dave_424 48 Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 On my GT35R, I used a banjo bolt on the oil filter housing and another banjo going into the top of the turbo with no restrictor. But I expect that running though the multiple orifices in the two banjo bolts has reduced the pressure a bit. Best bet would be to phone Owen Developments, telling them that the VR6 can have 100psi oil pressure when cold. Link to post Share on other sites
JakeP 53 Posted November 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 My phone has not been working for about a month so havent been able to post anything but will when my phone is repaired. Right now the engine is in the car and is really coming along, lots of little bits need to be done but will take time, my Eibach anti roll bars were meant to arrive on the 21st after I ordered them 2 months ago but its still being delayed until mid december which is frustrating after it was originally meant to arrive on the 21st of october, I need a few bits of information from people who have done turbo conversions , are the lines on the Throttle body need to be connected to any water lines or can I just cut them for easier fitment with the fan shroud?

Neil20vtc 44 Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 I don't have anything connected to the water ports on the throttle body and my car was running fine, I think it only needs to be water cooled when it's in its original position as it sits above the exhaust manifold Link to post Share on other sites

VR6 Supercharged 104 Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Looking good for sure. Quick question, where did you get the arch spats/trims from? I like them a lot, been looking for some for my VR, only place I can find is in the US (Optikworx I think they're called) Would love some of those you have, as I like different...
