Turbo flutter

[ROCKJEEP]

Have a questions for everyone. When I pull hard and I up to around 36lbs. of boost, when I let off the turbo takes longer than normal to wind down and makes a wo wo wo soud as it slows and the truck pulsates. Only does it with the box turned up. stock turbo, 4" stright pipe, afe and torque tube, ramifer.

When you add fuel, and let off the go-pedal QUICK, it causes "Turbo Bark", not a good habit to get into...



Just learn how to come up off the pedal while under load and it won't do it.

Thank you. Will be lighter on the pedal. I was worried that the turbo was going bad.

Yeah, I had to re-learn how to shift with a turbodiesel and lead-footing. Definitely let off before clutching, or let off slowly if you have an auto.



I don't understand why blow-off valves aren't popular on diesels. All the ricers use 'em, and they sound killer. I'd like to put one on my truck, with a big fat horn on it to amplify the sound
