lookforjoe Posted October 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Can you feel a difference? Haven't driven it aggressively yet - if there would be any difference, I would expect to feel it under rapid shifts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blkaplan Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Nice! Glad the install went smoothly. You're the first of the 3. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survolvo Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Would those work on a m56 and if so, would they have the same benefit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blkaplan Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Would those work on a m56 and if so, would they have the same benefit? the cables are different. I can make some for the m56 though. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B Mac Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Shift bushing conversion looks good Ben! Hussein, has it lessened the resistance during normal driving? ie: will my chances of finding 5th gear increase :lol: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sconeman Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Installed Kalphenke's M66 heim joint shifter bushings today. Very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookforjoe Posted October 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Hussein, has it lessened the resistance during normal driving? ie: will my chances of finding 5th gear increase I would say it feels a little smoother overall. Don't think it's changed the gate issue, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookforjoe Posted October 11, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Been playing with the Greddy OLED. With controller set for 32% duty cycle (10% gain to compensate for drop off) - I've been seeing 24psi. I was shooting for 20. Tial 44mm EWG 3rd gear 2.2psi @ 3200, 30deg, 25% throttle 4.5psi @ 3500 29deg, 32% throttle 11.2psi @ 4000 26deg, 41% throttle 19.7psi @ 4500 19.5deg, 48% throttle 23.1psi @ 5000 13.5deg, 88% throttle 23.8psi @ 5500 12deg, 100% throttle stable on up from there I had peak of 20psi @ 30%, with drop over the length of any given pull. Finding it difficult to regulate compared to the Apexi AVC-R. I was getting serious boost spikes in 2nd, especially. So, I'm retuning for 24psi increased fueling, elevated WOT settings. Waiting for HD Bosch coil packs & ordered more 0 242 235 749 plugs (Bosch finewire double platinum tip) . Seeing significant sooting under load, but timing is not being pulled & AFR's are not low, so not sure what's going on there. Doesn't feel like blowout, and no CELs Anyone else with experience using the OLED? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookforjoe Posted October 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 A few logs from the past few days - 4th gear pulls, adjusting the 92 & 100% timing & fuel, and WOT settings each time to reduce the lean out around 6,4K - up No space to do a 4-8K pull. About 23psi. 1000cc (3bar) running @ 3.8bar base pretty sure I'm up against the fuel volume issue again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tightmopedman9 Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 No offense, but why are you logging airflow when the number is incorrect? 231 g/s is only 830 Kg/H. I would assume you would be well above 1500 Kg/H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookforjoe Posted October 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 No offense, but why are you logging airflow when the number is incorrect? 231 g/s is only 830 Kg/H. I would assume you would be well above 1500 Kg/H. Because that is the stock cap within the system (231). All I have done is move the operating window higher by using the larger (3" ID) MAF housing. I think you know I have no way (within TT) to alter the ECU parameters to display the actual flow once the standard cap is reached. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fischmama Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Thats quite a drop in fuel pressure.Do you have the dual pump setup running now? Hard to keep up with you sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lookforjoe Posted October 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Thats quite a drop in fuel pressure.Do you have the dual pump setup running now? Hard to keep up with you sometimes. Yeah - no, I don't have the dual pumps/surge tank in place yet. I have to try removing the vacuum line from the FPR that is used to prevent moisture buildup, to see if that makes any difference, however I'm pretty sure I need more volume to maintain pressure up top. I've already gone pretty extreme with the WOT enrichment, so I'm thinking it's the volume that is the problem, as it was a similar condition before I installed the DW300. Until the X1/9 motor is built & back up & running, I can't afford to disable the wagon with anything that could potentially leave me stuck without a car by the end of the day.

lookforjoe Posted October 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Had a seepage issue on the carrier since I put the motor back together after the last valve dropped. Just enough to cause a little dampness after a few K miles. Since I'm revising the turbo drain to use the RNC drain port, I decided to try scrubbing it clean & applying some JB weld to the seam - I'm not dropping the carrier just for this New drain falls just inside of the water pipes, using AN-10 fittings & hose. Have to trim that locater tab on the BG to allow the AN fitting to angle in & down just a little more. Also have to test fit the flange & cut the braid -reinforced hose to length. My last revision on the turbo drain uses the oil pickup tube from -'98, but I made it with the axles & BG in place - I couldn't see the angle of the extension where it drops into the block. You can see that it is cocked - and that also seeps over time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
