Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Morning had a big night on the car lastnight

Swapped all the belts over and ran all the wiring for sub and lights and stuff

Swapped over the back seats and front seats also fought with some plugs and found the new car has no 2nd o2 sensor so looks like more money on the exhaust

The second sensor in the exhaust is just a cat temperature warning sensor I think. Doesn't really do anything other than give you a dash light if it gets hot.

Pretty much, it lets you know when the cat has no internals left.

It has nothing to do with the ecu so don't worry about it Zac.

Can be an indicator of exhaust temp too high also (obviously). In which case, something isn't quite right.

Also, how goes the new zorst Scotty?

yeah, every vehicle has a unit that uses Iridium sat's to give a constant feed of speed (GPS measured), acceleration, braking etc. You key in with a unique tag each time you start the vehicle so they know who was driving. Main idea is to detect rollovers etc but in reality its mostly used for speeding tracking

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
