Waiting for your dyno sheets

 

Ever reconsidered changing the angle of the turbo or running a scavenge pump? But for extreme turbo angles, even scavenge pumps don't work.

Make sure it is within +/- 15deg at any rotational angle as stated:

"When installing your turbocharger, insure that the turbocharger axis of rotation is parallel to the level ground within +/- 15°. This means that the oil inlet/outlet should be within 15° of being perpendicular to level ground"

Besides that, everything looks good

 

i really like that fab work man.. makes that single cam look sick.. glad to see some sick **** being done with the single camer.

 

sweet stuff, man!
let's see some numbers!

 

Sick fab work, even sicker on single cam.

Can't wait to see it in action!

 

wow

 

that pic of it off the car is my new desktop lol

 

holy **** this is just sick fab work

 

nice wastegate placement

 

Craziness! Looks nice and busy, the way I love it!! :D

 

Looks awesome as always Weir. Take this with a grain of salt, because I'm not hating at all, more just curious... Any reason why the wastegate is more prioritized over the turbo as far as flow through the manifold goes? I'm sure the setup still works just fine, it's just something I haven't really seen before

 

If you did this... You'd probably have a different username

Nah seriously, we've done it before, but not to that extreme, actually looks like the wastegate pipes bigger than the turbo. We normally do it the other way, with the wastegate coming off the 90 rather than the turbo.

Hope its a smooth transition, hard to tell from the outside.

 

Don't get me wrong, I know that this setup will never ever creep. Lol. Just seems like overkill a bit if that's the whole reasoning behind it

 

the customer wanted it to be wastegate priority to control boost. the wastegate has a 2.5" inlet into it, where as the turbo only has a 2.25" inlet. that is the reason for the different size piping.

 

The customer is always right. Either way, looks great. Keep up the good work

 

i've seen it on plenty of setups. here is one of my favs, the cosworth xfe engine:


they want to control boost so accurately they even have a throttle body at the intake plenum mouth as well as barrel throttles in the head to control flow.

 

Ill take a custom mani.

 

This is the best thing Ive ever seen here on honda tech (thank you)

 

Hey man any updates?

 

akk if your work is quality. everytime i see it, its always the firs thing that pops into my head.

 

It's up and running as of Thursday. Rescheduled dyno for Monday tentatively. Still have alot of work to do on the rest of the car but will post up more pics and numbers when I have them.

It sounds good!

 

wow, nice work!

 

 

is that a homemade lip?

great build..

 

Yeah.
