@V28VX37 There are no oil galleries inside comp cover. if engine rocket cover breathers are plumbed into the induction pipe. remove them and that bit of residue should clear.

For the  1hz cruiser we can high flow your stock turbocharger using G1 profile, its quite response with plenty of torque. It does need water and oil lines, everything else bolt back on with no fabrications.

Thanks Tao, I was wondering about that, makes sense. Yes it's got the standard breather setup plumbed into (Scotty's) induction pipe.
Looks like the engine might be breathing a bit more oil then after the recent head gasket change. Should I be looking at a catch can?

Also if the turbo oil seal was damaged, I'm guessing it would be leaking at the core right (not at the comp cover)? 

The seals are SS C clips, they don't wear unless of a thrust play, means turbo would've failed. The front collars are engineered to throw oil away from the centre shaft and the rear don't, so in case of turbo failures, the rear seal is likely to leak first.

I've just installed a simple catch can setup and I'm still getting a drop of oil collecting at the bottom rear edge of the comp cover, it's really strange. 
I've previously tightened all oil and coolant lines and the turbo core section seems dry as far as I can tell from above and below. I'm still getting good boost, so the turbo is definitely working.

Any other suggestions on what else could be causing a minor leak at the comp cover?

 

Hi guys,

Keen to share my results, hopefully they might help others in choosing their setup.

S1 RB25det, 2013 ATR43SS1PU turbo, stock manifolds, 3" exhaust 100cell cat, megasquirt ECU, splitfires, sard 850cc injectors, DW300 pump, undersized intercooler (high intake temps and around 4psi drop).

Graph shows 98 on gate pressure vs ethanol with a little more boost.

Looking for some feedback on my dyno graph. Is this normal because power and full boost seems to come on really late. Car is r33 gtst s2 manual

Mods:
-Hypergear op6 highflow ball bearing G3 profile.
-power fc
-xspurt 1000cc top feed injectors
-walbro 255lph fuel pump
-blitz return flow intercooler
-full 3 inch exhaust
- apexi pod and solid intake pipe mod
-splitfire coilpacks
- NGK sparkplugs 0.8mm

^ take it to a different tuner, also are you running a cat - if so which cat? plus need more boost

Cant really afford to get another tune. I had a chat to the tuner and he said theres nothing that can be really done and its just a laggy turbo. Im happy with 250rwkw i would just have liked full boost to come on earlier. Im pretty sure its a highflow cat not sure what brand though.

Also the wastegate actuator was set at 18psi. But it was opening up at around 13psi and they had to use a bleed valve to bring the boost up.

I've seen a tune file from said tuner from a car with similar mods. It was horrendous at the very least.

Also your cat is probably restrictive.

FWIW I've been happy with Chasers and Paul's always done a good job with my tune.

Check that cat, my car picked up about 25 rwkw going from X force 'high flow' to a proper Venom 100cell.

Edit: Mine's a 34 with Nistune not PowerFC

What boost controller are you running?

Something is not right, I'm hitting 20psi with the OP6 highflow at 4900, and thats on my RB20 which is 500cc smaller and has no VCT.

With the OP6 High flow, Just check to make sure the actuator is preloaded and shut, leaks and active VCT. Alternatively you can send it back and swap the turbine housing to smaller 21U. The op6 should be making 20psi at 4100RPM on a R33 Rb25det engine and maxing towards 290rwkws.

A decent CAT really make that much difference :O??????? How would that compare to decat?

Where's the best place to pick up one of these venom 100cell cats?

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo
