Borg Warner EFR 6258 well that would be my next choice of turbo. Far more advanced than any garrett unit on sale at the moment. Only trouble is they can be hard to source from what I've read and price tag of 1k+ :cry: maybe next year for me.

I wouldn't have thought even as big as a .86 would spool late. I get full boost by 4k with a .86 rear(can't really go into detail about wheel sizes and trim etc... As I don't know) on a b18ft so with the extra capacity and better flowing head you should get full boost a fair bit earlier.
be one of these

this one for faster response :D
http://www.atpturbo.com/mm5/merchant...egory_Code=GRT+ billet compressor wheel
or this one for out right power, without toooo much lag:p
you've got the cams / head / exhaust system for it;)
perfect :cool:

Looks like the kiddy to me:agree: , but 1K - my car's not worth 1K :laugh:Quote:

Txt me what kind of drive you are after and power and I will run through some bits and I can look at some compressor maps and come up with a few turbos at different budgets for you ;)
Can we do it on here JP, and give some idea of how best to look at this so it's usefull to others and also a permanent reference for myself? Possibly do a write up on turbo sizing for Sparkies LOL under the Tech section. I'll kick it off if you like?Quote:

you have to purchase the ar turbine housing yourself(exhaust side) prob a .63 in your case.
the second turbo is running a 56mm turbine wheel , hardly world shattering sizes here....:( again you can choose your own ar turbine housing, this maybe a bit bigger laggier than your use to, but you did say rosses was about this size, so please dont **** yourself, if you want bigger whp then you need to pump more air, the turbo is the pump;) the bigger the turbo the more you flow ,the more you get at expense of lag, but as i said both of the above are well within your limits, the turbo logg mentioned had a 58mm turbine, which is bigger than both of the above i mentioned:cartman: you think my turbo's big ... it will prob push around 450 maybe absolute max 500bhp on my engine, without pushing stupid boost and stupidly high air intake temps, to put things into prospective for you:coffee:
also a certain very high powered c1j , was running the same turbo as mine, probabley with a smaller ar. turbine housing, and lot of other mods and managed 405bhp before hitting the wall so to speak, so in relation, the turbo's ive mentioned are well within your scope, stop ****ing around with everything else on your engine, and change the one thing that has been repeated to you, over and over ,for the past 12 months;):cool::D
No need for the .63/64 rear housing.. Mine only ran a .49 rear and that made good power. ;)
dave, what turbo did you run , and what power did you get?:)
Cheers for that Andy - I thought that the trim was the A/R when I read it LOL. what you're saying makes sense, but if I'm gonna spunk £££ I wasnt to do this by calculation rather than, this should do this and this should do that. I need to get in Ross's also to get some idea of the Laggy nature.Quote:

What power where you getting without Nos D? And what trim etc you got on there?Quote:

any of those two turbos will give you great results, more so than what ross will get out of the unit he is running at present, no slating intended, just facts, the gtx roller unit is going to outflow, out preform an, old skool journal unit, in everyway;)
as dave mentioned , maybe drop the turbine down to a .49 , to help keep lag to a minimum.
as regards to engine, you've got 285 cam and springs/12.9 headbolts, a decent front mount, and free flowing exhaust.... your fine , you need nothing more apart from a decent blower and some boost, and you will get the numbers and more :cool:
forgot to add full stand alone ecu, and fuel injection, fully ported head............yours should be better than most other c1j engines with that little lot in place :laugh::laugh::cool:
and unless your reving to 7500rpm plus , your valve train will be fine also;)
Aka blyton rollers last year and it made 279 at 1.5/6 bar of boost..(perhaps they were out???) should find out soon when Jesus gets it up and running on scoffs rollers..Quote:

thanks dave:)
i wonder if it was the gt28rs;)
I believe it was the same turbo that Stuart Clarke used to run.. Well that's what my friend at turbo dynamics said :D
Hopefully this link works
http://m.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid...hread.php&_rdr
sorry dont do face book, so cant relly make out the detail, but great results :)
im sure your new f7 engine will out preform those results;)
andy will be a drooling mess in the corner, once he gets his pies on those graphs:laugh:
Haha bless him :DQuote:

Wowzzers - not much else I can say really is there.
in fairness andy , i ****ed up the first time and fitted way to smaller unit for my goals aspirations to my swbc, and paid the price litrally:cry:
oli was going to do the same, but after pestering him, and showing him my orginal poor results, it clicked , and he has the makings of powerful f7 also:cool:
Nope... Just stop being a tight arse northerner n get ya wallet out! :laugh:Quote:

Well I was working out what size you need next and I personally think this on your car would make good numbers :laugh:
http://www.precisionturbo.net/Street...PT118-CEA®/329
Be good for around 2000bhp for track days and then you could turn the boost up to make almost 3000bhp for showing off :laugh:
Ok on a more serious note what are your power goals and do you want to future proof it in case you want more :) also do you want to run lower boost levels ie use a bigger turbo and have some lag or do you want to run a higher boost level and still have it very responsive with as small a unit you can get away with :) also what spec turbo do you currently have and I would like compressor size and turbine size I can work all the trims out with that info and it gives us a good base to work from :) plus also we know what turbos work on the c1j we can compare them to what you have :)
Jp continue this hereQuote:

I have everything to get Fluffy back on the road good n proper, about 3 hours work, but I am being dogged by 'other stuff'. I've been trying to squeeze time on it since Thursday last week but don't get the opportunity. I thought I might get on it tonight, but the Mrs Cooper has just spat a wheel bearing FFS, got a carpet being fitted Saturday and I need to finish decorating that room! Just can't catch a break.
Is this just me, or does it seem like the world is against you sometimes.:confused:
It's not just you, saved up a little bit of money and sold some bits and bobs so I could do some work on mine, fence blew down, bye bye money :cry:Quote:

Well there we have it, back on the road again now with no issues. Big thanks to scoff and the lads @ Adaptronic, best customer service I've ever had from them both. The only trouble now, is that I spent most of yesterday out in a 300bhp VX220, and now my 5 feels slow.:sad2:
Bigger turbo, 35 psi and nitrous... ;) lol
At least mini wheel bearings are easy fella, £30 and a 20min job to replace the whole lot unbolts from the hub :-)Quote:

Ah bad times, I've done a couple but must have got lucky by the sounds of it, used a 13mm without even thinking it could have been imperial, a wobble extension helped too as they were nicely tucked behind everything
At least u got it done tho. Back onto fluffy now?
yup - new ecu in and running well, but interestingly enough, I've been looking at a comparable map on my turbo and it looks like I'm well of the scale when it comes to running above 16 psi. assuming I've done my calculations right. I can only run 16psi, anything above that and I'm just pushing hot air in.Quote:

I got 210bhp @ 24psi from this blower, no wonder Scoff couldn't get any more out of it. It looks like the turbo I had custom made for 200bhp did what I asked but outside it's natural limits and inefficiently also.
New style mini? Bottom ball join comes undone really easy pop shaft out gun bolts clean hub pop the new one on, easiest wheel bearing ever. Unless you try and do it with the shaft in situ...... Then it's a hitch :(Quote:

So that's what I've been doing this morning. I set it up for 16 psi and when for a blat.
:) is an understatement - it when very well, not as brutal as 21 psi, but cleaner, more solid and my charge cooler temps are in check now as I'm not simply shoving supper heated air into my engine. So 16 psi, is max for this set-up. I will get another turbo sorted for Fluff, but not this season as I'm too close to events now to be faffing around with her and tbh, I'm happy as she is. Later on this year and after a bit of experiment and hopefully if one or 2 of the members with bigger spec turbo's will take me out on national day and a good bit of chin wagging here and there, I should be able to get the right turbo for my needs.
I'll get some video up later.
:agree: sounds good.
it really was, I'm so suprised at how good 16psi felt.Quote:

Hope that works.
you running a dv on that andy?
check what psi its breaking at, as you might find its loosing you precious boost, some if not all come with low rating psi springs in them, and crack way to early when on it, above 8 psi normaly ;)
yes i know youve got vac line against it 99% of the time but its just a thought , yours maybe fine , i static checked all of mine (6 in total, including the tial 50mm) and all apart from the 2x rubber diaphram forge items and the fse recirc leaked past 14psi, even with springs correctly rated:(, i was well pissed of, as the tial was money too:cry:
i have a vac pump, and I have a compressor - Shouldn't be to difficult. Thanks HandyQuote:

So I've got the middle bit folded in, but it's now too late to cut through the end flanges. Another day perhaps.
Also I've ordered some Yellow stuff pads to see how I get on with those.
BTW moderator - can you move this to projects section please, as it's never going to end.
