Ryan_EP82 GT Posted December 25, 2014 Posted December 25, 2014 Ill be keepin an eye on this mate looks promising. Im about to start making my own external wastegate manifold and screamer set up for my td04 as well!Where bouts are ya man north or south? Quote
5e colin Posted December 25, 2014 Author Posted December 25, 2014 south mate i have a sc12 sourced just hope i can buy it in time and see if i can get it to work with turbo some research needed ha ha hoping i can switch it on and of with 1 shift light and the bypass valve with another shift light ??? but thats a problem for later first have to get it in my hands Quote
5e colin Posted January 15, 2015 Author Posted January 15, 2015 slow updates on m,y car BUT i just collected the sc12 charger :) happy freaking days first thing to do is make a bracket to se where it can will fit with al the turbo stuff Quote
akyakapotter Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Looking good mate boosted and charged going to be mental. Like the look of those copper gaskets they can't of been cheep though Quote
5e colin Posted January 15, 2015 Author Posted January 15, 2015 thanks going to install the charger and drive solo on it for a month or 2 :) then build a turbo kit around it from scratch either 2x ct9 or 1 big turbo dunno yet Quote
karl. Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Colin, my cousin is building a kit at the minute. I'm not sure which type of charger it is but the way he has it setup is that the gt30 turbo feeds the charger and doesn't turn off or use any valves etc. He's getting roughly 1-2bar by 2k just on a blip of the throttle.Maybe a better way to set it up than using valves, switches etc Quote
5e colin Posted January 15, 2015 Author Posted January 15, 2015 i think charger outlet feeding turbo inlet karl ? sounds promising can you take a quick sneeky pic of his setup when he aint watching :) Quote
karl. Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 No its definitely the turbo feeding the charger. I said to him because I thought it should go the same way as you have said but he said no. No can do im sorry lol he's making up a loom for the ecu now so It should be running properly and mapped some time this year. I'l let you know how his setup goes sure. Quote
AlancEP82 Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Colin your a mad fecr it will be nuts best off luck with it Quote
5e colin Posted January 15, 2015 Author Posted January 15, 2015 cheers amigo going to need it ha ha Quote
Calum122 Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Hang on so you're supercharging your EP? That is way cool! But then going for a turbo?​​I take it it's forged. That's nuts. Would love to see it when all is said and done Quote
5e colin Posted January 15, 2015 Author Posted January 15, 2015 ooooo no callum i would need a lot bigger supercharger to go on a forged motor i am going to see how much boost this 1 will run on the 4e then take it of and set the vf10 to the same psi then get both working together for switch over point and have boost from idle to the glanza v ecu rev limiter in my gtt :) 7500/7600rpm then when thats done get my acis manifold set up again to he he yay Quote
5e colin Posted January 15, 2015 Author Posted January 15, 2015 ok thats 5 months i think i will manage that ( DEPENDING ON THE IRISH FUCKIN RAIN !!!! ) ha ha i work outside in the garden dont have a shed anymore :( so lets hope thee is some dry spells in there :) Quote
_shaun_ Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Be Interested to see how you get on with this compound charging mine has been on my mine for some time but struggle to fine someone to guide me in terms of finding the right charger. The premise of making it all work seems relatively simple Quote
5e colin Posted January 15, 2015 Author Posted January 15, 2015 ha dont worry i will get it working shift light and a digital rpm avtivation switch or 2 will get the valves sorted Quote
_shaun_ Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 My current thinking is to mount it so the pulley is where the power steering pully would be on the same sort of pully the a/c uses ( electrically switched on and off the actualy name escapes me right now) with the charger sitting above the space where the abs module would be run the intake pipe down near the fog light idealy and then I can run the sc's output into my gt28 with a valve in the center to another air filter to by pass the sc Have it spool up up the turbo till its not needed and then have my ecu disengage the sc pully and switch the valve so the turbo isn't having to drag air thought the sc If you didn't have the option on your ecu todo this and wanted a budget way you could get a cheap shift light that doesn't flash and remove the actualy light and replace it with a relay that will switch the pully and valve. That's my thoughts anyway I could be totaly off the mark. Quote
starlet_kid Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 now i had the pfc i needed bigger injectors so i got some from phil a month or so ago for a very good price thanks phillwhat size injectors are these bro? Quote

ro55ifumi Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Nice project Colin looking forward to see how it all comes together John Quote
ste91 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 sure bout that? Yes, it's called compound charging. The turbo feeds the supercharger, so the supercharger is compressing air that has already been compressed, resulting in much higher boost than you'd get normally. You'd need to look up the compressor map for the supercharger and whatever turbo you plan to use if doing it this way though as there's some complicated maths behind it to get it right. Quote
iamlegend Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 nice mine has a charger and turbo and it is lovley to say the least! stock boost is like 1.4 bar LOL.. so used to starlet bar as they can hardly do that on stock engine... Quote

ste91 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Looks quite simple that setup, supercharger blows into turbo until turbo is on boost, then the supercharger is bypassed and the turbo works on it's own just like a standard single turbo setup. Quote
