Just recently installed a greddy type-s and it flutters instead of swooshing.. im confused on this because any dsm I ever heard the type-s on it makes a swooshing noise not a flutter. I wanna make sure I dont have something hooked up wrong.. Also you know how theres 2 tube openings on the BOV itself? picture here from vfaq.. http://herpetology.com/dsm/bov17e.jpg ...

My main question about the bov is.. the vfaq site says..

The smaller nipple on the cast aluminum body of the BOV may be spliced into the turbo outlet pipe or into the line between the turbo and wastgate actuator. Use the T-connector supplied. This connects to pressure even when the other line has vacuum. This will activate the BOV faster by applying pressure under the valve seat

So with that in mind.. Do i just cut a piece of the tube that goes from the wastegate actuator to my manual boost controller and T it off into the smaller nipple on the bov?

Then I have a question about logging if you guys could assist me on some knowledge here. i took a few logging WOT run's and logged everything for about 30minutes but did forget to have the rpm listed but heres the log anyways www.totaleffect.net/car/dsmlog

Thanks in advance

I don't have a greddy so I can't help you there, but the flutter is usually compressor surge,you may already know this. Try to adj the bov.
 
Just now adjusted it .. fluttering went away its relieving good now.. Thanks for that info
