right so, with his arguement it's because the air isn't being released while off throttle therefore the air is being forced over the blades yes?
1. this is the reason alot of turbo's get damaged, serious design flaw if this was as common as you say/think.
2. therefore a dump valve, releasing the air before the turbo when you come off throttle would solve this so called 'chattering'
3. why then how come on our single tubbie rx7, when we have a dump valve, AND an external wastegate do we get the chatter still?

the chatter you talk about IS the wastegate.

I know the noise you mean...

It's not a whistle like adam was talking about... and its not a VRrrrrrmmm - Tish release in pressure...

It's a 'chatter' noise - if you watched that vid of that supra the other day that did like a 8.5 sec 1/4 mile listen to his car after his burn out as he blips the throttle ...

How does it make this sound?

hehe - I don't know. Though what you copied and pasted seemed about right.

hence why people use dump valves to release the pressure before the turbo, and larger external wastegates to stop overboost, and that is what creats the chatter when coming off boost.

The wastegate is a flap inside the turbo which opens to leak boost out when it reaches a set amount. The wastegate actuator contains a spring and diaphragm that senses the pressure and opens the wastegate

A dump valve (blow off valve outside Europe) is similar in construction to an actuator, in that it contains a spring and diaphragm (or piston). It's job is to open when the inlet manifold is in vacuum - throttle off on a turbo car.

with out a dump valve when the throttle is lifted, boost produced by the turbo that has not yet entered the inlet has nowhere to go. Normally it bounces off the closed throttle plate and back towards the turbo, where it hits the spinning blades and reverberates off them, making the chattering noise. This can cause bearing failure and also in severe cases, the impeller blades to shatter and get sucked into the engine. Not a pretty sight. if u are runin high boost

The wastegate is a flap inside the turbo which opens to leak boost out when it reaches a set amount. The wastegate actuator contains a spring and diaphragm that senses the pressure and opens the wastegate, as standard this happens at ~6psi (manifold pressure).

dependant on turbo configuration, larger aftermarket turbo's do not have internal wastegate's and use an external wastegate which makes the noise.
i don't see the point at all in you posting all the above, it proves nothing towards your point.

Hmm - just a thought but you've got to have somewhere for sound to escape to hear it... So perhaps maybe your both right...

As you lift off the air hits the blades (creates the chatter noise) - and then the waste gate opens to let it out and out comes all the wasted air and the noise...

probably as many as you see car's making the loud chattering noise from just the air travelling back over the blades
all car's will come with a form of dump valve, even if it's a plastic recirc, but it will stop the air traveling back into the turbo and damaging it.

i will say it again

Think about what happens when you lift off:

The turbo isn't being asked to provide boost, so there is no need for the wastegate to open (which it only does when max boost is reached). Therefore it would not be opening and closing.

Even so, the wastegate is a metal flap against the metal casting of the turbo's exhaust housing. If it were to fluctuate, it would not produce the sound we know as chatter, more a metallic clattering sound.

The only sound you'll ever hear from the wastegate is external ones venting to atmosphere

u just don't understand do you.

think of it this way, u own a corsa diesel turbo i presume, you have had to ask this 'stupid question' on a corsasport forum.
i drive, have owned and own many big power jap turbo car's, and don't have the need to ask what makes a chatter.

yes, this is the chatter, it's very rare you'll get a chatter from a stock turbo with internal wastegate, but it does happen. all car's will be provided with some form of dv be it recirc or vent to stop air reaching the turbo. the chatter is not from the turbo's blades

the wastegate opens when you accelerate and will open when you get to a preset amount of boost

when you decelerate then the noise would come from a dumpvale

The wastegate would produce a chattery sound as it would never hit the sides, as soon as it opens the boost drops and it starts to close

my mates FRST chatters n he dose not run anti lag. he also has no dump valve. yes chatter may cause damage if u runin very high boost but at standard RS turbo it wont.
it is not the waste gate that causes the noise.

if you have air trying to pass over the turbo in the wrong direction your turbo isn't going to last long
