RX4 BridgePort Turbo

[TRIND-FD]

No mate, not had time, . Need to get my ass into gear.  Couple of things to sort out and boom, get it in and mapped

Charge cooler looks nice .  Top work on the welding.:Thumbs-up

[Grant Monkhouse]

Cheers Keith. My mate will be doing the rest of the welding so should look awesome, if I did the welding it would just look like pidgeon :censored::censored::censored::censored:.

The charge cooler looks good but it is huge! Trying to think of better way to support it but currently not having any luck

It\'s taking shape nicely now . Nearly there .

[Grant Monkhouse]

Yes it\'s nearly there but once the engine bay is complete it\'s coming out again to paint the engine mount and reinforce it a little.

Not much going on but iv been selling things and buyings to get the bits I want for the car and do things right the first time, I hope.

Sold my dataloggit, twin power, igniter, coils and ecu. Bought a Haltech e11v2 from Steve. This thing does so much more than the apexi and allows me to know the ins and outs of every part of my wiring. Also allows me to run 4 seperate coils and up to 8 injectors. I bought 4 x AEM smart coils, picked up an under drive kit from Carl

As soon as possible. Only thing that I need to get it moving is time, and I don\'t have much spare time due to working. It will be running for rotorstock next year as me and Steve are going to be fighting to take best old skool off Clive. Although I will blasting down the strip all day whilst Steve takes the attention in the stand.

This needs to run!  And soon!

Got something welded

Bit of a pain as one piece is 2mm the other is 1mm. Luckily all the rest of the pieces are 2mm.

[Brett]

1mm?  That seems really thin... is this on the pressure side?

[Grant Monkhouse]

Yes just off the turbo, I think it will be fine, it may be 1.2mm. I\'m not going to be running huge pressure........ At the start, if it buckles, which it won\'t, I will change it

[Grant Monkhouse]

1mm?  That seems really thin... is this on the pressure side?

I don\'t think it will be too thin thinking about it. The guys that connect the gas pipe up for the fridges/freezers on sainsburys use copper pipe 10mm OD I think and that stuff is so soft you can bend it in your hand and they test that pipe work at 40 BAR. For 24 hours. That\'s 588 psi. Think I should be ok at 14.7 psi

[Brett]

I was thinking more along the lines of it deforming/denting easily

[Grant Monkhouse]

I think it will be fine, in this photo you can see where The reducer, 3"-4" is place. It is only a small piece and was the only one made from ally that I could find when I ordered all my pieces. Plus it is welded to a thicker piece and the structure and circular shape of the piping will aid in it strength.



You can get the picture total of what I\'m doing with the intake now. Just going to draw up the plenum on paper as you can see i have chopped the standard piece :eek
