Hi there.

A week ago I was to a car meeting... Gave it some ass in first, burning rubber, then drove forward, I should park, the engine died, fired it up right away. Died 5 - 10 secs after it was punched, and was started within 2 secs again.

Ran 20 psi boost.

Could my GT3076r turbo, with same size oil restrictor as from ATP, have taken any damage?

Also today, was driving slow, clutched in and engine stalled. released clutch within a second so fired ud again, could any damage have taken place?

I hope not... There isnt any smoke, or missounds or anything.

Hmm.. But could there be any turbo damage??? That is my question, i know my valve have issues... Im experimenting with it... Making different types of pistons inside, different clearances and so on.

The only thing im concerned with is turbo damage because of no oil pressure when engine died, in those two situations as described in my first post..

Know its not ideal... But it need very little oil to get lubricated.. Hole in oil restrictor is only 0.85mm, as per ATP turbo, oil in to my turbo is faily high.

I mean, it has around 8cm different fittings straight up from, oil in, on turbo. Both to clear the housing, and to get from one size thread to the steel braided hose I use.

So in that 8cm pipe, from turbo oil inlet straight up, 90 bend and then my steel braided hose, there will be oil still lubricating the turbo when engine is turned of.. There is about 30 ml oil in the pipe, it cant run back to engine, only way is through turbo... So im trying to calm myself saying there is no damage to turbo, has just replaced the turbo, blew the old one with too much oil pressuere, and is under education, so dont have money. hehe. So basicly I want to be calm'ed.

Good son of rajab, i thought my swedish/english was bad... :nyaanyaa:

What ever your trying to say, i doubt your $2000 GT3076r has taken damage. It would be a "sensory input to your ECU" issue me thinks. Check that nizzle out. You haven't told us bout the basics, so widdle the branch and let us know

Just because your engine was off few a few seconds I don't think the turbo would've suffered any damage. I'd say damage would occur after heavy use (like the skid you pulled) then turning off and leaving the car turned off for extended period. It would be more from when the turbo has stopped spinning and it becomes unevenly heated without the oil to help disperse the heat. It's not going to stop spinning after a couple seconds of engine off though.

there there little buddy, everything is going to be fine *pat on the back* you know when ever i think something its wrong with my car i put on my happy shoes and dance like Napoleon Dynomight. and if that doesnt do it for you, then u might take comfort in the previous posts have all said things like "I don't think the turbo would've suffered any damage" "i doubt your $2000 GT3076r has taken damage" "i doubt the turbo has sustained any real damage" and "wouldn't be a turbo issue"?

do you feel better? *hugs*

AiF

P.S. it feels a little to me like you want someone to say your turbo is shagged.

That helped alot. :laugh: Needed to be calmed... I get really nerveus about my car.

Trust me, I dont want to hear its buggered.. Skipped my summer vacation to afford this turbo... So no no no, dont want it to be shagged, buggered, busted, damaged or anything. I'm under education, so dont have alot of money....

Want it to be in super mint condition. :D

.....

I wish for a money tree for christmas.

LMAO at the number of people trying sort out the stalling issue.

ALL he wanted to know was.

Will the car being off for 2 seconds before being turned back on, cause any damage to the turbo since he had just done a lebo wedding move.

he knows the stalling issue is his "experimental" atmo venting bov.

he was asking if the turbo could be damaged by the 2 seconds the car was off immediately after a burnout.

at least some people go that.

      My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
