Transformation of pleasant family car to politically incorrect monster

Very very interesting project, how is the turbo hotside clearance with the Wagner manifold if you don't mind me asking?

[gedu]

Hmm... that seems just thing I need

Mayby put a aftermarket cooler, something like this:

Whoops, just realized that I had that small pic in that link.

Here is a better version:

Says there's an error!

Good I saved it on disk :mischeif:

[gedu]

Got starter motor mounted, boost piping is closed. Something is still wrong, VEMS doesn't see RPM while cranking. Hopefully I haven't broken my rpm sensor.

Chargecooler rad clears bonnet, thankfully Now to figure out how to mount hydraulic system cooler. Fitting it under car is out of question, as I don't want it to be first defense line with ice clumps and such in winter.

[gedu]

WOW... really nice setup!!! the chargecooler rad is a bit big!!! hehe





Says there's an error!

Yeah, it's big, but should fit under the hood. Why? Well, water-to-air cooler always needs radiator, the bigger radiator is, the better intake temps stay in control.

On other news, only startermotor missing it's bolts. Then it's ready for some cranking, first without fuel and spark of course.

Yeah, I have VEMS running the stock turbo+manifold+intercooling, in that flaming smiley in my signature is link to pictures and dyno results

Do you have a larger sized dyno picture of your VEMS + K24 setup please?

[gedu]

Got coolant system back together, only to find waterpump gasket leaking

Oh well, have to scrounge new gasket tomorrow, and get it all back together.

[gedu]

Fuel map I'm going to sort myself, ignition tweaks will be done on dyno.

[Bram]

Your car will fly man. Will you do the VEMS mapping yourself?

[gedu]

Well, today I got mounting bracket for chargecooler fabricated.



tight place that :S



Pic with filter housing off, will take pictures with filterhousing back on, as soon as I get all other bits sorted

[Bram]

Wow, you did some proper work on that hotside. I should have done the same incl. placing my VEMS EGT sensor
