as title suggests im thinking of tackling this job myself to save some coin. not shure how involved its gona be and anyone with good mechanical knowledge will be a great help..its going to be a direct bolt on and i have most of the tools and an air compressor so if anyone wants too help :down: ........ beers are on me

can someone give me a time frame to allow for the turbo swap

cheers jippa

Its not a hard job at all mate.

Say 1 hour to get it off, then 2-3 to get it back on. Honestly the hardest bit i found is getting the damn banjo fittings back on for the oil and water lines.

Thats assuming everything is going to come off, to make it easier take the front pipe out with ya instead of trying to take the take off on the car.

I did it in 4 hours with also removing FMIC and cleaning out all the oil from a blown turbo.

edit - mis read first post haha

what was the highflow worth?

it was a swap with jash from c red. swaped my downhill race bike so value of round 1300...

hmmm oil everywhere ay.. :) dont like the sound of that.. will give it a go just got to pick my weekend

I am down like james brown my man. Just gimme a day and time, and if we are both free I am pretty sure I can talk Sean into dropping by as well.

I am always bang up for getting grubby. If you have a lappy I can bring my consult cable and whizz bang new timing light, and we can reset the base timing (including mapping the advance curve :) )and stuff as well.

well hopefully will be geting the turbo on monday so maybe in 2 weekends. will post a week in advance so anyone who wants to come and help can.. :P mesa gettin exa cited :D . thanks for the enthusiastic response dale will be keen for u n shonky to drop round..

    • Alright. Exhaust has been looked at, and booked in 'soon'. I'm not 100% convinced it's going to be as good as possible but I'm going to go with it anyway. If I get a reasonable thing that works for 10 years I mean that's twice as long as I've lived with the current one. I have a more pressing issue. I have fixed my MPVI3 (by buying a new one). Excellently, one can wire in analog 0-5v inputs to the ECU itself. I had wideband already via Serial so I also wired it in via the direct input. The idea being I can use the standalone logging without a laptop and have Wideband data in it. The other wire I thought I'd use oil temp. This is where I've gone crazy. HPTuners requires you to implement a formula so you know how much volts = how much temp. This seems relatively simple to me. However I cannot find the scale for this anywhere on the internet, nor decipher how to figure it out without removing the sensor from the car. All I know is that voltage actually goes up as temperature goes down. I am using the actual gauge, so I can see what the temp is. The signal wire has been branched off into the MPVI3. EXAMPLE: 2.68v = 58C 2.7 = 57C 2.74v = 56C 2.8V = 54C 3.06V = 49C 3.18V = 47C 3.37V = 43C I think the gauge is 50-150C. It may be more. It may be less, because I can't find it for the love of f**k. It appears all the information about the gauges I have has been scoured from the internet, but the sender is VDO 320.021 I believe the resistance chart is this How the f**k do I convert this to a voltage? Once I have a voltage... I then have to perform this transform of said voltage to show it in the scanner: https://www.hptuners.com/help/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm @GTSBoy you're probably my only hope here TEST YOUR MIGHT    
    • Here’s the updated and installed muse replica nismo ones … very happy with the outcome. Eventhough I painted my whole rear end due to my rich idle lol. 
    • Hmm. I had a good look (w/o searching, because I'm not logging in) and couldn't see it either. I distinctly recall the thread, not many weeks ago. It must have been removed or perhaps put into the back section. If it was in Off Topic you should at least have been able to search it up. So if I'm not hallucinating, it is fairly decently removed.
    • I had my car model wrong on my Shannons insurance when i had my V36. didn't make a difference when i claimed a windscreen. Nightcrawler is a negative nancey 🤪
