well ive changed the BOV to a turbosmart type 3.

its working better than the apexi, i actually now get the old psssh sound...haha

however im still getting the flutter in the airbox at low throttle back off...
is there anything i can do apart from going back to a plumb back type BOV.

loosen off the spring on the valve as it is not staying open long enough

It should be fine. It's doing that because the BOV is designed to hold more boost than you're putting into it. If you loosen it off too much it will leak at idle etc and give you the same trouble you had to begin with. You can try adjusting it down to a happy medium, but if it's doing it's thing at high rpm it'll be just fine.

agreed, you'll get some slight "flutter" noise (not the loud "angry pigeon" noise, haha excuse the explainations) even with the stock recirc bov, i always did. just on very low boost levels.

ive noticed that the car isnt stalling anymore and i think ive adjusted it just right.

still get the flutter but at high RPM you get the BOV working like it should... thanks guys..
