What stage pump are you going to be using? On our race car we run a 4 stage pump which scavenges two from the sump pan and then one from the back of the head. We are still using internal draining, though really the ideal would be to weld up all the oil returns and just let that one scavenge do the returning as that would avoid windage induced from oil draining right into the cranks vacuum trail. Has John considered doing something like that already?

Interested in answer to this...

Here is a detailed Vid on how the merge of the wastegate pipe will be down. You need to listen to it with full volume and listen to what John has to say.

Always wondered about the advantages of something like that, following the direction of the turbine wheel/exhaust gas rotation.

The further this build goes the more impressed I am with the thought going into it.

Inducing swirl and/or taking advantage of it is very common in fluid dynamics and effective. Clever.

I am running a 4 stage pump, and yes the ideal way would be to weld the oil drains up , and we did not weld it however we have used bungs for all exept the ones on each ends of the head.

Ok,

The latest is the merge is getting cut up to form the shape that John had said on the Vid above i should be able to get some more pics on it tomorrow.

The next step is to install all the Motec system i have done some work in installing it, will get some pics up tomorrow. The other thing i am installing is the zeitronix E85 sensor to determine the concentration of Ethanol.

I should also get some pic of the bottom end as this has been completed.

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
