Fair few miles being racked up then.

We must sort the shoot once it's back working

tweeqd · 21st July 2011, 21:10

fingers crossed it makes it back from france then lol

Ryan^p · 21st July 2011, 21:30

Better ask carworx if they can help finish it then

tweeqd · 28th July 2011, 19:47

manifold is done

turbo is all fitted up and back on

added oil return to the sump and made up an oil drain for the turbo

then once the sump was on ive got some joe gibbs breaking in mineral oil from the states

then the final piece, the screamer pipe :mrgreen:

i know it looks untidy but im short on space

blackie_2k5 · 28th July 2011, 19:51

very nice. mani looks much better this time round mate, i think you should get a black powder coated rocker, too shiny in there now

Sophia_Bush · 28th July 2011, 19:52

I'm sorry Martin that looks nearly finished

ps if your at dt passenger ride?

tweeqd · 28th July 2011, 19:59

apart from the downpipe it is

, i did try starting it today but the crank sensor needs setting in the ecu and for some reason my laptop wont talk to my DTA

i like the shiny andrew, im looking for an alloy brake fluid cover (and it took days to get the inlet that shiny lol) the screamer and manifold will be coated white

Coming along nicely and how you squeeze it into that tiny enginebay is beyond me

understand why you went 8v now

I spy water injection pump or is it being used for the NOS injection?
Thx.

tweeqd · 28th July 2011, 21:12

water/methanol injection AND direct port nitrous with a progressive controller

although the nos is on its own second map and the water/meth wont be used on that map

i want to see how the 8v setup works for now, but if i do get bored i have a JP4 head and will mke an inlet for it

manc · 28th July 2011, 21:27

Intresting mix, didnt think you could mix o2/meth & nos...

All the reading up I have done up on o2/meth injection makes me think its such a good idea and setup properly can do so much good to a turbo charged engine, even if its a low pressure none progressive setup, I am tempted by one of the progressive o2/meth kits but would love to hear your opinion on these as there is just a wash of them out there...

Thanks.

you can run water and nos but nos has the same cooling properties as water but acts as a better fuel so the water just takes up the space the nos could be in

ive only used pure water in the past not mixed with meth, ive read some great results of scoobys adding 10% meth in to the fuel tank

im hopeing i can get some good results on mine even though it isnt a progressive one, mines just a Aquamist 1s i bought about 6 years ago

blackie_2k5 · 30th July 2011, 14:27

yeah i did wanna polish mine but thought...erm no lol too much hassle, looking good anyway, isthe mani/screamer S/S? or mild?

REVO_OTE · 30th July 2011, 17:34

thats cool was thinking the same for my next project

as i dont have a TIG welder and im not buying another mani... any ideas how much ceram is gonna cost? i assume your getting ceramic?

sure rossdagley had a link on his turbo blog for a company..

edited my above post btw^^ as it sounded like i was being a cunt although that not what i was going for

tweeqd · 31st July 2011, 23:30

there are 2 compnys, cam coat and zircotec
cam coat are cheaper but the zircotec one is a better quality

not sure on cost yet but i think it will be about £200 ish

ive had to cancel the mapping for this week as i cant get my laptop to talk to my DTA (it talks to emerald no problem) so i cant do the basic settings, i think its a windows 7 problem with DTASwin

tweeqd · 10th August 2011, 21:14

finally got chance to go and get my car from janspeed
while there i saw a nice one having a system made

now the good bit

and wrapped the screamer

(i know there is a plastic cable tie on there but im waiting for the metal ones to turn up, and the rust showing on the manifold and turbo was due to the torential rain when i trailerd it down)

these also turned up last week

blackie_2k5 · 10th August 2011, 21:22

exhaust looks mint mate, wish there was places like this near me, only decent place for exhaustsup here is AAS, and although their quality is second to none...there prices are feckng unreal, and theyre not exactly a well known outfit such as janspeed..

so we any further forward RE laptop?

tweeqd · 10th August 2011, 21:29

mate trust me janspeed know how to charge

no matter what i do my asus wont talk to it, ive got an IBM thinkpad with a serial port i use for my mercedes software but now i cant find the DTA software disc and the thinkpad doesnt have internet on it

blackie_2k5 · 10th August 2011, 21:34

hahaha, ohh i can imagine janspeed cutom work isnt cheap...tbh you pay for the time of the comany name with places like that these days...but as i said, id still like the name on my system

AAS will be doing my next one...centre exit i think, keep things nice and smooth

not a got a mobile dongle for the internet?
