helps the flutter.

I’ll measure size when Im home later. Blue arrow shows the vacuum line routed up into the engine bay. Recirculated right into the air filter intake pipe as I’m sure yours is too. Shoot me a message if you want! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
