The intake pipe was made up and the blow off valve pipe modified so they will recirculate.

also took the blow of valves out of the car 7EEDBB46-9E19-4D65-BE83-313A2B673C65.thumb.jpeg.278024be8ad2cd7dc115f6f7a8310bcc.jpegand swapped over to a set of bolt on gfb ones 44C33312-2AD2-404B-8120-B20B9981B137.thumb.jpeg.b9165f3b4e7c5ee1fa8396b0777d8731.jpegand then put all the bracket and etc back on so they’re ready to fit back in the car 9A30F535-04FB-4071-BE91-7F0BB3B26888.thumb.jpeg.74220a455b9309a241fb94a6b6a15e63.jpeg

Could have saved money and not run any BOVs, more money for bags and bitches lol.

Also dose is better than whoosh noises, and you're not running a BW, it's  it going to explode with the wrong shaft RPM or a bit of pressure against the compressor when the throttle is shut ?

Also Dose Pipe Sutututu: (note, this is not a BW)

Not sure why I'm not making any boost?20161217_153840.jpg

Overspeeding and compressor surge at high wheel speeds are both things known to break turbos since god knows when - they are why blow off valves exist, and why compressor maps are done with a cut off point which is earlier than where the flow completely chokes.   These phenomenon have been recommended to avoid since they have been breaking turbos since WAY before EFRs existed, and have broken pleeeenty of non-EFRs since well after they were released.   

Telling people that it is only an issue for EFRs is pretty bullshit advice for people you are giving it to, and also a pretty major exaggeration of the fragility of EFRs.

 

Calm down @Lithium you clearly don't get a joke, also that turbine snapped because my motor exploded and put chunks of metal through the motor, not because it was oversped.

It was a joke, same way you and your buddies tell the world Precision turbos are junk and you need 15 oil filters.

There wasn't anything put in there to make it seem like a joke otherwise I would had just lolled.   No worries about my level of calm, I just don't like seeing bad advice being left unquestioned... if it wasn't clear to me as a joke then it may not be to others so had to make it clear that it's very wrong - joke or otherwise.  

I have no idea what that last line is about, but you appear to be confusing me with someone else.  I have opinions and friends have opinions, they sometimes overlap and sometimes they don't - whatever you are talking about there is nothing to do with me.

Nah I don’t really want dose, always like the way the gtr valves sounded 

Picked this up 376983A4-FCDE-4442-83BE-77FC3C7D216C.thumb.jpeg.8ed40213c04622b9d7acd144ca9b456b.jpegit the electric power steering pump out of an astra

and after modifying the bracket to it’ll sit flat I worked out I’m going to sit it about here D0E84407-405D-4B2F-972A-17CBCE20316D.thumb.jpeg.ac6e832d1566dd2fdccbc84041ed7a73.jpeghaven’t mounted it yet just sat it there and went to the fitting shop 

Does that one have a vehicle speed input? At least you won't throw PS belts anymore (if you ever did).

I kept spitting PS belts when the motor was spun close to 8.5k on the limiter at a skidpan. Had to pop it back on twice then ended up lowering thr rev limiter (no fun in that).

No it’s just stays on and I’ll use the factory solenoid on the rack to change the power assistance.

i never had belt throwing issues, it’s just for room and trying to tidy up the bay a little 

Fuark. When I was doing mine I was wondering if I should do it like this or black. I bitched out and went black.

Hurry up and get this fitted so I can hate you even more haha

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
