Oh ok so what happens if the face is flipped again? Is there anothe valve on the other side?

the face isn't flipped as such

originally LMs look like this

look closely at the picture of how the face is mounted and then look again at the picture i posted previously

originally the face is bolted on top of the lip

when reverse mounted the face sits behind the lip

Knox TMU are playing funny buggers :)

The usual dark green VE commodore.. but with an added twist... banged up toyota echo stirring up people at the traffic lights, then popping a u turn and following the cop car back for another lap when noone bites :)

lol Toyota Echo, you can beat it without even gunning it, there is just no effort there, they need a XR6 Turbo or something

oh i get it .. can you actually reverse the face though??

yeah cleared the defect.. chick who checked it was haaawt

So a drive a Portsea today and my oil temp is this :/

Ambient temp outside was about 27

Just did an oil change of Motul 8100 5w 40 Fully synthetic

Should I be worried? What are the consequences of a really hot oil temp?

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
