look i dont go that way jez, but any customer with a big head is only going to hurt on the way in.

thats what i tell my girlfriend anyway.

Not to be rude but um... you just said said your GF has customers with big heads that hurt on the way in....

I realised after I posted that I left myself somewhat vulnerable there lol

Good pick up.

well it finally started but I could only find a crappy peice of tube to connect for the Idle valve and it kept kinking so it would barely idle. But other than that about friggen time.

Nice work! :woot:

Did you use the tie wire with that beanie, or just left it sitting there?

I dont know if anyone can answer this but will this (see link to what i have bought)

Work with my turbo like this (has the V band in the middle not with the bolts)

This is a hard one to describe, but im confident its the right housing.

if you think about it, just coz the CHRA can be v banded, it doesnt mean you cant machine a bolt on housing to press up to the CHRA and work.

im pretty sure the kando CHRA's are direct copies of the MHI items, and many of the housings are direct copies of the MHI housings also. Yet these T3 10cm housings are definitely custom, and im sure it is them that is different to a normal housing and are machined to have the v band chra slot in and then have a bolt on piece press it in.

Simple logic to me!

I used a spring on the dump side of the turbo. The other side was awkward to get to the clips and I just wanted to know if the bastard would start lol.

Urt. Did u wrap the entire manifold or jus cyl 1&6?

Hey Jez, nah I did about 2/3 of the manifold, the whole Ext gate dump and about half of the turbo dump. I had to remove a bit on the manifold to get the nuts onto the studs onto the flange, I might fix it later but at the sec I just wanted to know if it would start.

I reckon I did alright for a "pen pusher" with soft paper handling hands as my mates would call me.

Good point. Only way to find out is take if off and inspect.

I took the POS for it's maiden voyage. and all I have to say HOLY S**T BALLS. These turbo's sound like jet engines with the surge slots and wow I didn't expect it to have masses more bottom end then my old turbo esp when it's bigger. MUST GET TUNE ASAP!!!!!

Awesome!! Can't wait to see the results of a tune, but glad you are happy with it... Love the spool sound, haven't heard a Kando yet but can't wait too :D

Thats sick man! I like that TD07 front cover, Im of the opinion a larger front cover can be a really good thing on a turbo that size/spec.

Looking forward to your results :)

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
