So just pulled the spring and ball on that t and everything is rock and roll just waiting for a good tune which will hopefully happen monday when I don't have my day job to attend to.
Messing around with the car.
On the freeway, 6th gear, punch it from 2000rpm, 5lbs of boost (low boost) at 2700rpm zone
very happy with that sort of response now.
Might do some experiments for personal knowledge next month though.
The 96mm turbine housing only comes in 1.32 ar, I would like to experiment with the 1.10 ar housinge but that is for the smaller 88mm wheel. So plan is
Get smaller 1.1 ar housing, machine it out to the 96mm wheel, chop off the crappy marmon flange and set it up with a standard 4" vband. Also the turbo is "internally" gated now, we have cleaned up and simplified the wastgate but mounting it straight to the turbine housing. With a single 38mm wastegate we can hold 4lbs of boost perfectly stable so there is no need for a larger wastegate adding more cost to the kit.
When I get the new turbine housing I'll also get everything to do the final for production muffler section with cutout. Our proof of concept has worked very well and we are happy with it. Now just some refinements for the bling factor and if we can knock even more off that lag while keeping top end power in check we will.
