wooden stick

Is that to beat you over the head?

I have also had the starter go, the copper winding overheated and blew apart at the commutator. No amount of bashing is going to fix that, im sorry Aaron. :nyaanyaa:

anyone know what turbo is on our cars? the exact model? so i can frikin find a flange for it???

i need an unmolested flange ( a flat flange with only the bolt holes) and i full on cannot be f**ked hand making one! but it looks like im going to have to if you guys cant help!

i made a bellmouth one tonight using the flange of the stock dump pipe. but would rather get the split dumpie on there sooner rather than later

I get them laser cut, I could get it without the inside done but why bother when there is a cut-out in the turbo outlet anyway. Just make a bell-mouth, it will flow much better... I have been waiting to see your work. :)

    • A bit of data is always good, beats the Facebook experts with their opinions I have Bosch 1480cc injectors, often called 1650cc (only when run at 4bar). I run mine at 3bar base so I don't thrash the fuel system. Up top, making 437kW with boost dropping, injector duty is at 69% on E80 (might have had some residual 98RON in there)  
    • I have some downtime due to winter, and just wrapped up converting the car over to flex fuel. We don't get E85 at the pump over here in Canada, but I will be running Ignite E90 Race gas. I'll be mixing it with 99-100 RON pump gas and shoot for 50% ethanol content, up to possibly 85% content if there's any noticeable gains. Here's the question. Most I'll ever want to hit is ~600rwkW. I've currently running 1200cc injectors and want to keep them under 90% duty cycle. As per some online injector calculators, I should be good with 1200's well past 600rwkw on E85. As per other calculators, I'll need 1600-2000cc's. The variety is rather amusing.  With you Australians having E85 at the pump, what realistic duty cycles are you seeing in those kW ranges on E50 & E85 on your injectors? Thanks, 
    • No issues here with my PRP gears in an OEM pump housing. I did confirm all housing clearances were to spec prior though. Cheers. 
    • Thread is a bit old but figured id give my input anyway just incase. Have had lots of water problems in my R32 and was getting sick of wet tools in the boot and water filling up half my taillights. I ended up finding that whenever my car had been repainted they didn't reseal the taillights to the body of the car so water was just flowing straight into the boot, this is amplified by all the water around the bootlid being directed down to the taillights so would get pretty wet whenever I washed the car or it rained. You could probably use silicone to seal them to the body but I think from factory they use a roll of automotive grade butyl rubber. Hopefully this helps you if that ends up being how the water is getting in on your car!
    • Correct And whatever you do, don't use an oil pump gear, especially the one that starts with the same letter as Santa and the last letter ends with the same first letter as Lagoon. Get a proper oil pump, like a Nitto, Tomei, etc. and make sure you invest in a big fk off sump. Won't go into too much detail, but I am sure it caused my previous built motor to go bang.
