A big shout out to Scotty NM35 for all his help and skinned knuckles with the removal and install of my turbo!

New shorter core produced quite a few install issues and problems for Scott along the way. But he endured and I have boost again!

Coupled with a 'Scott Dump Pipe' and actuator mod, there is a definite extra kick.

Thanks so much Scott. Love your work.

No problem Dominic, glad to help. Did you get underneath and check it out?

Not very happy with the way this turbo was installed, too many mods required to make it a feasible option. That said the stock like response felt good for an untuned engine.

You are lucky I waived the bandaid tax, costs could have blown right out. :)

Welcome Dominic

Yeah, I hear Scotty does OK work :)

What turbo did you get?

Cheers, Leon.

Lol ok? There were SOOO many problems Scott had to fix after getting the turbo back.

Someone left the door open again, daym wastlanders...

It was the "stock" sized wheels that Stao just designed, only hassle was the chra was 21mm shorter meaning the compressor housing and everything hanging off it was 21mm further back.

I won't be fitting another one of these.

Sounds like the same issue that Craig had when his 3071 highflow went on.

Pick up yo phonnnneee nigggahh

Exactly, even though I was promised it would fit as he had already sold two of them. It's easy to fit when someone else is doing the work though.

Haven't had a chance to climb under and look as yet... Got home from work in the dark yesterday, then back here this morning in the dark! Things one has to do to pay for repairs to a shagged M35 turbo!

Really impressed by the acceleration. As you said, close to stock. Very linear and coming on from approx 2500rpm with the extra kick.

My original post certainly didn't describe just how much stuffing about you had to do. Word of warning for anyone else going down this path... Speak to Scott and he will say, DON'T, I am sure.

Thanks for waiving the bandaid tax - with the number of cuts suffered, the cost would easily been higher than the value of the car!!

That was a mighty big look of relief in the rear view mirror, when I drove off - clearly happy to see my car disappear!

relief?

hahah he was probably pissed off that he had to start mine

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
