motorcycle carbs are easy to balance. you just need to have two sets of mercury sticks so you have enough but other than that it would be easy. you have to balance motorcycles all the time. and they ahve had 6 cylinder motorcycles actually i think honda had an inline 6 cyl. turbo actually..

that was awsome

Cool, My he351cw is smoking and i am gonna throw a rebuild kit into it.

Hey 78280z hows the planning coming? I dont know if we ever came up with a primary size. I think the size you said would work well. Tony said that was the smallest restriction on the Euro manifold but that is on a log style. where more than one exhaust port is going through that passage. I think that if they all have there own passage that the size will allow more than enough flow for any of our pipe dreams.

have you given any more thought on to what your going to do ti keep this one together??

i have seen many of the there manifolds and they are beautiful. at first they where cracking when they wherent braced. But they have since then started bracing the manifolds and they havent had a problem since.

from what i have measured before i think we could move the flange about an inch closer to the fender well and probably forward about inch and still be ok. This would give us alot more room also i believe. Does someone have an extra manifold laying around to where they can get the measurements? my extra one is at SSAC

have you adjusted the throttle stop that is behind the throttle peddle to allow it to move farther?

yes. it does. it sounds like you have your power source hooked up to somewhere that doesnt get power during cranking. I would try moving the switched power or at least make sure it is on while cranking...

Hey 78280z id just like to say thank you for taking point on the design of the manifold. Looks like your doing awesome so far. Ill keep things going on my end and i hope we can get this going soon.

what head gasket and what was the compression ratio?

id probably say we should go with the one piece. my reason is that gives them one less thing that can be out of alignments.

do you have a good throttle return spring on it? i found when i had a lite spring on it or i forgot to put one on it was to easy to push the throttle and made it really touchy. but then i put a stiffer spring on and it went away.

that was impressive to say the least. makes me want to fine tune my driving skills

It was a stock usdm exhaust manifold. i bought it off of someone on here and then ssac sent a call tag for it to save me shipping. It sounds like we are starting to get somewhere now. Lets keep it going!!!!! Jeff

If all your wanting to run is 12 psi i would just stick with the stock t3 not saying there wouldnt be benifits from running a bigger turbo just that i dont believe the cost of upgrading is going to be worth the hassle. i was running my t3 at 12psi on the stock efi for 6 months and then at 14psi with MS&S for like 3 months. and it had no issues what so ever with the turbo. i did have a starion intercooler and a bov though. so i would just save your money and put it towards something more useful. Like a good 3 inch exhaust.

i say what ever type of bike will keep you interested and keep you riding.

allright so if we are going to make our own manifold where does that put us? i dont have the capabilities to design one. so im gonna need help.

he has the 4 bar

The Guy at ssac says he cant promise that it wont have to be cut up to make a copy of...

From what i understand all the diesel guys upgrade from the hy351cw because the exhaust side gets to hot because of the 9cm exhaust housing. So I would try one of 2 things. !. Try a hx35w or maybe even a hx40w there is many different exhaust sizes available and fan types. 2. Go with a large external waste gate to where your not pushing all the exhaust through the turbine and heating it up. Then you wont be cooking the compression ring. Hope that helps. All the diesel guys say the stock turbo works fine for eveyr day driving but when you start hauling heavy loads the exhaust turbine starts getting to hot. So i think if you only push enough exhaust through the turbine and bypass the rest through an external wastgate it wont get heated up as much.

what are your oil temps

do you have an oil cooler phil?

they are talking about making a log style copy out of stainless. which would flow elot more then the stocker but not as much as a tubular one.
