Engine swap and bigger turbo upgrade project

I wonder if that also applies to my Z1 GT675RS's? I'm using the AMS 3" Super Split dumps.

 

wtf is ur point? im not debating about something im just throwing in my 2c. whether its taken into consideration or not is not ur problem. it has me confused about the situation hence i felt id like to comment, was it illegal?

since you have decided to comment further, regardless if it has been proven or not with no change in power etc i am stating the purpose of a split dump. they have not commented on using a bellmouth and for all you know the bellmouth could produce more power as i can just imagine it would have less turbulance that what this setup would create. they have only commented on with or without the seperator, im only guessing for sale purposes as if they are going to say no dont use our product the bell mouth will be better for u be it opinion or not i think people are entitled to that hence why i posted.

 

they said big turbos

they will be fine ..thats what I'm going to run .
big turbos like sz exp90 should really have external wastegates

 

Greg responded my query again and I like to proceed as he recommended and want to find out the outcome hence nobody has this setup to prove him wrong. Deviders can be placed later on to find out the difference in 2nd dyno run...

" The air coming out of the turbo is very turbulent no matter what....Breaking up the turbulence and establishing direction of flow with 2 separate pipes is huge.....A bellmouth design allows the turbulence to continue. We have tested open vs. split pipe and the difference is dramatic. Running the spacers or not is the same as we have tested it on about a dozen different cars now.
I would be happy to send you the spacers, but I guarantee you will have boost creep with these turbos and adding the dividers. This is all we do and we do and we continue to test and make improvements where ever we can.
I will not steer you the wrong way."

 

you have more important things 2 think about then if your dump pipe has a divider inside... get the motor in running. cam timing setup correctly. some kind of base tune.

then your looking at complete fuel system overhaul, exhaust work. etc etc..
have you taken your sump off and had a look inside the motor yourself. ??

 

understandable. it sounds like the turbulance is disrupted at first when hitting the dump, then by the time its come out of the split section the turbulance has relaxed somewhat by then... good stuff on getting to the bottom of it kabir

 

Only time will tell when the car will be tuned in dyno...until then just hoping Greg is right. So much stress to deal with, just can't handle anymore.

 

ill be loading the base map on and changing things like injector sizes
and changing a few things so it will run. timing looks fine but ill get my degree wheel onto it just to double check. but all looks good

 

Kabir got mine running today, you are going to be more than happy with the results

 

Can't wait to finish mine. Will ask you lot of questions later.

 

No worries, if you have any questions I'll try and answer them

 

Engine out. was hassle free.























Mandatory shot.



Tried to take out the stupid bracket to replace the EFI harness. when it was alomost out I chopped the AC condenser hard line...argh. ended up taking out the whole dash.

Engine bay repainted.

 

how did you chop the AC line? hahaha

 

Could avoid if I could use a hand driven hacksaw instead a electric one. one of the hard line passed very close the damn bracket inside cabin. thanks for the spare condenser. what a relief.

 

no prob mate

 

OS Giken twin plate clutch bolted.





Engine is ready to get in. Last few shots before drop the engine.














Engine dropped. Gearbox bolted. Dumps fitted without any drama.







Passenger side turbo intake pipe hitting aircon hardline.





Driver side turbo intake pipes fitted. took me hours to line them up but less hassle.







Installed innovative LC-1



Passenger side turbo intake pipes fitted. took me 5 hours to line them, took some metal off from ac hard line, took aircon pump off again, cut off 4 cm heat shield. not fun at all. This kit isn't plug and play.











Next is the fuel lines...

 

Considering that the turbo's are three frame sizes bigger than stock, I reckon it's pretty amazing that you didn't have to mod more to make them fit. Do they clear the chassis rails? Looks like the compressor housings touch?

 

Thats awsome man well done

 

that is looking so tide man, i love it.

ohh thanks for teasing people who cant afford it,LOL.
i love to see the resoult in the nite cruise buddy.

 

Wow, what a build! Your powerband is gunna be tiny though! What sort of power are you aiming for... >500rwkw? I was gunna put the T3 version of this turbo on my MR2 in a few months.. Is the smaller frame flange on these a restriction? Thought that was the restriction with the small 1.5 litre/turbo - not having T3 flanges. Am I wrong?
And WLDTTZ, how long have ya had the MR2 for mate! Great cars aren't they?
