Zulu Posted February 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 How is it too big? I've got an S cover and it fits. You must be using something like the ATP t3 adapter?As I said, with the modified stock manifold w/ atp adaptor, it did not fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaze1385 Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 HAve been doing some reading on proper oil feed lines lately. My friend just but a bullseye-power borg-warner S362 on his Galant VR-4This thing is huge. Larger than a GT35r. You would think it would be lagggy as heck, but it isnt. Anyway We used a -3 A/N feed line for the turbo. WIth a restrictor inline to limit the max pressure to 40psi max as instructed by bullseye. They have done lots of experimenting with feed lines and have found that by limiting the pressure you can make the turbo spool much, much faster. The ball Bearing stuff comes with a restrictor. There non ballbearing turbos spool just as fast if not faster than any ball bearing turbo. Have even seen somewhere back to back dyno, not changing anything other than max pressure and oil flow to turbo which was an S362 the car picked up 50whp. ANd almost zero lag.Anyway they have some pretty nice stuff and good info.CHad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricF Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 How is it too big? I've got an S cover and it fits. You must be using something like the ATP t3 adapter?You guys, it is the turbine housing that dictates whether you'll hit the mount, *not* the compressor housing.My Garrett Stage 3 turbine housing has the wheel centered much closer to the flange than the SSAC Stage 3 housing I test-fitted. The SSAC had terrible mount interference issues with the smaller compressor housing, whereas I was able to use the big .60 AR T04E compressor housing without hitting the mount using the Garrett housing.If the turbine housing positions the wheels and center cartridge further out and further down as many of them do, you may run into clearance issues regardless of how big or small your compressor housing is.

Definitely compressor housing that was hitting mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHEIII874T5M Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 Ummm, no? Definitely compressor housing that was hitting mount.Did you even read Eric's post? If you did, you'd see that his reasoning behind the compressor housing potentially hitting the mount is due to the wheel's positioning inside the turbine housing.

VolvoFan Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 Nice setup... looks kinda familiar, eh Joseph? By the way, it was my compressor that was interfering with the mount as well -Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TorqueSteer Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Yes I agree with this, on the td05-16g, the turbine housing shape pushes the center cartridge and the compressor housing to the drivers side, therefore the relatively small compressor housing hit the tranny mount.You guys, it is the turbine housing that dictates whether you'll hit the mount, *not* the compressor housing.My Garrett Stage 3 turbine housing has the wheel centered much closer to the flange than the SSAC Stage 3 housing I test-fitted.

bigmay850 Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 It's a 14b from a evo III but im looking at a t04e on ebay for $200 not sure b/c the listing is very vague on the size.not sure which one to get i would rebuild the 14b.Is the maf a gm 3" used for dsm's? that would be easy.im looking at doin ecu upgrade instead but i know safc are good and 550 or 720cc injectors depending on turbo also a 255lph walbroand hose when i get everthing and do it all at once plus intercooler and exhaust if they do 3" if not 2.5" will do.what do u think?

Zulu Posted February 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 FMIC, 3'' turboback, 550cc, 255lph, SAFCII would be nice. Don't know about DSM MAFs, I used a nissan Z32 MAF housing.A to4e for 200 on ebay is gonna be made by a shitty company, unless it states its Garrett, Turbonetics, etc. don't mess with it.

bigmay850 Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 ill just rebuild the 14b an hold off on the other till i can get a gt28 hopefully i can find a place with a 3" bender to domy exhaust! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
