Thread For My Car Problems.

[Crans]

Steven can you please post up details of your other issues and what was done to fix them? Nice big thread like this should provide good reference to other users if all details are given

[lilcrash]

Il post up a new thread with all the issues I had since the hypergear installation and what I did to fix them

Edit, il post it in here first and if there is a problem with what I say I can fix it before I create a reference thread.

Cool look forward to reading it all

Problems/issues installing a hypergear atr43ss-1 turbo.

1. Fouls on heat sheild on manifold - cut piece out to clear housing, dint the heat shield or use 10mm flange spacer.

2. Rear housing is 20mm longer - move all exhaust mounts forward 20mm

3. Water lines don't line up - get custom made lines

4. Oil drain on awkward angle - custom made oil drain

5. No boost reference nipple in turbo - weld on into one of your custom pipes

6. Needs custom intake - make custom intake

[lilcrash]

Back to the oil problem, my turbo is now full of oil and my sump is missing a liter of oil. Surge tank = poo

[lilcrash]

HEADGASKET. who is in favor of that being my problem?

[lilcrash]

On a plus side, installed the 7psi actuator and it's got a pretty solid 14psi now. Il keep turning it up but for now it's got that.

[DVS JEZ]

I doubt its the headgasket. Do a comp and leakdown test. U have been running 25psi. I would be a little concerned whether the tune was safe for that amount of boost. May be alright.

Clean all cooler pipes and catch can etc. Try running with catch can not connected to the turbo intake pipe. Run it into another can or bottle etc and monitor whther its still spewing out oil

[lilcrash]

I'm doing a comp test tonight, if it isn't head gasket i think it's deffinately rings. I clean up all I could reach, and have now swapped the intakes over until I can resolve this oil issue. I was steadily accelerating holding the throttle at 18/20psi when I started to smell the oil again. It only hit 25 psi 3/4times I don't feel it's safe at that level.

[lilcrash]

Ok turns out my engine is just rooted.

91,167,167,168,167,167. That was engine still hot, many burns on my fingers , poured oil into cyl 1 and it came up to 130psi. So yeah head gasket?

[mico]

Air shouldn't be going past the piston rings..

You've Got some serious issues.

And when runnin that my boost, why the hell aren't you running a proper electronic boost controller?

Skimping on one of the most critical parts?

[Crans]

Nah not head gaskit ring/melted pison. If it come up the same with oil in the cylinder then it would be a valve problem.

Considering your loss of oil, id say engine out.

[lilcrash]

thats not what i wanted to hear :(:(:(:(:(

[The Mafia]

Can't be a head gasket if oil brought the compression up that much from 90psi.

I'd say that cylinder is about to grenade so I wouldn't even start the car anymore.

And if this is a standard engine, why the hell are you running 25psi of boost?

[lilcrash]

I wasn't intentionally running 25psi, I will pull the head off when I get a chance, what exactly am I looking for if it's not the head gasket?

[chocco]

Seriously...

Are you getting paid to troll? Cause the more you reply you just add more and more f**kin

stupid comments...

First it was the tune, then the actuator, oil blowing out the ass end, headgasket...

Wats next? The chain slips on the sprocket? or it wont go into lo 4x4?

Take the f**kin thing to a mech and get them to solve it cause clearly you cant even let

alone describe your problems.

[lilcrash]

Once again you come in with nothing useful to say.

[lilcrash]

And the oil spraying could be because of the current problem could it not?

Boost issue still isn't completely resolved but clearly something has gone wrong somewhere. And as for the tune well that has absolutely nothing to do with me.

[GTScotT]

Yeah your oil problem could be as dramatic as it is because of Cyl 1.

Sounds like a cooked piston fr those symptoms (busted ring lands, crown) and that would let combustion pressure into the oil system.

Well there you have it. Get a 2nd hand motor and fix it. Consider taking it to a mechanic.

[lilcrash]

So my options are down to buy another motor or forge the motor I have??
