Bildo Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 so whats your views on the tubby then>? whats she boosting too, , , spill the beans man!Haha, that's the interesting part bud.Basically all the pipes connected brilliantly to the WEPR piping however the part that goes to the HDi one went on far too easily and I knew I had an issue. I did the clamps I had with it up as tight as possible but as soon as I went on boost for the first time I got to .5 bar and it popped off, so I tried to make it a bit tigher but I went on boost and it came off again. I ran off boost for the rest of my journey.Tomorrow I'll be putting a smaller clamp on, roughing up the edges of the hose and the piping to hopefully make it not slide off so easily.Sorry not to be able to give you a positive answer there man, nothing to do with the turbo at all though. Will let you know as soon as my niggly issues are resolved! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Enzo Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 get a big pile of jubely clips on there, ive got three minimum on each connection Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bildo Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 get a big pile of jubely clips on there, ive got three minimum on each connection3? Blimey lol.I'm using Mikalor clamps which are a lot thicker and stronger, the only issue was that where it seems to tighten them all perfectly it was just the HDi one where both ends were touching and it couldn't be tightened anymore. It was down to the clip being too big I'm sure so I've got a smaller one to put on.I'll then run it and see how that goes, worst case scenario I might add another clip onto it mate, thanks for the advice. Don't really want them popping off all the time, it's annoying having to try and fix it on the roadside! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bildo Posted August 8, 2009 Author Share Posted August 8, 2009 Had a awesome hangover today but I had some help with working on the car so I spent most of the morning laying on my driveway pretending to help out. Anyway, took the HDI hot pipe off and took a dremel to it to roughen the edges up so that it sticks inside the hose better and doesn't pop off as easily as it did. I then put a smaller t-bolt clamp on the end of it and put 3 clips on in total.Went for a drive to see if I could get any boost as it hadn't yet been boosting properly. Put my foot down after letting it warm up and BOOOST! I was chuffed, sat there grinning away to myself.Still needs some tweaking which I'm hoping to work on tomorrow sometime, need to set the actuator to stop going mental and tell the Blitz DSBC how I want it to run.All in all a successful day, not had the pipe pop off at all yet and I ran it all the way to .9 bar so hopefully, fingers crossed it's all sorted! Great to be back on boost again, and delighted with the extra pull that the mods have supplied.Happy days! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WallaceGlanza Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Looks great mate, glad you're getting it all sorted, take it easy with the high boost until you have the fuelling sorted though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bildo Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 Looks great mate, glad you're getting it all sorted, take it easy with the high boost until you have the fuelling sorted though. Sure am mate, running it at .6 generally and not gone above .7 yet, (Apart from once, and that was an accident!)It's running fantastically at the moment, absolutely delighted with the improvements I've got from the bits fitted, the hybrid especially has so much more pull all the way through the revs.Highly recommended!

ecksjay Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 i'll tune the shit out of that dsbc for you at jae mate, providing it's mapped. have spent many years tuning them pro as you know, so we'll get the best out of it we can ^^; Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Still have to get a decent clutch before that and I've had a shit month financially. We'll see how it goes though, might end up happening a few days before if it happens.There'll be other opportunities some other time if not I'm sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ecksjay Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 get it done you chud. i'll destroy it mate. like, ruin it with so much epic boost.i'll hold my reserves on the tonka toy turbo, but we'll see what we can get it to do anyway - the performance isn't usually in question, just the longevity.if worst comes to worst, we'll slap on the Greddy T518Z i have sat in a box and give you 400bhp. be fine yes.

Nanglebadger Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 "be fine yes" PMSL!!!!! im gunna use that line, its so simple yet i'm giggling like hell because i can just picture Harrison saying that in person whilst turning Bill's car into a 400bhp monster as if its nothing lol!!!Phil.
