Some companies for turbo cars make multi piston designs to help mitigate this. I ran a tial single piston on my 700whp sti. It held boost but would get light surge, it does shorten the life of the turbo a bit, but not enough to where I would care since at that power level, things break a lot anyways on a 4 cylinder. In the grand scheme, GFB isn’t a super high end bpv, so I wouldn’t expect a lot out of it. People don’t use those at high power levels.
You're misunderstanding this. At low RPM, the flutter is a result of the operation of the spring. If you don't press the pedal, all of the boost then exits. If you press the pedal, the valve continues and operation continues. This isn't surge and has no effect on your turbo or its life.

You’re saying that the fluttering air noise you hear, is coming from the spring? Don’t know about that.

I provided a nice long explanation a page back that explained this. Yes, the fluttering noise is associated with how the DV+ operates, which correlates to the spring. It's a fact, not an opinion. As you let off at low RPM, the low amount of boost escapes (Yes, all of it unless you cut it off with acceleration) but due to a stiffer spring, it bounces and causes the fluttering effect. It does not send boost back into the turbo at any rate.

That’s a little too much noise from a piston bouncing up and down.

Do you know how, a blow valve operates? The piston is actuated off vacuum and positive pressure from a vac line off the intake manifold.

You are welcome to live in denial and be arrogant. I understand how it works. If you want to argue with the engineers at GFB and other companies, be my guest. Otherwise, this is going nowhere. I presented you with the facts. You can take them or leave it.

Yeah.... our DV is operated electrically not by vacuum tho, like a traditional bov. I don't want argue with anyone but I'm with BunkerJ on this.

Spring and solenoid! It's fine. We can all bicker all we want. Knowledge was shared and hopefully, things have been learned.

Bro your completely misinformed turbo flutter and compressor surge are two totally different things that are slightly similar which I get why your confused but honestly Gtfo with your arrogance and if someone corrects you on your shit take it like a man and learn from others rather than think your way is always correct. It's turbo flutter, this is NOT compressor surge,

Lmao. 😂😂😂😂 have fun with your 300whp club. Gtfoh with that. Calling my car slow. Haha you’re probably making 1/4 of the power mine is. Have fun racing accords, while I’m racing liter bikes. 😂😂


Anyways, I was done arguing, and for some reason you have to instigate some more. Relax.

That's what the forums are about. We all bring different pieces of the puzzle to form the picture. At the end, it's about being humble and taking responsibility. No hard feelings, I hope.

EDIT: But let's stop the flaming. Thread is about the DV, not speed or shit talking.

Honestly, man. I’m not trying to be hostile. I do disagree and that’s fine. We don’t have to agree. I’ve been doing the car thing for a long time and it happens on car forums all the time.

I just bought this f32 as my daily a few weeks ago, but I have supercharged/cam/meth c7 corvette as my “fast car” and before that I had a built motor sti with precision 6265 turbo which was self tuned and built. I’m not new to the game, just new to this car.

I love being the voice of reason in these disputes . both sides have presented their opinions and people deciding on whether or not they want to do a DV can decide for themselves at this point. the info is in this thread. no need for shit talking on this thread at least, stay on topic. I'm all for shit talking, but only on threads where it's invited/relevant
