January 17, 200521 yr found a picture if you look...what i did was scribe a line where the exhaust turbine was...and came out about 1/4 inch.. then i rounded the complete square edge that is all the way around the turbine outlet, so it is a nice smooth round all the way to the edges of the outlet chamber..if that makes sense.. I also ported the wastegate a little better so it would flow, and not get boost creep. I then drilled a 2nd hole in the outlet flange and made a divorced style downpipe. looked exactly like this actually you can tell it would make a BIG difference. i also port matched the housing to the outlet gasket
January 17, 200521 yr hmmm, I might have to do this. I have an extra turbo sitting around from my engine swap. And when I put my TWE parts on, that would be a good time to change the turbo. Who do I know that has a dremel?....
January 17, 200521 yr I got a knockoff one for 30 bucks cdn and it's lasted a surprisingly long time. D.I.S. that looks really good, I think that's next on my list now that the lifts done, I'd like to make a cone filter adapter for my flapper type MAF too.
January 17, 200521 yr You know, an intercooler sprayer would be a worthwhile cheap mod, Will, that way you wouldn't have to put ice on your intercooler
January 17, 200521 yr Author You know, an intercooler sprayer would be a worthwhile cheap mod, Will, that way you wouldn't have to put ice on your intercooler there was no ait flow over the IC...so justa water spray would have heat soaked it even worse. Their IC fan was not ready at the time...so we just used ice.
January 17, 200521 yr i have an intercooler sprayer on all my cars. Just an elcheapo Windshield washer squirter kit. Came with the bottle, pump, wiring, switch, hose, and nozzles all for 8 bucks!! Us Canadians love Princess Auto. They work well when you are sitting at lights and wanna scare the piss outta buddy. Water does work well....but to keep up on the dyno you'd really need a Hose spraying on it all the time.
January 18, 200521 yr Author I thought of that but we didn't want to get the dyno too wet Mist with the finnished IC blower would hAve been great. Waterspray IC's are illeaga in SCCA Solo2...even tho EVO and STi are factory equippted...they are not allowed to use them on course. :-\ So...im not going to add one for a while.
January 18, 200521 yr Author why? they have a chance of making the ground wet? Yep. Its just the rules...
January 18, 200521 yr slippery when wet. I wonder if Co2 or nitrous would be allowed, or would that make a mess too
