pictures aren't quite big enough, i can't make anything out :(

while you probably already know that open collector + split pulse housing is a bad idea from a gas flow perspective, it's a really super bad idea if your turbo-manifold gasket is split pulse as well. it can break off in the centre section and go through the turbine, not a good thing. make sure you trim it down (cut the divider out) if this is the case. it won't be optimal, but it'll do the job.

cheers

ok.. one thing i really do not like.. that looks to be a splitpulse T3 exhaust housing on the KKR turbo.. however your manifold isnt splitpulse.. i wouldnt reccomend running that :S its allright with splitpulse manifold with normaly exhaust housing.. but otherway around has always been a big no no in my opion and many others i know of with vast amounts of turbo experience

might loose some grunt i supose... guess the exaust gass will take the easy way out and might make it a tad laggier.. guess ill find out

or i could put a divider in there .. but lets face it that aint going to happen due to lazyiness

oh and those cases are for my lub's and makup

:laugh:

Given the work/trouble you're going to, surely a day's down time + 100 bucks (depending) to put in a divider is worth it?

Despite the opinions about these units - and my own Garrett type leanings - I'm going to be interested to see how it goes.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
