I was reading through the thread and was going to weigh in anyway, though looks like you're very much on the page I am reading from - so I'll +1 with with a bit more anecdotal evidence to support it

The ATR28SS15 would be a perfect turbo for your application. I didn't look into some thing even smaller as it doesn't make that much of a difference in response but did loses quite a lot of power. I'

^ lol... maybe I'll use a 3" intake pipe and add in more bends.. that usually gets the suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuutuuututuutut going LOL. Anyhow, some real world facts to back up the results.. errbody likes ti

Hi Guys,

Is it better to run vacuum off the compressor housing to the boost controller or block that off and run it from the stock location in R33s (intercooler pipe?)

My ATR45SAT has it on the compressor housing and a friend with a similar turbo just blocked off his compressor housing one and ran as per above.

Thanks!

Thanks Dan, I read something similar just wanted to double check.

Another question - Does anyone know what size the studs are on the Hypergear ATR45 turbo dump side - I understand that most are actually bolts but there are two studs also.

I'm interested in how much to upgrade SS2 will cost, The new one sounds unreal and mine is due for a retune with E85 and new injectors when I can get all the parts together and on the car so the thought of upgrading turbo sounds good to me :)

the power bug, clearly we both have more than enough power but noooooo let's make more LOL

Haha.

Honestly, mine is probably about perfect for driving around town, which is pretty much all it does.

But now that we have E85 on pump, i know im going to make more power so may as well make a bit more on top of that :)

I just want a little less lag as I track the car quite a bit at Wakefield (which is what I mainly use it for, does see the odd trip to the gym).

I find with the SS2 I need to drop it down to 2nd around certain bends, then bam I have too much torque/power and it's dori & smoke LOL.

However it's tits on the straight at Wakefield, I over take cars like no tomorrow haha.. here's a good clip of just that:

Hey Stao, when you get back just so you don't miss my question but will the SS1PU be more snappy and responsive than the SS2?

Plus more responsive than say the OP6?

yes that should be, and more responsive then a op6 high flow. but will be maxing towards 270rwkws mark.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.

      ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.
