Turbo high flowing!!

[twin eng, twin turbs]

Nice work. I like it when people use some ingenuity to get more power instead of just forking out cash for new parts.

Cheers thanks mate!

Yes the exhaust housing........................................

thanks mate, very helpful. between mollins and i we have a few turbo parts lying around now, and i'm curious to start playing around with stuff.

now knowing the specifics of the turbine wheels you're dealing with, your logic about retaining a good spool up becomes more obvious to me. cheers.

next time i'm out at orange i'll have to meet up with preeny and yourself for a chinwag.

*watches with intrest*

defiantly want to keep an eye on this one. Good info here

Yeah for sure, allways keen to talk dubs and performance mods. We could go for a cruise aswell. Cheers

Just a update, everything has been back together for a week now and going harder than ever before with boost on only 13psi. In the first two gears it makes a bit more power than before but once into third the turbo gets loaded up and the rate at which it excellerates is unreal hitting redline in a few seconds and forth much the same. Before i turboed the car it would hit a wall of aerodynamics at 170km per hour and slowly gain speed to a 195km but now it hits rev limiter in fifth at 7200 rpm with a 020 16v box, on a closed road of course..... Heres a pic showing the size difference in compressor wheels from before and after. I couldn't photograph the machining as the camera was flat when i did it.

In the pic above you can see the white on the side of the larger wheel from test fitting, seeing where it is to tight and adding clearance to the housing to get the profile just right. In this pic below you can see how much clearance isnt available when you install a turbo behind an 8v. If you look close you can see the 3" downpipe which is the size of the entire exhaust system i made.

I am also building a no expense spared 2.1 litre 16v with a customised GT 35r and an exhaust housing that flares out to a 4" down pipe

PICSORBAN!


Great work, looks fantastic and the results sound the same.

man we need pics and details of all these secret projects of yours!

In good time, i will do a thread on the full restoration of the scirocco and the chopping up of its floor pan! When i fit a Audi S3 driveline!

btw why 4pots all round? isnt that overkill on the rear? and if its not, then why are the fronts only 4 pot lol?

[twin eng, twin turbs]

The fronts run much larger pistons than the rear and with adjustable bias i can set it just right. It may seem like overkill but im building what should be a 10 sec 1/4 car with hillclimbs, track days etc being my aim i want the best i can afford to fit...

[mollins]

Cheers mate, do you remember that alloy cam cover i bought off you? Its in the first pic with the fins machined off and polished up!

good to see something put to good use!

glad to hear the turbo gets you the power you wanted. Would be great to have that power bump with such a minimal increase in weight. Sounds like you will have plenty of fun on that closed private road of yours.

mischa.. this guy is nuts.. im still hoping one day he'll post some more info about his twin eng mk1 and his crazy mk2 (with pics). he loves to keep us hanging.

btw. im definitely coming with aydan when he heads up to orange sometime! hopefully when the mk1 is finished!

[Jarred]

Dude, I'm totally roadtripping up to orange after exams!

I WANT SOME PICTURES!

scirocco with S3 driveline?!?!

Twin engine mk 1?!?!?

Crazy mk 2!?!? Dude... pics, like really. STAT!

hahah, no pretty please.
