Messed Up Cliff Diving Video
bucketep91 replied to laurenceharding's topic in Not Work Safe - The Naughty Corner!
now that gives a whole new meaning to a splitting sore head haha -
where does all the money go? why is it keeping the site alive and what does the money do for the people who use the site except give them little things they dont really need? EDIT - i didnt get this email? i use tggt almost as often as uksc but prefer it over here, im not saying what they are doing is wrong or right because i have no idea what the running of a forum is like, but if people do pay it then they will keep asking for more
-
it made you cringe? i almost cried lol, dont worry i wont be using anymore mesh but it was my only option to get it on the road. jezza yeah i have a magnetic sump plug, there was nothing in the pipework though i had the core off and gave it a good shake and clean and there is a wee bit oil in the pipes and theres no metal in that. i dont even know for sure if its went through but something isnt right the way its dropping off boost and screeching oh and it was just very fine stainless steel mesh
-
the turbo manifolds have a turbo flange at the bottom so that wouldnt fit, there are some options availible but expect to pay for little gain
-
i know mate i got lucky , then i got stupid lol then it died lol i wouldnt know where to start by taking it apart, as i said though I've looked at the compressor wheel and it seems fine but there is still a whining noise and it boosts fine to start with then tails off, i dont know if just a little of the mesh went in or the whole lot, im guessing the majority of it would go through the intercooler pipes and not out of the exhaust?
-
eeeew i dont like any of it, but ohh my god!! that back bumper has got to be 1 of the worst I've ever seen lol
-
i put it on with a jubilee clip really tight i double checked it againg and again before driving and it was solid but then i had a look and it was gone, but it was fine, no drop in performance whatso ever, then it started making a kind of squeeling noise on boost. I've had a mirror and torch down there and the compressor wheel looks fine tbh step91 - i had no other option mate my relocation kit didnt fit because my i/c pipe route so it was either mesh it or leave it open, i was weary of meshing it in the first place. im not too fussed ust gutted really but it was good while it lasted haha. ill whack the ct9 back on and see if i can find anywhere that can fix the hybrid, any suggestions?
-
BAD NEWS GUYS. looks like the hybrid did suck the mesh through it and its not boosting properley and squeeling badly, I've had the intercooler and pipes off to clean it but found nothing, but its f*cked already lol 1 day it lasted, oh well it was fun while it lasted haha thats a harsh lesson learned for me, ill never mesh a turbo again
-
you have a shorter rad than me though:> lol i had the turbo meshed but the mesh has came off with the jubilee:-S i hope its not went into the turbo. doubt it though because it still feels fine and i ut a mirror and torch down to the compressor wheel and it looks fine
-
aye mate, you want it back lol ill swap you haha. aye the power hike is awsome, just need to get this fpr and fcd set up lol cant wait til the weekend

of course mate most do it, yoiu just wont get as good a result as if you were using some sort of managment as you wont get as an aggressive map. but yeah it will be fine and safe to run provided you have it set up properly

Just Fitted Hybrid And Not Boosting Properly
bucketep91 replied to bucketep91's topic in Intake, Turbo & Exhaust
the only 1 that goes into the efi pipe, i had that blocked but I've unlbocked it and still no difference. by the way mcbeal your inbox is full i tried to send you a pm back last night -
ok so I've just fitted my hybrid and im only hitting 0.5 bar where as before it was sitting nicley at .85. I've been fidling witht he hks actuator but nothing is changing and all my intercooler pipe work is tight with no leaks, I've had to remove the efi pipe and my hotside intercooler pipe doesnt allow any space to re route my air filter, so the turbo is meshed for now. could it be the boost hose from the efi pipe? I've just blocked that up or anything else?
-
yours will have had oil in it anyway bud so itll be fine, aye av had it out but am not getting over 0.5 bar, although it does feel more powerful than the .85 bar on the standard turbo, I've been fucking around with the hks actuator but its not changing anything lol. I've got the hotside pipe from your intercooler lol i baught it from greame, i cant rote my airfilter past it its a nightmare so the turbos meshed just now till i can sort something out
-
right! the hybrid is on . I've not started it up yet just wanna confirm summin, to prime the turbo do i just take out the efi fuse and crank it a few times?
-
cheers for the replys guys i didnt think it was a gt spec, just wanted to see if anyone knew, i cant complain anyway lol i got it for a very good price and it seems to be in great condition, its going on today I've just taken the front bumper off and got the car on stands im just letting it cool down then im going out to set about it:D then hopefully this weekend get my fpr and fcd set up:D cant wait!!!!!
-
