Hey all,

 

Anyone here running DBW on an RB26 ITB setup? Going to an ECU that supports this and would love to have it setup and running. The bosch units work excellently however they don't seem to do a 'lever' type unit, only a standard throttle blade type. I know BMW S54 uses a DBW motor with ITB's however haven't seen one personally and would be possible but probably a lot of dicking around. So if i can avoid that and there is any kit or even info on adapting it to suit RB26 that would be great.

 

Cheers

It would be about 3 minutes of a Project Binky episode to build a bracket and crank-linkage to mount the usual suspect so that it could drive the 26 lever.
The BMW S54 actuator is known for being kind of shit. Most people revert back to a cable throttle. Was hoping someone out there had found something similar but better. And yes fabricator could do it no sweat but if someone has designed a mount already it would be easy to just throw that in.
Jump on YouTube and look through the motive dvd workshop videos before last year's Cootamundra. One of the places adapted the bmw setup for rb26
It was Galvsport in WA and there is zero info out there on it.

Call Josh @ galvsport and see if he is interested in doing the same kit for you?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.

      Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.

      Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?

      1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
