Re: Turbo V6 Dyno 9/08/08

when u dont have a wideband and cant afford to buy a 300$ wideband setup u tune on the dyno for 100 bucks, specially after getting the base down on a narrow band

x2!

I guess this thread can be locked, because there will be no dyno results.

Re: Turbo V6 Dyno 9/08/08

yup and nor is this the thread for that.
personally i dont give a **** when they come out, i got my money for the headers and setup(im happy),and as far as everyone bitched im no longer wasting my time helping them out.
so yall that were waiting on them can wait even longer till they sort the last few things on there own and get them out there

will tell u one thing they have ditched all the stage kits its gonna be a one or nothing setup.

Re: Turbo V6 Dyno 9/08/08

the pc valve is on the ds valve cover and runs directly into the base of the intake.
i think ur talking about the breather tube on the passenger valve cover.
u can either disconect it from the tb elbow and leave it.
or u can do what i did and hook up a catch can and run a line to the inlet side of the turbo

ill post ya up a picture of it later

Re: Turbo V6 Dyno 9/08/08

On mine, that tube broke. I ended up bying a super tiny breather for a few bucks and clamped it on what was left of the tube. I never could find a push in beather that fit the vc's.

Re: Turbo V6 Dyno 9/08/08

Re: Turbo V6 Dyno 9/08/08

wow these blocks are soo small haha. Its funny that 7psi triples your origional hp i still dont get how a stock motor can take that but ill find out soon enough. Im not going to use a Fmic tho im gonna use a smic becuse Im not planning to go over 7psi and it should fit anywhere. Whats the cheapest place to buy the pipeing would an exhaust shop sell it to me cheaper than summit would?

Re: Turbo V6 Dyno 9/08/08

this may seem like a stupid question, but on the exhaust side, is there a universal location of the flange that's the inlet and one that's the outlet? like in your picture, is it always the square flange for inlet, or does it vary with the turbo? the reason I ask is because a turbo is getting tempting and I don't want to end up fabricating a turbo that blows the wrong way. that would be extremely frustrating.

good luck at your track runs. are you going to a drag strip or a road course?
