i got whatever came with the kit. and what u mean set it up for my vaccum? i got it plugged in where it said to? lol do i run it a diff way or tap it to something?

 

So it's running good with no tune on the 79's? Thats another cool thing about turbos. They aren't as sensitive

 

I have a good base tune for the 79s

 

you need to unscrew the top of the bov and cut the spring till it is set up for about 20 in/hg vacuum otherwise you will have mad comp surge.

doesent you bov flutter when you let off the gas? it goes cha cha cha cha pshhhhhhh, instead of jush pshhh???

thats comp surge.

 

i think it does. ill take a look at that today or tomororw thx. and yeh idk if i can even heard it me and my dad were talking about that today. ill try it out today with my bro

 

What a/f are you running at wot?

 

idk havent taken it to wot yet. ill be finding out today now that i got my wideband sensor in.

FOR YALL TURBO GUYS. EXPEREICED ONES LIKE HUNGRY . PAUL ETC what turbo timer yall recommend? if yall even reccomend one? i know for boost controller i might go for a hallman for now

 

get the hallman from nori bilt.. and be a real man. .just leave ur car on for a few mins lol.


cant wait to run u when i get my clutch

 

I am and lol thats what i been doing but eh sometimes i gotta get out the car fast and be on my way to do things or places so need to have it just incase. im not trying to buy a new turbo until atleast 3-5 more months

 

unless you beat on it real hard and then turn it off right after than you will be fine, we have oil coolers so the turbo gets fed 180* oil instead of about 240-260 on other cars.

honestly, i just use my egt gauge if its below 900 then i just shut it right off if its above 1000 then i wait till it drops to 800-900 which takes about 1-2 min

just idling its @ 700* for example. but once the turbo gets hotter than 800 it seems it wont ever come back down to 700* no matter how long it idles so i turn it off between 8-900

turbo timers are cool, but i would look into something that has 1 remote and does the following features:

1. turbo timer
2. alarm
3. remote start
4. keyless entry
5. trunk release

they have em out there just i really hate wiring, so i have been putting it off for yr or 2

 

alright and which gauge u have for egt? and yeh true but wiring aint my friend either lol

 

i have this one cause the color matches the stock gauges.

thx will look into that and the install. thx for all the help man really apreciate it

 

no prob!

 

time to go home. install gauge pod and wideband sensor and take it for a lil drive

 

hungrychip I was curious to how your car is doing with the s256 with the .55 a/r. I was looking at that exact turbo and I live right around the corner from extreme psi so I was going to talk to those guys about it to. Like how is your spool time. I understand your losing a little up top but my car is a still a dd so I live in the low rpm ranges.

 

spend the money and get the extended tip, with smaller exducer @ 69.5/61.5 i full spool at 3700 so with the smaller wheel you should see full spool @ 3400

ZZP runs the .55ar there making 600 crank and 510whp the BW .55ar housing is the ******* **** dude, i have never seen something flow so well and still spool so fast (for journal bearing anyways)

 

this lil mother effer pulls! wow what a diff lol. the money into the swap was all worth it

 

did you buy most parts used?

 

How many pounds are you running now?

 

the whole kit used lol but wasent even use for more than 1k i beleive so pretty much close to brand new

just 15 until i get my exhaust next and cruise it like that for a bit then getboost controller , clutch and a good good tune.

 

so what was your wot afr?

 

10s. too damn rich will be logging car today and hopefully sending to paul to lean it out

 

Good to hear it's up and running @ 15psi. Running hella rich, I'm sure you will get straight. I'm still waiting to hear if my turbo has been shipped...

 

you will pick up alot of top end by leaning it out, 15* timing @ 15psi @ 11.8 afr you should be in the 320 range.
