*trix* turbo lsj build thread w/pics
i ran 25-26psi for about two days, never knew it...boost gauge maxed at 20 and the day or two before i thought i had set the boost controler to 21...i must have given it an extra twist.
pulls like a SOB, but makes limited extra power.
i know i know, you don't condone the use of journal bearing turbo's
any idea of the time frame till they release it, and the cost? also whether or not they will offer a choice of t-3 and t-4 flanges. another question i have is if you run a journal bearing turbo won't you need a scavenge pump for the return line with the turbo sitting that low?

yup!
and just for clareification, if the oil return works on my BB unit, a journal barring unit will have no issues.
jurnal barring turbos require full operateing oil pressure so they arnt a fraction as pickey as a BB unit when dealing with oil feed/return.

ok cool, i was under the impression that with a journal bearing turbo the drain had to flow very well or it would cause leaks, and also cause the oil to sit in the housing and not drain.
you need a working drain, but like i said, if it works on a BB turbo, it will be more then fine on a journal barring.
i will whenever i go lol
i hope so cause at least im running 3 inch piping all around and a short ass sideexit 3 inch exhaust lol your gonne hear the turbo growl in my exhaust its gonna be great
