RX4 BridgePort Turbo

A flange for your fanimold! :rollin

[Grant Monkhouse]

So iv got turbo into position for making my new manifold:D


And getting these welded up for part of the pre-turbo WI setup, cut at different lengths to see if they make any difference when I start playing around with the wi properly. 4" 6" and 8", new turbo position might allow for a 10" length to be used. Obviously still need hols cutting in and extra pipes off them too allow air in. End that contexts to turbo will have a swage on in so it clamps onto front of turbo securely

dont waste your time moutning the turbo like that.. you just should of bought a manifold from SDR Motorsports in aus for £250 shipped and be done with it..

Really? Why?

[12at]

its common in aus for drag cars that have massive turbos but seriously there is more the enough room for the BW366 between the block and strut tower.. .. i guess if your going for the "wow look at the turbo its moutned sideways" then gold but just to do it for looks and added extra length in the runners i personally wouldnt bother..

[Grant Monkhouse]

It\'s going there for when I go bigger in the future:D I know it fits down in the standard position but it\'s really close to my LIM, which I will also be changing in the future.
Plus it makes positioning the WG in a much easier accessible position.

Got a little motivation this afternoon and got into the garage and started making my fanimold:D




Won\'t be long to finish it off, got some massaging of the pipes to do into the turbo flange and wastegate piping. Having my manifold like this makes things easier for access and also I can route WG dump pipe point out Infront of the wheel:evilaugh

looking good the Famifold Grant!!

[Grant Monkhouse]

Cheers, I took the "I don\'t car about equal lengths but I want as little bends as possible" approach.

Got my mate coming to look at the car next weekend so I can show him what I need him to do welding wise. WG should be in a great place and fire flames all over the floor!!

[BlitzBoy]

yip should look pretty at night the wastegate opening up on two step

[Grant Monkhouse]

Now a 2 step on the street would be awesome, have to check the Haltech I have can do it.

[Grant Monkhouse]

Just checked the haltech forum:D and yep I can do a 2 step/launch control, and it can be done different ways

[BlitzBoy]

yip any aftermarket ECU worth its salt has a secondary rev limit which you activate, mine will just activate from a button , keeping it simple

[Grant Monkhouse]

Yeh iv seen some people have the button on the break pedal. From what iv read you use a soft ignition cut, and within a couple of seconds it builds ~6psi and a few more seconds 10+psi!!

With the Haltech you can also do it cutting fuel but that sounds pointless to me as it won\'t spool turbo??

[colum]

there is also the proper option that drag racers use to build boost, retard 25deg and add a percentage more fuel and a rev limit, proper 2step. ill be using that function as it comes built into my ecu and is usually activated by a clutch switch

tried it on my road car at pod and broke both axles when i jumped off the clutch lol

what wall material you using grant?
