any one use this? any problems? suggestions?

Golden Eagle Mfg. Vtec Conversion Kit $85 shipped


I will be running a greddy civic 92-95 turbo kit, and i would like to use this to feed oil to the turbo, and run a oil pressure sensor on the Golden Eagle piece.

 

im using it on my car, works great and no leaks so far. i think it came in pretty handy.

 

How many sensors are you able to tap off it?

I believe 2

 

are there any seals to go in between?

 

I love mine.....Much nicer than removing the oil sending unit.

 

I just bought one and I can't wait to install it on my block.

June

 

Seal faces the block side ....


Works like a champ-0 ... 1+ yrs on my block & w/o a problem.

 

85 seems somewhat expensive for a oil filter sandwich...
I want to find one that isnt so expensive...

 

So this will fit in D series blocks? i believe the oil filter size is the same on D and B series but i want to be sure.

 

I just picked up one of these things from tunertoys.com

Can't wait to get the rest of my turbo stuff in so I can finally cross over to the dark side. Muahahahaha.

 

using one for my ls/vtec turbo. very handy. recommended.

 

this is what i have

59.99
and has 3 (count them 3!!) ports to plugin sensors...

 

We have these available:

I must have had the defect of the group, when we installed mine with the new honda oil filter, the threads didn't continue enough on the adaptor for the oil filter to get snug, therefore we started up the car and 1 qt of my new mobil 1 sync came out onto the floor. Got out the grinder, so that it could tighten down more and it works perfectly. I know when i bought mine, no one had problems, but I had to get a little custom on mine to get it to work, maybe it was that one honda filter as well. either way, with the new filter i put on and the custom grinding, works perfectly. I have my oil pressure and oil temp located off it.

 

Ill be picking up one of these.

just to make sure, i can use one hole for the oil feed for turbo and one for oil pressure sensor?

 

I am not going to say they are bad becouse alot of people have had good luck with them but for me it hasnt been the best investment. I have ghad a leak since day one and I just change my oil today and it is worse. Maybe I got a bad one or maybe I didnt install it right but its pretty straight forward. I have had it on and off a couple time and I am really concidering the AC one.

Sounds like you put it ON backwards .... I've seen it happen.

The GE ones work great and look clean

I am pretty sure I have it on right the side with the seal goes toward the block. I am going to take it back off and try to gring down the stud and see if that takes care of it. I will admit it looks great

 

anyone used one of these with a oil cooler as well. , what kinda pressure does this push.

platinum.

 

i jus got one a couple days ago and its been leakin since...i pulled it off and put it on bout 6 times so far and i gotta try again tomorrow...

 

the ac ones dont work with an oil cooler i beileve. i have a GE one that is made for use with an oil cooler, it works great, the only thing i dont like is it only has 2 ports .

That's beacause it was NOT desinged for any other purpose, only VTEC changeovers & turbo oil tap/supply line ....
