Hey guy just have a quick question and need some help cause dont no wats wrong.

i purchased a hypergear PU turbo and installed all perfect no problems.

the problem im having is when i hit boost it just doesnt make any suction or turbo sound and if it does its really low and flutter or even my bov thats plumed back doest have the release sound and im hitting like 4 psi.

With my stock turbo i had before installed which is a S1 turbo it had suction turbo sound and flutter and release pressure of my bov and it was plumped.

i thought it might be the lag abit on it thats why it needs to hit more RPM but still nothing just a faint lil sound but my stock turbo sounded crazy :).

ive got alloy intake pipe not the stock rubber one.

Any help would be great cause cant take it to hypergear a lil to far at the moment to get there so just thought id ask here if anyone had come across anything similar.

Just getting checked now on dyno,was thinking big boost leak aswell.....had tryed the preload 2/3mm but still nothing last night still hit boost like 4 psi but not thrashing and that normal..,i checked everything in oil feed line which oil was coming out as ussually turbo spins freely and great and minimal shaftplay...has to be big boost leak for sure cant think of anything else.

      My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
