Hey guys,

as the topic suggests, just lookin for some photos/ideas from people that have already used a Full Race twin scroll manifold (im using a borg warner 83/75 single turbo)

Particularly in reguards to the air intake, compressor/pressure side plumbing and power steering reservoir location

Cheers

Joe

Where does your manifold locate the front wastegate? There seem to be a number of iterations. I don't have p/s but intake side plumbing is the easy part - plumbing up the two gates etc looks to be the challenge (a challenge to do neatly that is).

as u can see the front waste gate is a pain in the arse lol

was also goin to run AFM's but it will be a difficult fit Y pipe/afm/ and filters with the turbo facing to the right

So the only option i can see atm is to run a D-jetro.. and good luck to the block whos doin the pluming for the wastegates :whistling:

TURBO IN!.zip

that should be a given, running a map sensor ecu.. btw awsome choice. need to get more bw data over here. im in the process of putting a 9179 on my gf rb25.. on a 6 boost. twin wg.= better but a pain in the ass to set up.

pic of turbon old manifold.

looks awsome mate... thats one fine lookin engine bay!! i may have to do something similar with my power steering reservoir

i have seen single set ups running AFMs, but didnt realise the dramas i was goin to have with the manifold pointing the turbo that way.

will be very interesting to see how the turbo performs in reguards to response with the twin scroll .. and yes get some data goin

went in pretty good. wastegates are a pain. ps.. make sure you check what springs are in them. i orderd mine with 0.7bar springs.

i pulled them apart, one had 0.9bar springs and the other had 4 springs in it... almost took my head off when i poped the top off...

9179 on 6 boost, 3.5" exhaust. twin tial mvr44, spooling at 3k. straight to limiter by 4500-5k throwing p/s belts of... sounds awsome.

got the wastegates with no springs in them so didnt have an issue with that, but yeah there is a fark load of spring pressure in them haha

had to use 3 springs to get the 1 bar setting though

pretty handy how both ur wastegates are together, i have one facing the front which could prove interesting

how much power u making mate? u reckon the twinscroll makes a difference as appose to single?

    • Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.
    • I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.
    • I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.
    • From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.
    • They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
