Kando Dynamics Turbo

[dori34]

i would assume so as im not questioning his ability to setup the profec B, hes done it before with no issue.

i will post up the settings he has them on tomorrow for thoughts and ideas for me to try

[Hanaldo]

But has it been setup to apply pressure to both sides of the diaphragm? It's unlikely but it's quick and easy to check, could have been overlooked?

[Bsa]

Yeah didn't think about that ebc should be set up to the top port

[dori34]

But has it been setup to apply pressure to both sides of the diaphragm? It's unlikely but it's quick and easy to check, could have been overlooked?

thats how i set it up initially but the tuner said it wasn't needed.

i dont know if he changed it, jez asked me to check this as well.

i will find all out tomorrow.

[Hanaldo]

It's not 'needed' but it will help with boost control. I've got a 7psi spring in my comp-gate40 and hold 18psi dead flat with the wastegate plumbed up like this.

[dori34]

okay i just spoke to my tuner and its getting vac from top port and side port (how i set it up initially)

he says it won't be the spring cause they can generally hold boost when set with a EBC/MBC to double their rated pressure (1 bar spring = 2bar boost on ebc/mbc)

im still gonna try Jez's gate with 20psi spring and see how it goes, if that fails, i will try his profec B 2 unit and hope for the best.

he still believe it has something to do with the mani or turbo as everything else "seems" to be ok, if it does fix the issue with either the above suggestions, i think its time i find a new tuner.

if this does not fix it, then i am at a lost and don't know what to do.

Perhaps the solenoid is stuck open a little? Try blowing through it. I seem to remember you need to swap ports on the solenoid too, to normally open.

I run a 1 bar spring using both wastegate ports, and run 30psi in the midrange but it still drops to 25psi by the top.

[dori34]

hey scott,

yeh i've set the solonoid ports correctly according to the profec B 2 manual.

Dori, how much power did you say you are aiming for on 98? 280ish rwkw?

[rondofj]

Haha..c'mon man, is it around that mark? I'm lookin at going the same turbo on my 34, at the moment have yet to receive my Z32, will order injectors, gate and turbo in the followin months..

[SimonR32]

dont think this would be the case Simon, Blake (BSA) had the same manifold setup (but smaller gate) on his car and it wasn't an issue

what spring are you using in your gate at 1.5 bar ?

1 bar spring with Profec B Spec II doing the rest

[Bsa]

I have a feeling it's the controller

[DVS JEZ]

We will try the controller in the morning when he gets to my place, then the gate if that doesnt work

Actually its sold lol, collected money for it yesterday.

Im confident theres nothing wrong with the disco itself but its a bad match to the high comp motor and the cams are also shit.

I did say you would make the 250-260 mark mate. A nice result, but like weve been discussing theres possibly more in it with another exhaust housing, probably not worth the hassle tho.

How responsive is it on the street?

i haven't really gave it much yet due to the shit rain but on the dyno its coming on boost 200rpm sooner than before

which was 4200rpm 19psi before now 4000rpm 20psi

not sure if its the eflex or cause i preloaded this turbo more where as the old td05 i had barely any preload on the actuator arm when i removed it

ive had 2 of these kandos now and both performed faultlessly and had no problems

first one i had on for 6 months on pump daily driven 1 track day and a few runs down the quarter and when i removed it was still like new these turbos are bang for buck and perform and good quality

ok long story short , i bought another car to use as a track basher , it's a stock 32 pretty much , the turbo is touching the housing so it needs replacing . Digging through my shed i found a couple td05 trust turbo's i had bought a few months ago (td05h 16c in memory , off a gtr ) . Im wondering if this would be worth the effort of fitting up if I'm only aiming for 200rwk , it will be with a kando rear housing and cheap ebay external gate (and the usual mods obviously ) or should i just do the usual and whack a 25 turbo on?

[Bsa]

Might aswell put a kando housing on and crank up the boost

[Simonster]

Changing direction. Not using an RB anymore- going VQ with twin turbo's. Still plan on using a Kando turbo's probably 18g's Sourcing parts now. No set time Some bits coming from the US so months away..

I would do it every day of the week. And when you get bored of the 16g just whack on a kando CHRA.

Heres a shopping list for you champ:

unique automotive

i need a 0.5 or 0.6bar spring to test

after a bit of searching, i dont think the MVR springs work in the older WG44 gate, :\

Dori what springs you using, I think you may have it muddled up

here is the chart I have for my springs...

im running 3 springs in total,one .4bar and two .3bar springs gives me 1bar total

there is no .5 or .6 bar springs on the MVR only on the MVS

I dont think the blue spring is .6bar..that is the pressure of the green/blue combined...

not sure, but now im confuzzled too
