Allymk2 18 Posted June 28, 2014 Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 I'm looking for some advice as to which injectors to use with my rotrex charger. Also which oil as the rotrex oil is bloody expensive. Link to post Share on other sites
D11PS 146 Posted June 28, 2014 Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 In regards to injectors, if your running stage 2 Bosch red tops but if your going for high boost bosch green tops 440c Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
craggsy 91 Posted June 28, 2014 Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 You would need the specs of the rotrex oil to buy the right stuff. And rotrex will not give it out, and I don't think its on the bottle either Link to post Share on other sites
Allymk2 18 Posted June 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 Yeah I've got an empty bottle of rotrex oil but the crafty bastards dont put the spec's on it like youd find on any other bottle of oil, just found out you can buy a litre of it from america for $99 WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! robbing bastards Link to post Share on other sites
DrRich 1 Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 From what I understand, it's pretty special stuff and has the property that it 'hardens up' under pressure allowing it to transmit drive inside the blower unit. Normal oil won't do this so can't be used. Don't know if the lubrication properties are different, but this 'mutable' property is the key to our chargers actually working, so you can't do without it... Once it's in, it's supposed to last for tens of thousands of miles (is it 100,000?), so not going to need changing more than once or twice in your engine's lifetime. I got mine from TTS near Silverstone for about £80. Didn't like it, but an unavoidable expense... Link to post Share on other sites
Allymk2 18 Posted July 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 cheers, just a bit frustrating at the cost but that explanation kind of helps, I work in the oil and gas sector in Aberdeen so should have known better, is TTS the only supplier in the UK?Sent from my T100TA using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
