Default Problem with Vort BOV.. after installing with fmic, not sure i like how it sounds.

After the fmic and BOV, car does not sound nearly as loud at WOT, and all I hear is the constant fluttering sound from the BOV... anyone else have this problem?

first, do you have a blow thru maf since your using a bov?

second, that usually means your BOV is too small for your application. this is why those crap *** 5$ ebay bov's should never be used except by the honda guys. i wanna say thats not even the bov fluttering, its the supercharger because the bov isnt big enuff to let the pressurized air out, so the blower spins backwards.

Well, I do have a blow through Maf, as well as a MAFia. I also am using a Vortech mini race BOV that was 250 bucks, so it better be big enough to handle 11lbs and 420 HP.. Just sounds fluttery to me.
