20V CQ Tidy Up

[Error404]

My MD357 is off to TDi on Tuesday for some fettling.
Swapping to the larger .82 hotside so will be same spec as Darren's but will be adding a billet comp wheel too

[andy10v]

That will be rather noice!

Any reason you are upgrading to billet? I know it will be better but the turbo is meant to be brutal as is!

Because more is better, you should know that.

it was cheap as I'm getting the seals replaced and it rebalanced anyway it would have been stupid not to.

Just finished reviewing this thread. Awesome work, started itching buying another Coupe

Looks very nice. What water/oil fittings does it use?

[Error404]

Oil feed is M11 I think, drain is a flange type.
Water are M14 I think need to double check them all.
Going to mount it up on my dummy block and head and start working out the plumbing for it. Going to try and modify / adapt some of the OEM bits to work

If Garrett CHRA then M14x1.5
You can get oem drain line to work. Oil feed, tap the oil filter housing for m12 x 1.5 to 4an male union.

Good info thanks mate
I have a couple spare sets of OEM turbo hoses so I can chop bits off as required to lash something together.

[GazzaG60]

sure its big enough bud?

[Error404]

haha. For me, yes

[rynaqui]

What power are you looking at? That turbo looks sweet and I guess everything is going on the S2 chassis?

[Error404]

I'm not sure, its a mongrel turbo
DJones dyno'd 487 on his MD357 without the billet wheel, but with meth.
Not sure I'll use meth yet, if I do I probably won't map for it. If I can get 450-480 with good response I will be happy.
I think the turbo may do 500 with the right setup. I'll probably set it all up on my coupe and get it all 100% before I build the S2. Need to save up for paint
