What day are you going to the garage? I'll be there Thursday or Friday doing some bits on the 240.
How did you get on last week?
Increase the turbo boost pressure, standard is 6-7psi so up it to 10-12psi. It will make a huge difference.
I'd be tempted to just fire some boost into it and enjoy it. If I breaks then fix it!
The ezk is the ignition ecu, these have a separate one for fuel and ignition. The standard fuel ecu has a boost cut (the same as t5's do) so upping the boost to ~12psi will trigger the cut and all...
If you're going for some extra performance I can supply chips for the fuel ecu and ezk or even custom map if your going crazy.
Like it, keep up the good work.
Unless it's msa 15.7 then you'll need vol fcr
You're not going to get close to 300 let alone 400bhp just from bolt ons. It will require serious head work for it be able to flow anywhere near enough air for that.
Also 1 single turbo isn't...
Jetex for the exhaust if you're not looking for loud, most will advise against an induction kit. As for remap, Shem or Tim Williams are your best options.
Can't you just get your turbo rebuilt?
It's kinda pointless putting a bigger turbo on unless you can get it mapped to suit. From what I understand there aren't many options for mapping these either. A t3/4 is going to require a fair bit...
No. Well you can but it's not advisable at all.
Oh I like that a lot...
Buying an accurate calibrated gauge
I can help with chips when you need them.
Remap time then ;)
Don't worry moley, the work hasn't stopped ;) I'll start a new project thread soon.
Must admit rings were my first thought.
Try and get the part number off it and look to VW for a replacement it'll be a lot cheaper than volvo!
That's the recirc working normally, nothing to worry about.
I'm not sure if i can make that one but the one after i will. Hopefully my car will have been to Tim by then too..
and all that by the next shakey meet?? lol
^^^yeah what he said^^^ I do them myself, i got fed up with cowboys and false promises so learned how to do it. I don't charge a lot for it really, in fact after paying to get the ecu socketed I...
The remap will only cost a tad more than a ron box and work a lot better! Also when you do get injectors I can alter the map to suit them for a minimal charge.
Do it right the first time ;)
