    In they're yes bad for turbo but in practice it doesn't seem to matter.

    Or you could get the BDE kit

    I found there was barely if any flutter with recircs removed and pipes blocked.

    Can you describe the goose honk sound? Thinking I may have the same issue. Seems to occure at around 1500rpm.

    Its like when you blow across to top of a beer bottle and it makes that sound . Which is actually what happens in the recircs .

    Ah ok, then I don't think that's the noise that I get. Are all of your intake clamps tight?

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't it also reduce performance by reducing turbine momentum........increases spool time when the accelerator is reapplied.

    Block it off and don't worry. Save and get your car tuned.

    My car used to make the vl turbo herpa derpa dose noise if I was light throttle (bov pretty tight). Sounds quite loud.

    As to performance keep it pinned and shift :)
