Well after my 3rd engine build I'm only running 300@hubs but the boost is set to off...(.8 ba...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] 3SGTE Toughened Crank ?!

Would lightening/ knife edging a crank make it more or less likely to fail? On one hand I can imagine removing material might weaken it... But on the other hand...would reducing it's mass, and so it's inertia, reduce the stresses on it at higher rpm? One of my concerns using a 5S crank is the incre...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] 3SGTE Toughened Crank ?!

If you want higher pressure just shim the oil pump. A lot of people think it doesn't make a difference, there used to be a company that made a high flow/volume pump, think it was toga or something. Anyway I shim my pump with a 1mm shim for higher pressure and never have a problem. Graeme Yeah I kno...

For reliabilit...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] GT35R dyno dillema updated with 4th gear Datalogit 8 May

Sounds to me like you need a stronger spring in your wastegate... If it's to week the boost from your bigger turbo will just be pushing the valve open and all the boost being generated will be escaping out of your screamer instead of into your engine... Either that or a bigger wastegate.. 38mm to s...
