turbo qustions

o an what bout the lines on the back of the motor can i take oaa them off an the ones that come off the bottom of the tb can they b taken off to

[s13drifter88]

I wouldnt use the little filters or delete any of the lines from the valve cover. those are part of the pcv system and need to be drawn back into the intake. blow by thru the pcv system is metered air and needs to remain in the system until consumed and expelled. im pretty sure the large hose in your pic next to the throttle body is for the idle air valve. dont delete it as removing an deleting the idle air will cause the ecu to lose control of its idle adjustment and could cause extremely low rough idle or irritating high idle

[240man91]

ko now what bout all the others lol

[240man91]

o an i got some hinges from a rx7s hood i was thinkn bout maken my hood open backwards any body ever seen this done i was thinkn hood pins to latch but just a thought i have the hinges layn round from on of my ols rx7s

[s13drifter88]

the big one hanging over the fan shroud in ur pic should be for the iacv. the small one next to it should go to the charcoal canister for the evap system. this vents extra pressure from the fuel system. the big one hanging down is part of the pcv system. this vents pressure from blow by in the block to de drawn back into the intake to be burned. u will need an s13 sr20 intercooler set for a ka-t project. it should have a bung for the iacv to connect to coming off the charge pipe (pipe from intercooler to throttlebody). The suction pipe (pipe between the maf and turbo) will need 2 bungs welded on to it. 1 will need to be 5/8 for the pcv hose to attach to it and the other 1/8 for the evap line to connect to it. and of coarse the bov should be placed on the hot pipe (pipe from turbo to intercooler). u can have whoever tunes your ecu to correct air deceleration for off throttle conditions when the bov opens (blow off) to prevent irradic idle when coming to a stop from a hard pull

dam c i got a intercooler kit off ebay i had to costomeise the pipeing sux i thought it was a kit for the 240 but it was one of those for all cars dum s*** an as for ecu it has been tuned an on its way back i have a friend that will weld all the bungs i need tho lol an i think i will just thak off the egr an leave the rest alone lol to much to just get rid of some vacums haha

[240man91]

hey can the line off the valecover plug in b for the maf

[s13drifter88]

no, the air expelled from the valve cover shouldnt enter before the maf. that air has already been metered and will also contaminate the maf. it should go between the maf and turbo

[240man91]

ok i was just thinkn an dose the evap line have to b hooked up or can it just go to the carcole can

[s13drifter88]

the evap line coming from the intake should be a vacuum reference and it should run from the intake to the evap canister

[240man91]

yea it dose but it was ran to my cold air intake to dont know y lol must have been done by peopl that had car b for me haha

[240man91]

ok guys here a hard part, i have a apexi avcr boost controller ok an i was going to set it up today for when i get the ecu back an can not find out how lol i got it wired in an all hooked up just lookn to get the base line set up but when u go to the boost seting on it it dont read in like 1psi an up it is in like 0.00kg/cm2 what is that haha i seen one on you tube an the guy was running 18psi at like 1.75kg/cm2 ok i just wanting to star out at 6psi so i dont know where to set it or where to set my dutiy i have the manule but it just confused the fu**k out me haha lol so idk can any one help!! any one running on or have ran one or new some one that has

[240man91]

ok guys i got the ecu back an car runs good an gos into boost good but it is smoken alot blue

[240man91]

o an at idle it dont really smoke but if u give it gas an it dont take much an it will smoke like crazy an it is only getn 6psi of boost an i was thinkn could it b from the egr it is still in there but not hooked up to exust

[s13drifter88]

im assuming you have a steel braid oil feed line. do you have an oil restrictor in the turbo? if not you need one. for a journal bearing turbo you need a .064" restrictor which you can get from frsport.com for about $12, if you ever move to ball bearing one day make sure you order a .032" restrictor for it. youre smoking sounds like oil leaking around the seals in the turbo. quality name brand turbo's will take this better than knock off's and you might be able to add a restrictor and stop the problem however if you let it go to long it will complterly frag the oil seals and theres nothing you can do to help it. the restrictor will thread into the turbo oil inlet hole and then your oil feed line should thread onto the restrictor. even if the seals are damaged it could rememdy the problem to keep your car from being a smoke machine

[240man91]

ok well i ordered a rebulid kit for the turbo an yea it is just a steelbrader line an i did nit know that an it is a real sr20 turbo not a knock off made by garrett so what one do i need an i will buy it to

[s13drifter88]

.064 oil restrictor from frsport.com click on turbochargers, click on turbo oil and coolant and then get the DIF .064 oil restrictor

[240man91]

ok i got it comming an the rebulid kit just in case i not going to start it any more till i get that patr on it i only had it running for bout 30min like it is in an drove it once

[s13drifter88]

Ok cool. So how'd it run?

[240man91]

it ran ok idle was real good an the come down off boost was good to but it spdder a bit wile on boost but i think that was cause of the oil leaking into the turbo an going in to the motor an the boost controller is not tuned all the way cause i didnt get to drive it much just a mile down road an back an thats not enouf time to get the dutiy set right on the controller lol by this friday i should have the turbo done an my new tires on to. i really liked the pick up when i took off soon as it hit round 3000 rpm an that 6psi kicked in it took off even with the spudder it was faster than b for i caint wait to get it all done

[240man91]

ok update time i got in the oil restrictor in an put it on so now it smokes a tiny bit not badd at all i am going to rebulid the turbo within the next week but here the problem when u drive it an it gose into boost it spudders bad manly in 1st an when going down road if u give it more than half the gas peddle it will spudder any one know what would cause this

[240man91]

any one know or have an idea come on

[s13drifter88]

wheres timing? whats ur plug gap? are you running the z32 maf? Wheres the maf located (should be as far from turbo as possible)? Romtune? Who tuned?
id set timing to about 13*, Plug gap should be .032"/.8mm

[240man91]

i have z32maf on an it is a foot from turbo an emphiny tuned it an yes romtuned an plugs r stock will regap tomarrow an they said that the ecu was plug an play that timing didnt need to b reset

[240man91]

it that 13+or 13-

[s13drifter88]

i would move timing to 13*btdc. that would be + and who's emphiny??? enthalpy or jim wolf are the best

[240man91]

my bad enthalpy ok how do u tell when u r 13+ btdc i just have a timing light

[s13drifter88]

theres marks on the balancer. it has little indentions in it representing timing degrees. in order from left to right, -5*, 0*, +5*, +10*, +15*, +20* . try to get a little past halfway between +10* and +15* .

[240man91]

ok i regaped the plugs to .32 they where at .45 an they r all balck dose this mean rich

[s13drifter88]

it means its not burning all the fuel. could be from being rich or could be from the boost blowing out the flame. id replace them and gap the new plugs .032 and try it again. if theyre black still then you have a rich problem.
