Dose Pipe Sutututu

The last few photos nearly look like rust from the motor sitting around for ages, however I'm semi colour blind so that doesn't help lol.

I like this page, better than that silly turbo kit https://v8roadsters.com/product-category/engine-conversions/engine-conversion-lsx/engine-conversion-lsx-nc/

Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.

Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)

I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).

It will sound tragic and you wished you didn't have 1x exhaust per turbo. There's a reason why most S55 owners change to a single mid pipe.

The real test is how it will perform at Roll Racing against all the heavies

With all the rust on those R32s, how can it even support all the extra weight requirements. Probably end up handling as well as a 1990s Ford Falcon Taxi.

Actually I drive my own cars very hard, much harder than other people's cars, even rentals I treat with respect.

In true Gregging style...

Then eventually someone in a Tiguan MK2 with an email toon and some random Alibaba pipes. (FWIW, I ran a 12.9s down the 1/4 in the wife's car)

You know the saying, a poor man pays twice, sometimes fourice lol.

So when will the Samsonas, twin scroll turbo setup on go?

In terms of base maps, Haltech ones are the best by far. The ignition table for VCT motors are nearly the same as the OEM one (vacuum area -> atmospheric). Provided the AFRs are safe and fuelling is good, I would not hesitate taking the base map onto a track with a near stock turbo. Disclaimer: I pretend to know what I'm doing, and have only blown up two of my own motors and noone else's motor I've tuned in the past.

My manifold is ceramic coated by them, can't say my engine bay is any cooler. If the manifold ever comes off, I'll go down the real thermo shield/wrap thing.

More so heat management so you don't melt stuff around the turbo, especially if you decide to hit the track.

Followed!

full send the cnut, do this fark the wrapping and/or stick on siet. These guys are the ones to go to: https://www.realthermo.com.au/

Just had a look, they don't. Fuelling on the base map is purely alpha-N, and the ignition table is MAP. Remember it's just a base map to get the car moving

Means something is not set up right, tune/calibration related.

It's not bad, it's just not flexible. And say if you have any leaks between the MAF and plenum, well then your load axis goes out the window. Here's a real world scenario, I blew off an intercooler hose last track day, as the clamp decided to Bluetooth itself somewhere. Still continued to do 2 laps and drive it to the pub for a couple of beers then home. Good luck doing that with a MAF setup

Not really, I think of you search stuff you'll most likely end up on @R3N3's build thread or mine lol. Better off using Google to search SAU, the built in forum search isn't as sophisticated as Google's search.

I'll send you screen shots tomorrow when I'm on the laptop 😊

If you need to refinance your mortgage and reset the loan terms back to 30 years and cash out on your equity for "investment" purposes *cough* car parts, I can help 😊
