I use this turbo Maxspeedingrods on my R33 GTST RB25DET. Is it absolutely necessary to run the water through it? Rn its oil cooled only because I am missing the water pipes on my engine (got it this way). It works fine. I have the engine out rn and wondering if to have my mechanic install the water feed. Thanks
Question, on your water feed do you by chance have a diagram on how you did yours? I have TT LS C10 I’m build and I can’t find information on plumbing the water lines. Most diagrams are for hondas and single turbos. Thank you!
Dont use a restrictor on a journal bearing Turbo. There not necessary. As for a bearing Turbo dont guess on restrictor size. Go steaight to the experts at TurboSmart and install a TurboSmart OPR. Restrictors have been obsolete for some time now. About your twin Turbo orientation, why did you not purchase a turbo for one side or the other that has opposite/reversed entrance and exit? Your currently running two of the same turbo on a v8 configuration? Precision Turbo has Turbos in any directional orientation you need. Just asking......
Budget is always the devil of all builds, when building for yourself is one thing but building for a person who doesn't do this is another, unfortunately.. Yes the current turbos don't need restrictors in most cases, but always confirm this for your self. What requirements change constantly and as I mention please always refer to the manufacture for required parts for correct assemble. Plus, It was recommended by the manufacturer to use one on these turbos. They were designed off an old model garrett and had a rare thread to boot. So since recommended I installed but appreciate your comment, excellent info and questions!
Thanks man. Great information. Btw, Is it common to get exhaust gas leaking out from a turbo back into the coolant system. Some Ford eco's have a secondary cooling circuit via a small auxillary 12v pump to just cool the turbo water jacket, even after switch off. If there is good cylinder/headgasket pressures on test and all other things considered, could a damaged turbo/seal give similar coolant loss symptoms to a leaky headgasket/cracked head/cracked liner/block y'think?
Sorry for the delay but depending on the amount of damage just as a head gasket loss a turbo could allow that if the damage is extreme enough. But typically no this shouldn't happen. That pump is working like a turbo delay would but is pumping water also not just running the engine longer. This is very important in order to extend turbo life, cooling them after use is very important.
I have a C20 journal bearing ,water cooled turbo, and am to fit the water lines on an old Toyota 2LT diesel engine. Am afraid that the coolant temp rise and so the engine temperature. Any taughts? Tks!
