Hi guy's ,

Recently , Ive just installed an HKS SSQV on my 94 and im wondering if the sound im having is compressor surge or just flutter? My back screw is almost all close behind the bov. The BOV is vented since im running a GM maf/Maft combo.

Here's a clip (not my car) but my car does the same sound as his car. Also does it if im brake torqueing of the line and let of the gas.

So is it compressor surge?

Here's the video

Other posts on this report that it's just valve flutter, not compressor surge. Don't worry. It's inherent to the pull-type design of the valve. Enjoy your new BOV and plug that "adjustment" screw hole :thumb:

so your are saying that I should get the screw out and just plug it? could I just unscrew it to the point it dosent fall off and let it there. Cuz right now the screw is set all the way closed.
