BB - Hitman didn't tune my stock ECU - he tuned the SAFC2 which is in my car. The stock ECU has a lot of operating parameters as we all know - we couldn't wind up boost past 11psi as the car would cut out at 4.5K rpm.

sorry mate, silly me forgot about that. just when you said 'tune' and 'stock ecu' for my brain said re-map!

Good talking to you Joe :P

And thanks guys. :(

Links; he doesn't want to use your turbo It's not good enough, he replaces it with a "new" item! Bastard :P..

Hmm.. so flog off mine for 300.. pay for some of the intercooler.. hmm.. not bad.. not bad.. get an aftermarket ECU.. good $2500 upgrade + labour + tuning..

Satanic Im from brisbane/gold coast. Im not sure if its because I had that on holiday glow or something but the women in Sydney are far more willing I found when I was down there a month back.

But f**k driving in that place, what a joke. Better chemists up here however if you need vitamins or berocas hehe

Checked in the coin compartment above your right knee? I always forget I have money there!

??????? no not there, found 2 buttons instead - 1 gave me decent levels of boost, the other gave me ridiculous levels of boost. No coins there - I gather I dont have a coin-slot.

ross80: you must be doing something wrong! Last time I was on the Gold Coast, all I saw was "hi-beaming" everywhere!

Tangles: you're just special! Where can I get those buttons? I believe the $4.80 in my coin tray is a small price to pay for buttons :cheers:

Of course I am. LOL.

Im actually pretty sure you've got the same boost controller that I have! (Hybrid 2stage), plus yours has more kick than mine anyway! Now, my wife has a coinslot stashed somewhere, but hasnt dispensed anything to me for a while, all this talk of highbeams is driving me stiffly up the wall.

:D

anyways, on topic, Im pretty sure I'll be going Ball Bearing, not Bush

Dyno Graph is on my website... follow the link below.

PM me for more details if you want, Northern Beaches Performance has a few deals going on with Sliding Performance at the moment.

Just had a look at your webpage looks like a pretty good setup. Is it as easy to bolt on as the GCG one? Are both the oil and water lines used with the journal bearing setup?

Looking forward to seeing your results with the new injectors and ECU installed.

cheers

Until i see a back to back comparison against a GCG hiflow i wont hold my breath. at half the cost and journal bearing I can't see it being as good.

I am interested in installation routine to get it working and boost response

Just look at my dyno graph.... even though it's half the price and journal bearing, I'm telling you it is very comparable! I should really put my torque curve up :)

Nah, I'm not going to argue - my knowledge is not that great about turbos and I admit that. All I'll say is that I'm very happy with my pet snail and can't wait to feed it some steroids!

Installation is bolt on - provided all smaller fittings and all that are purchased, shouldn't take that long.

Thanks again Stan

The turbo's are straight bolt ins with only very small modifications required and that is to one oil line and banjo bolts/nuts which is very cheap to do and the following instructions will explain.

These modifications are required to assist in cooling and lubricating the journal bearing.

I am more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

Please email me at [email protected] or alternativly just pm me :)

hey i know i sound like a newb asking this, which i am but what is the difference between ball bearing and bush bearing? any spooling differences? which one has longer life?

slide: money is starting to build up... one more week i hope and i will be able to try out this thing.

stan: hey man, im guessing your hitting boostcut? maybe? dunno? hehhee

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Aren't these run off of high voltage in OEM applications? Like 200+V. Or at least 48V in mild hybrids. At ~18,000 BTU ballpark nominal capacity the power draw is at what, 2.2 kW? ~185A is a pretty crazy amount of amps. At 200V it's only 11A. The 70A nominal kits with up to 100A peak draw I see for stuff like classic Porsches have pretty substantial compromises like shutting off at idle and not actually managing to keep the interior cool in hot conditions because they can only output like 6000 BTU. IMO if I had to pick what high amp draw component to retrofit to these cars I would start with the engine fan, not the AC compressor. You need an ~850-1000W brushless fan, something like this: I would love to see the data but I would bet that whatever you save by running the AC compressor in a more efficient regime with an electric motor you're probably losing to conversion losses anyways. It's not really like a clutch fan where you're losing power all the time even when it's nominally disengaged and it gets worse as it engages because the envelope tracking isn't that precise.

      I'm wondering is the Toyota and Mazda "collaboration" could see that new Toyota ???G20 ??? turbo engine that they have been showing off recently into a future MX5, apparently it's good for 400hp out of the box That could easily, possibly, be much better than the last collaboration between Toyota and Subaru with the boxer engine in the twins
