No DV on the P2 hence the turbo stall.

Not sure if it runs ALS.

Nah mate regardless of what Clarkson says it's not 'wastegate chatter' but Comp stall.

It's a funny sound if you've never heard it.

Mate your making yourself look a little stupid here its not a dumpvalve!!!

Its the wastegate as it shuts it forces the air back out of the rotating (sp)
turbo blades and makes that strange sound like turkies being stuffed under
the bonnet

Not sure if it runs ALS.

P2 uses a modified Subaru Impreza STi engine and all wheel drivetrain, which incorporate two of Prodrive’s innovative technologies to enhance performance – ALS (Anti-Lag System) and ATD (Active Torque Dynamics). The two-litre flat-four engine is fitted with Prodrive’s ALS . This has been derived from the same system currently used on the Prodrive-designed Subaru World Rally Car, but modified for use on the road. ALS can keep the turbo on boost at low engine speeds, giving the car immediate throttle response and improved performance by using more of the engine’s 575 Nm of torque throughout the rev range.

The P2 does not have a DV, it is the chatter off the turbo fins that create the noise. The reason some DV's create the same noise is because they are not releasing all the air to atmosphere.

This is just regards to hearing the flutter noise but running an atmos DV.

SO if you get the flutter noise when closing the throttle, its actually because theres not enough pressure to open the valve at all.

OR is it because theres not enough pressure to keep the valve open whilst the throttle is closed and its the valve opening and closing as the pressure rises and falls.

As for me, I took my atmos DV off on Sunday when I fitted an STI8 IC to my classic - what a difference! Will need some pursuading to go back to atmos DVs.
