Puffwagon's Territory Adventures

[Puffwagon]

Oh well it's been 2 weeks and it's still not running. I've been very tied up sorting out another car for someone, so mine has taken a back seat unfortunately. There's frig all left on mine to get it driving, so will get onto it after I finish this other car on Wednesday or Thursday.

 

Anyhow there is that, in case anyone is wondering why I haven't updated anything yet.

You're good mate, smashing out work for somebody else is more than enough excuse to not be working on your own haha

Got it run in this afternoon. Left the cams at 00 and the new turbo seems no worse than the last in regard to boost threshold, not that I revved it much or boosted it very high. Will swap out the run in oil for hectic oil tomorrow, have a couple of things to address and then should be ready for some boost.

fantastic news

Awesome mate. It's been a long time coming. Boost hard, boost well.

Awesome, what was your running in procedure? Brick on accelerator banging on limiter for 10 minutes?

[Puffwagon]

Haha not quite. I run the rings in with my usual big cam/big turbo procedure and it's done. It varies slightly from the stock cam/stock turbo procedure but not much. I move the rev range up slightly to account for the lack of power down low.

Had a timing cover seal leak, fortunately I've already built the engine so I skipped that step and just replaced the seal 

 

No more leaks TF.

woo, success

Yes, I was mildly disappointed to say the least, but now that it's sorted I can move onto other areas that need installing and tuning etc.
