Marzocchi Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 Hi,The 16G evo 3 turbo is installed and running for the past 2 weeks. Everything went fine until last Friday when a big cloud of white smoke coming out of the exhaust. I thougt it was the head gasket but it was the turbo getting too much oil and a little of oil getting past the turbo ring.I will be installing an oil restrictor in the oil inlet... as soon as I put back the head. Since I was sure it was the head gasket, I decided to remove it. I am doing the timing belt, water pump and a/c compressor at the same time. The head is in my garage, I removed all the valves today and started porting and polishing. This takes a lot of time but the ports are getting very smooth. Combusting chamber is smoothed exhaust will be polished tomorrow. The head rebuilt will have n/a cams and TB.About the 16G, it's a TD05H-16G6. THe exhaust housing is from a DSM. I have an adapter bolted to a japan exhaust manifold and to the turbo. I had to re-clock both housings to get a good angle. I didn't have to shave the transmission mouth to fit the turbo and it's not close to the firewall. It's a little bigger than the stock turbo.I'll try to take a few pics soon. I work 60 hours a week and I work on the car about 1 day/week. If you have questions, let me know.Pierre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorqueSteer Posted June 27, 2007 Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 Nice glad to hear you got it running! Thats interesting about the oil restrictor, ill give a call to Hahn Racecraft about my 16g and see if mine needs one. Did your oil return line bolt on, or did you have to mod it a little like me?What are you using for tuning?And where did you get the Mitsubishi to T3 flange adaptor?

Marzocchi Posted June 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2007 Hi,About the oil return line, I had to cut it at 2 places. Shortened it at the same place as yours and lengthened i at the straight to make up from the spacer+longer exhaust housing. Welded to a flange under the turbo but kept a silicone joint in the straight to make up for little angle errors.I still haven't tuned her. My wideband is not working, (never buy any used wideband sensors) and it's a L1H1 sensor so it's too expensive. I'm going to get a new like a AEM on eBay but I don't have the cash right now. I'm broke. Just paid for plates, insurances, 3" downpipe welded and 2.5" cat-back.I will be tuning her with a Jaycar fuel controller and boost controller. I didn't install the wastegate actuator yet. Creeping to 2 psi lol.I machined the T3 to DSM adapter. It's custom with a pocket under it to fit the Volvo exhaust manifold. I have a thread about it in the showroon.Can't wait to try it at 15 psi.I'd like to get 280whp with the auto at 15 psi with stock intercooler.
