Would the charger run ok mafless before the map? I am going to get a mafles remap and dont want to be messing around extending the wires if theres no need?? Helpfull thread this!
-
Thanks mate thats what I needed, looks easy!!! lol.
-
Hi, Im going to change my inlet manifold to a nice polished one at the weekend. How easy is it to do? Any tips etc? Car is a obd1 if that helps. Thanks.
-
Well I got the grinder out and now they fit very nicely! I was told it would be safe so took the plunge yesterday. Thanks guys. I

Hi all, anyone got these wheels? I recently recieved a set.. They are 8x17 et32 however they dont clear the front calipers, any ideas? I have seen people running these wheels before. Here is a pic of one fitted to a vr6, I think hes on this forum but im not sure what his username is. Thanks.
-
Trust me dude the ramps round here are like mountains! lol. I used to run coils before and they couldnt get the car on the ramp or the thingy that goes over the wheels when tracking on, sorry not sure what they are called. I shoudnt see why dropping it would mess the tracking but what about camber etc?
-
I am going to fit some coilovers to my vr next week, If I fit them and set them high then get the tacking done so it gets on off the ramp etc and then drop them right down will the tracking be upset in anyway?
-
Thanks mate, So if I used a sytec fuel pump with 440cc injectors would I need anything else for the fueling side? Like a fuel pressure regulator etc? Would the car run with them fitted to say drive to stealth for a map? Also is it essential to use a crankcase breather catch can etc or will the satndard stuff be ok? Sorry for all the q's!! You guys are real halpfull :-)
-
I know, I didnt think about all the small parts when this project started! What kind of fuelpump would be best for my turbo? I will eventually be running abou 15psi. Or do you think I would be best leaving the standard one in during the testing phase? I will start on 8psi then turn it up.
-
Im in on this one!
-
Thanks mate, what company is best for shipping? I noticed you buy alot of things from over the pond! Im now in the stage of fueling. Do I need to upgrade fuel pumps etc? I plan on running it with 440cc injectors.
-
Hey! Im going to turbo the vr in the new year, I plan on moving the battery to the boot to make space for the i/c piping. Whats the best way to do this? Also would the standard battery be ok in the spare wheel well? Stuart.
-
Thanks mate, I emailed kinetic about shipping the whole kit when I was going to get that, they said they would ship worldwide! They wanted $500 for shipping mind you. I will go for the .63 as its going to be a daily driver and I think too much lag would drive me insane! So aquamist isnt essential? Do you run it on yours? Stuart.
-
Just had a quick google.. 1 bar = about 15psi? Yes? Sorry im still learning lol. Stuart.
-
1 bar? Whats that? lol. Im going to try and do this as cheap as possible, Where is the best place to get a garrett turbo in the uk? I found this... http://www.kineticmotorsport.com/products/Garrett_T3_T4_57_Trim-283-86.html But its in the us. Would you recomend running aquamist or coolingmist on this turbo? Thanks, Stuart.

Thanks mate, Well im getting there now! Im hopefuly going to start getting the bits together over xmas then fit it etc ready for the spring. So I want around 300-350bhp, What kind of psi would I need to run to achieve this? Also how is the boost adjusted? So far as bits go this is what I have so far.. -RHD manifold. -Custom pipework fmic etc that I will try and do myself with the help of some friends. -Bigger injectors, what would you recomend for the power I want? -ARP rod and head bolts. -Spacer Gasket. -Tial Wastegate. -A recirculating bov. -A turbo, Again what would you recomend? I dont w

Thanks guys!! Looks like I will keep the maf then. A couple more q's now folks, How do you go about making the downpipe fit the standard system? Say if I used a 3" downpipe then joined it on to the de cat/cat for mot surely that would mean reducing from 3" down to 2.25"? Think thats the standard bore sive of the vr, please correct me if im wrong! Or would having a custom exhaust made up with a 3" bore be a better option? But then what to do about mot and cats etc...? Stuart.
-
Im considering the different options available.. I heard that some people without the maf on a sc car get better performance, Is that the case with a turbo? Sorry for all the q's btw lol.
-
Thanks, So if I was to choose a mafless setup it is possible to get a custom map for it?
-
Right then folks I think i know the basics now. Is it possible to run the air filter to the compressor without the maf etc? If I did this then got vince at stealth to do me a custom map would that work? If the car doesnt have a maf then a normal bov would work yeh? Also my car is a 1995 obd1 if that helps.. Stu.
-
Thanks, im starting to see light at the end of the tunnel now, Is it possible to run a mafless setup as some charged boys do? Also what is a Wideband kit? Does this have something to with airflow? Its about now when a faq thread is needed! lol. Also any pics of a completed turbo uk vr6 engine bay? Stuart.
-
Thanks for all the help tom! You realy do know your turbo stuff. I will have a look around and see what I can find. Just a couple of quick questions.. That kit doesnt include a bov, if I wanted one are they easy to fit? Also what is the diifrence between a wastegate and bov? You can tell I really am not engine friendly lol. Also what kind of psi would be safe to run before lowering the compresion? Or would you sugest doing that anyway? Regards, Stuart.
-
So your saying rather than getting them to price up the parts that I would need just buy all parts seperately? Any uk companys that can supply the parts I would need? Also do you know if vince at stealth is able nto map a turbo? Stuart.
-
Cheers for the replys guys, This is what the kit consists of.. - Rotomaster (Kinetic Motorsport Custom Spec) T3/T4 Oil Cooled Turbocharger (500hp Capable) - Kinetic Motorsport VR6 Manifold - TiAL 38mm Wastegate - 2.5" Stainless Steel Downpipe - 3" Stainless Steel Intake - Braided Oil Lines and Oil Pan with fittings - Reuseable Air Filter - Kinetic Motorsport Silicone Hoses and Stainless Steel Clamps - 36# Injectors - C2 Motorsports Chip Software - This kit runs 6psi of boost What wouldnt I need? I know I would need the manifold or downpipe. That is the stage 1 kit by the way! I will then emai
-
Thanks mate, Sounds like its going to be more costly that way.. You know of any people selling rhd manifolds? Price would also be good. I dont know much about engines and after looking at that thread feel well out of my depth! I could do with a list of parts I would need then I could buy them etc before asking someone to fit it.
