[blow off valve installation]

Ooops I didnt read it was for a diesal

[blow off valve installation]

ohh dear..

 

hook up the vacuum tube.. to a port on the INTAKE manifold..

 

that's it..

 

when the pressure goes from BOOST (full throttle) to VACUUM (no throttle) the BOV opens

[Pics and short reving clip of New Z]

awsome dude!! Love it!! no turbo this time???

[n42 head on turbo motor?]

i ran a turbo on my n47/n42 combo..

 

noo biggie.. just use an intercooler.. and i used a stock head gasket..

 

 

tuning is the key.. TUNING

[Just got back from the track!!!]

ACT is superb..

 

im running a hybrid setup.. so it's ACT heavy duty pressure plate.. and a street organic disc.. so its very driveable.. and holds 415ft/lb .. which ill never touch

[Tungsten T3 and MSnSE!!]

well you can't necessairly "save" fuel maps.. and then load em up whenever..

 

the PDA "reads" the VE and spark tables from the Megasquirt unit..

 

the PDA allows you to view and modify the fuel and spark values .. to upload and "save" the fuel maps to the Megasquirt unit.. hit BURN ...

 

 

I used to tune tune tune.. and I never "burned" the values into the MS unit.. so I would tune it perfectly.. then turn off the car.. and turn it back on. and the settings were trashed.. and the old settings would load up..

 

this was because I never "burned" the new values into the MS unit.. just modified them temporarily..

money sent

[Progress on my front splitter]

effn show off ..

 

 

but *sigh* SUPERB craftsmanship

[Tungsten T3 and MSnSE!!]

hit me up on AIM.. i sent ya a message on there a few minutes ago..

 

I can walk ya through it.. Roger Enns is an awsome guy.. he has put so much time into his programs

[has anyone had there WB o2 sensor go out?]

20.9 AFR is the standard for the FREE AIR calibration..

 

 

the error 8 or error 9 codes are standard when the standalone guage is NOT hooked up to the LM-1

 

 

Try re-calibrating to free air and try again..

 

during heavy load.. and runnign lean.. ive had weird spikes of 60AFR its just the sensor freaking out

[pretty sweet custom velocity stacks]

evildky .. your 100% correct..

 

I generally "think" of a velocity stack as a venturi.. literally the same effect..

 

increase velocity .. decrease pressure in the narrower part of the piping..

 

the velocity stacks simply cut that "venturi" in half.. so now you have this increase in velocity so it can be thrown into the combustion chamber..

 

 

but .. a Venturi tube CAN use a bell opening .. or rolled edges or a air horn (diff terms) .. that just gathers more air

[Progress on my front splitter]

damn.. has it been that long since i've talked to you?

 

Ha.. awsome work my man..

 

why the folds and rivits aroudn the edges?

[brother bought ebay turbo need help.]

yeh i've run a n/a setup for a while..

 

i unfortunatly didnt have as much luck as everyone else.. the N/A ECU was crap..

 

one problem I should of adressed was a Rising Rate Fuel Pressure Regulator.. or an adjustable fuel pressure reg.. that was my big problem..

 

another problem was the timing.. the mechanical dizzy wants to advance.. and I should have sealed up the advance slots so it DIDNT move... advancing timing under boost mean KABOOM!

 

 

So I ran Megasquirt and my n47/n42 combo with a turbo and it was superb!

[pretty sweet custom velocity stacks]

Velocity stacks = AKA = Venturi tubes..

 

 

Aviation shops sell plenty of em...

 

but check out Burns SS .. they have a wide selection of them

[the new konnesig car...crazy]

and I thought the CCR was insane!

 

now a CCX??? ohhh boy

[2007 BMW 3 series twin turbo coupe]

only 300hp from a TT BMW setup??

 

hmm.. even a 4 cylinder Mitusubitchy motor with a single small turbo will hit 300hp...

 

 

but a 6 cyln. with today's technology in a BMW and a twin turbo??

 

i would expect more.. unless im just crazy

[amazing (vintage) F1 race]

i never get sick of that video .. ever

[Inspiring...Twin Turbo Ferrari 348...PICS!]

um.. who cares about the bypass valve .. ughm (i mean sick blow off valve hell yeh!! pssh)

 

anyway.. the Bosch units are superb.. and on a Ferrari engine.. the sound of the exhuast alone is amazing.. why would you ever want to have a loud annoying blow off valve?

[Tungsten T3 and MSnSE!!]

awsome! post pics of it!!

 

if you need any help setting it up.. let me know.. ive dealt with it all with the PalmTune and PalmLog

[Weird smoking problem, turbo 280z...]

hows the PCV setup??

 

too high of crankcase pressure results in the oil being unable to drain out of the turbo..

 

this oil backs up.. out of the oil seal and burns in the exhuast...

 

 

the warmer the exhuast gets, the more smoke... because of the oil burning

 

 

downshifting and decelrating will smoke as well...

[Is this a new idea for TT setup?? Why did'nt anyone think of this?]

how about a signle turbo bolted onto the stock manifold.. and another turbo midway downstream.. maybe in the tranny tunnel =)

 

twin turbo.. just one at the manifold and one in the rear

[AAHHH !! HELP !!! oil leaks suck!]

Ok.. I noticed oil dripping only when running from my engine..

 

I looked and saw oil dripping from the oil pump... simple.. change the gasket.. well I did that..

 

it's still leaking.. but from where?? ahhh the front crank pulley seal.. well.. I checked it and it's fine.. no cracks or anything.. and on top of that the new one I was going to install was the WRONG seal..

 

 

now the oil pan gasket is fine.. but I am very confused..

 

it's very difficult to tell where the leak is, because the oil is dripping onto the pulley.. which is being slung by centrifugal force all over the timing cover..

 

 

any ideas?

[turbo cam vs n/a]

hmm cuz I am using a Holset HY35W and boost hits at 3,600-3,900 RPM..

 

soo .. im debating n/a or my stage I cam ive never installed

[Welp.. all done.. sort of.. motor swap.. VIDEO and pics]

well the actuator is mounted so the w/g puck is slammed shut.. and is very taught..

 

i do need to work on tuning.. but ehh.. spools way too slowly for me

[Welp.. all done.. sort of.. motor swap.. VIDEO and pics]

well performance is definatly different..

 

I was used to a small T3 and a 8.3:1 compression ratio..

full boost at like 2,200 RPM in 5th gear..

 

now I have a turbo which in my opinion is too big.. and 7.3:1 CR... full boost at like 3,500 RPM in 4th gear

 

 

I do miss my old motor.. it was peppy and snappy..

 

but this new one.. when the boost hits.. it effn hits!

 

Overall I am happy... still have ALOT of work to do.. but hell..

 

it's a daily driven, air conditioned road car.. what more can I ask for?
