Turbo whooshing

slee22 · #1 (**permalink**) 05-21-2009, 07:19 AM

Whenever I'm passing someone (I've only noticed it at about 40mph) I get a loud nasty sounding whoosh from the turbo. Haven't noticed the boost gauge act different or any loss of power. Not sure what turbo flutter feels like, but it just started happening about a week ago and has only done it a couple of times. Any ideas?
Thanks

You just put an air filter on didn't you? If so it's turbo surge and it's normal. You can get a whicked wheel to fix the majority if not all of it.

I did the DIY TYMAR about 7 months ago, but it just started this noise.

Hmmm, well you should have noticed it immediately. Did you just put a chip in or something?

I've had the SCT since Christmas...it might be surge. I tried to get it to do it this morning and it seems to happen when I get on it and let off the go-pedal abruptly.
