GP82

Looks like it might be a bench/jet turbine setup. Agree'd on a cool Tee idea!

Yeah looks jet turbine setup on bench. Would sound good too because the turbo spins at much higher rpm then it would bolted to engine.

With the right additional ingredients in the recipe, blitz decat being one, this will be a faster setup then td04.

Do you have a close up pic of the turbine wheel?

I recall there being some sort of filter in the EP82, behind the glove box, top left area?! I don't know, i'm not 100% guys.

Nice pictures!

Yes your gasket bore need's to be .5mm bigger then your cylinder block bore so 75mm.

If you want the best for peace of mind get a Denso pump like a Supra TT one. Take into account you will have to modify you fuel pump hanger for it which is not so bad to do.

Sounds awesome, like a jet. Which air intake filter do you run, if you run one?

Valvoline has a good amount of zinc in there. You can also get ZDDP additive. Good protection for high output motor.

Haha some of the figures stated for the CT9 are implausible, ever look at the turbine housing, ported or not, you cannot flow air to make more then 200hp. I ran CT9 hybrid 18 - 19 psi and that was around 170 - 180 real hp. Was quicker then a TD04 running 15psi.

Will it be turbocharged or N/A?

The boost curve will most certainly be different with the external wastegate. Boost will be held more consistantly and closer to if not same as target pressure therefore will be more airflow top end then was before. Best to jus' get checked and small tweak is all that will be required i guess.

I can hear turbo surge on boost?!

I don't think it will, infact i am 90% sure it won't. The way the compressor housing and turbine housing from a Subaru Td04 mate to the chra I don't think will fit. Also You need to check the size of the compressor and turbine wheels, I doubt they are the same size so to fit the housing's from a Subaru turbo onto MHI and vice versa.

A MHI TD04 and Subaru TD04 are very different like trumpets and trombones.

Bump.

I just find it weird that all the cylinders arent just a set diameter.

If you look at the difference in size in each piston, you will see that it's not a big difference, but when your talking precision, it's continents apart.

Think of mass production and the use of and life of the tooling. For cost effectiveness each one is used to it's limits to a set line that it won't go beyond, as the tool degrades so does the precision of the machining before the tool is replaced or refurbished.

The HKS EVC does have setting options for internal and external wastegate setups! If the engine is not mapped I would do as said above, turn boost controller off and jus' run off the wastegate spring pressure if it's safe to do so.

Your right in not seeing one as they don't use a pilot bearing.

I hope the kids fight through to full recovery and health.

Postcode?!

I was use water + water wetter, this stuff makes the water soft and also raises it's boiling point. It seems to keep the temp very consistant at all engine conditions and ambient temps. Toyota red is the best coolant, I use this over the winter.

Price lowered on injectors!

If you want a reliable stock engine you jus' have to get a thicker metal headgasket in there, this will take alot of stress of the con rods, pistons, bearings and fasteners and will take healthy boost pressure too, but good tuning will be required for sure. I'm for response and on the EP82 when i was on hybrid ct9 @ 18 odd psi, it was quicker then a ep91 running 15 psi on a TD04 in all respects.

This problem you are describing is usually related to a pressure plate issue.

Porting the waste passage in the turbine housing can help.
