cable tie for turbo flutter?

[antonvavtar]

hi guys, i've seen on social media that people are cable tieing the vac line right next to the turbo on the 1.0 ecoboost to get a turbo flutter, i was thinking about doing it, but forcefully spinning the turbo the opposite way surely cannot be healthy for it. what do you guys think? thanks

That's not what to do !!

What you need is to put a lollipop stick in the turbo and it will sound just like a jet engine, just until the turbo explodes 🤣

It does work at the opportunity cost of a severely reduced turbo service life.

Speak no further!! 'Social media' is for posting photos of what you had for breakfast, nothing at all more serious...

What I find funny is that people are doing this modification to the turbo on their cars then get upset when the manufacturer refuses warranty.

What I find funny is that people have an intelligence level that makes them think this is an OK performance modification 🤣
