SO i need some f**king help, heres how it iz:

bought car after sitting 2 years and forged motor with 20k km on it, blown turbo rear housing (turbo removed & gone), seller lost interest and boought an f6.


came with an f6bb turbo i fitted and made lines n dump etc. I finally started it fine and then found it to be very smokey when revved. I pulled turbo intake off and BAM oil everywhere, took dump off and BAM oil everywhere.
runtime 5 min with 1mm restrictor. I figured well seals are f**ked for oil to get into front and back.
Prev owner said turbo only had 10k km on it and was very surprised & gonna look into it.

So i buy a r33 turbo just to get this car moving & regod and.............BAM same thing again oil in front and rear housing after few min startup and no restrictor and now im furious.....well at the time i was, but the guy gave me his word hed give me money back if it was blown as he didnt use that turbo.

NOW im thinkin do i have that bad a luck where i make 2 turbo setups work and there both f**ked ?? f**k this i should just buy a newby.

WHAT i did notice is with the r33 turbo the car was missfiring and i did notice oil was in cyl 5 from the looks of the head and manifold, so i checked the manifold from the f6 setup and there too was a bit of oil in cyl 5 there too, But surely that cant get into the front turbo housing.

SO WHAT DO YOU THINK ?

a combination of 2 f**ked turbos and oil in cyl 5 like the head gasket is f**ked or what.



SO i got a r34 op6 and made sure it was not f**ked, guy showed pics of upgraded turbo he put on and stocky was taken off in running order with 140k km on it so today i hope to fit it and see what up !!! wish me luck f**kers

Peace

Was the oil in the exhaust manifold?

A bit on cyl 5 mate & im thinkin that cyl was the one not firing, i got plugz n stuff but need to swap plug tool tomoz for superchep.

    • 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
