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.

    • GTSboy, thank you again. i’ve been reading all the other SAU RB25 vacuum line threads and you have the utmost patience for people asking “where do my vacuum lines go”. it’s appreciated. i did also enlist a few other RB guys local to me.  i would like to run 5 to 4. turbo pressure side to wastegate actuator. i would like to run 3 to 1. power steering air valve line to intercooler outlet. (this is how it was previously). i was told 2 is the bleed port for the boost solenoid - which i’m not running - so should be capped.   anyone see any problems with that?    
    • So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.
    • Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?
    • Should have asked what is the car?
    • I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
