That is how my housing fit an H1E I had laying around IIRC.

I'm sure its the dates the runs were performed on.

Hopefully fixed your photo links.

Glad you got it figured out and its working for you. :thumb:

These are the part numbers listed in the megasquirt megamanual for various after market sensors if it helps.GM #25036751 Standard AX1 GP SORENSEN 779-19001 AC DELCO 213-190 NIEHOFF IGNITION TS83631 was DR-136W WELLS SU107 MSD 2320 (includes connector)

Only the center and the VGT controller motor/gearbox.There is a small pin you have to remove between the CHRA and the housings and then they can be clocked anywhere as long as the exhaust flange doesn't hit your feed line fittings.

98 eagle talon TSI (proof of fresh motor)"depending on price i also have a garret 14b turbo pushing 28psi.." :hellyeah:

See metal in the oil? Sure sounds like rod knock to me. Also sounds like it was not right in the first video, the loud knock when first started before oil pressure built up.

Be careful using fasteners of a different metal than what you are bolting together. Add salt water with metals of different electro negativity and you create a battery and severe dissimilar metal corrosion.

What about the sticker in the drivers door jamb? IIRC the build date is there on both my 90 and 95.

Yep. I was disappointed, but not surprised. Was interested in getting some holset maps.

I talked to my friend who worked at the Gas turbine lab at Kansas State University over the summer. He looked into the cost for having a map generated for a turbo. Ouch, its $3k-$7k area for an automotive sized turbo.

Also Paul, you sort of mentioned it, but I don't think enough emphasis was put on it. You started your dyno pulls at 500-1500 rpm later than those other dynos makes the torque curve you put down MUCH more impressive. You started at ~4000 RPM and torque came in immediately. They started much...

Its really hard on transmissions and drivetrain parts hitting fuel cut too. It loads and unloads the drivetrain to rapidly, the shock loads are very hard on stuff.

That 9.8:1 at WOT is only at the highest load rows on the fuel map IIRC. At "5psi" he shouldn't be anywhere close to that.What the car is doing is exactly the same as the very first time I drove a DSM 12 years ago. I ended up finding a hole in the upper IC hose by the battery you could...

I don't have the random miss code problem since I'm not running a stock ECU. Running MS actually. This was more an observation as to the possible causes of the ECU picking that up. The car isn't actually missing in those cases, it just senses what it thinks is minute changes in crankshaft...

So I was having trouble today with getting megasquirt to sync and pick up an RPM signal. Took apart the CAS to test it, found it had gotten wet and not getting a CAM signal out of it.In the process of trying to figure out the issue, I think I observed at least part of the issue that causes...

The method described in this thread is better. Allows you to do this but also keep the benefits of twin scroll when its not activated. Spool Device - Team NABR

Check how the actual turbine wheel fits in thou housing. The Hx40 housing is cut for a larger turbine wheel and will have a large gap between the wheel and housing.

Remove the covers and measure the wheels. The best way to figure out what it is.

I built something sort or similar and uglier to fit my VGT turbo on a stock manifold.It had to move out and down to fit, as well as the non standard flange as well as provide a waste gate port.Its ugly but just to show the basic concept would probably work if you found the right...

Keep working on the details. Make sure you read through the MSextra manual. It should answer a lot of your questions. There are so many variations of stuff that its hard for someone to really give you a lot of help without being there and seeing what you are working with. If you have some idea...

Lucky you have a good DSM source so close. :thumb:

We are going to need a lot more information. What version of MS and what version of firmware. Is it setup for fuel only, or spark too. Are you using megatune, tunerstudio, or one of the other programs for connecting to the MS and tuning?Going to need as much detail as possible.

Pretty normal. Should be ok

Some form of timing and fuel control like he said becomes even more critical with higher than stock compression and the already aggressive stock 1g timing map. Then you ad trying to tune larger injectors and the timing goes even higher, and on crap 91 octane. The recipe is NOT for fun or...

Was it the same location? It sure is very thin in that area outside the bolt hole.Its interesting that several people have had this happen.Luckily I had 3 spare ones laying around. ROFL

Damn sweet. I've wanted to do something like this forever. Damn money!

Something I ran into. Picked the car up for cheap for parts last winter. Went to clean up the crank sprocket and install it. Possibly from over tightening the harmonic balancer bolts since its one of those holes cracking out? Just something to look out for. One of the other bolt holes has a...

This would be the best advice IMO.

Get HE351VE VGT turbo(6.7 cummins turbo). Run with open 02 housing and with a 14b wastegate actuator controlling the VGT. The whistle is unbelievable when running under 7psi or so. Drive under an overpass at 70mph it sounds like a small jet flying over. Exhaust is also very quiet other than...

Its strange how many people have had this cracking issue. It would be interesting to know the manufacture date of the ones who have found the cracks.

Here is that part of the email from him. I assume its accurate since its straight from their rep. It was a response to a question I asked him if some of it doesn't make sense lol.

Mine was always babied until being warmed up. It also never took anything over ~300whp. Was DD'd most of its ~20,000 miles. Very conservative timing, AFR's, and run on E85 for most of the "hard" miles.In other words nothing that a stock motor wouldn't have survived without a hitch...

That is exactly the same cracking that I experienced. I'll try and get some pictures to add to the thread.

I've had something similar happen. I contacted Brian via email about a set of pistons that the skirts cracked in the exact same manner. Car ever made more than 350whp on a 2.4. Never experienced any detonation that a stock piston wouldn't have taken in stride, pistons look great except for...

It doesn't take driving hard and high boost to get the turbo pretty hot. Drive at 70mph for 5-10 min at night(no boost only vacuum), pull over and pop the hood in a dark place. You will see the manifold, and turbine housing glowing a bit.To the OP, I ran a B16g for around 15k miles...

You need to give some more information. Boost especially.

This sounds like you capped the boost line off and didn't have any boost signal going to the wastegate?

You didn't accidentally unplug the MAF plug part way while installing the WG ? Also large vacuum leaks can sometimes cause it.It shouldn't be dumping at idle unless the fire ring is missing, or there isn't a spring in the gate at all.

Which is it though, a GM-8 or a Duramax turbo?The GM-8 is off the older 6.5 diesels and is a much smaller turbo than the turbos on the Duramax trucks.It would probably be good to know for the people helping with the oiling.

The lack of a rewire is killing the pump performance I believe. IIRC the 044 draws more power than a 255 so the rewire is even more important.Especially at your higher boost/fuel pressures where current draw goes up quite a bit.

Its like a piston ring. There are pictures here. Turbo Rebuild And better ones here. Why does my GT smoke when the oil seals in the head and the rings are fine?- Answered - Mazda MX6 Forums: MX6 Forum

Get them to send you what you ordered. SBR is famous for sending the wrong stuff. Make them take care of it.I prefer running off the O2, or collector. I hate the sound of a dumped WG that runs off a single runner if you choose that. Its also easier to recirculate back into the exhaust...

#1 I plugged them.#2 I used the 4g63 front cover.#3 use the 63 pan. No mods required.#4 not sure#5 Main studs need alight honed. Headstuds don't need machine work.

+1 Thats definitely causing all the confusion.

Haha. I am too, have a pretty great g/f. Maybe I can get her interested. Its nice she doesn't complain about my car, and doesn't mind going to the track, car shows, etc.The ones who truly like cars though, didn't have any luck when I was looking.

Where are all these girls? lol

Are there any part numbers on it? Turbonetics 2009 CatalogThe turbonetics catalog. The inlet size says its a TO4B compressor cover.Page 34-35 has the compressor wheels on it. Does the compressor have a even number of blades or odd? A uneven number will make your inducer...

The plate that is directly behind the compressor wheel, the part that the compressor cover attaches to. If the back of the compressor wheel has a different contour, or a different size exducer it needs machine to match or if it bolts on replaced with one that matches.
