need one but dont know were to get one from anyone help?

 

Do you want one like this? just the top section, with the M4 stainless bolt?

 

yeah looks like that were did u get it from

 

 

 

I dont know where that one came from, but I do have some new ones in the workshop....what are they worth?

 

been busy on the lathe have we ian?

i couldnt get the top hat to work right when i done one

 

Cant beat a bit of swarf pal.....

Tapers can be a bitch to do....

 

ive been busy on the lathe aswell

 

how do u get the old valve out ive undone the 2 bolts does it just pull out as it seems stiff as fook

 

pull like fuck

 

Brace yourself and put a cushion down......big mole grips....one good yank....job done....

 

Ive got a collection like that...lol...some slightly more charred than other....

 

its completly home made,,, even the bobbin,, so i can see this one getting charred

i have got an other idea i wanna try,,, might start making it next week! a revolving plug in the throttle body

 

nice work gareth.

also, can u PM me the info you sent me ages ago about the Stack speed sensors pretty please

 

got it out

 

Hmm I think that would be the way forward....coil looks the business pal.....did you wind by hand, or do you have a posh machine at work....on second thought, you probs made a machine...... you giant brained welshman you....

 

no,,,,

 

what size is the nut on the end its tiny

 

i spun it on a lathe mate,,,, problem was i couldnt find any new lacquered wire,,,, so i unwound an old coil onto a bar,,,then wound that onto my new bobbin,,,, bit of a bodgy,,, but i wanted to try it!, it works as a coil,, but havent seen if its strong enough of the car yet

 

3mm isnt it

 

what a size only go down to 5mm

 

I did work out the length an size of wire necessary to lift the valve I made....

This the wire we used....

how did you work out the energy needed to lift your valve?

did you do it force=pressure x area, where pressure would be the differatial pressure across the valve area,,, and of cause area being the valve area?

 

there worth nothing mate,,, post them to me and ill dispose of them in an environmentally friendly fashion

 

are they a direct replacement ie ubolt mine and put this on? what causes them to stick

 

you need to machine (or cut) the end of the idle valve off

 

yes... I cant quite decide if you would have a differential across the valve though....its subject to a vacuum on the plenum side and its that pressure it has to overcome....along with the weight of the valve itself and any return spring (if fitted)....we perfected it with a little trial and error...i reckon it would work, but might be on the top side of the output from the ecu.....

 

big job or can a trained machinist do it

 

i hope your not near the 10amp output of a t6
,,, 120 watt

 

a trained machinest should be able to a the top hat aswell you lazy man

 

I wasn't doing it based on the T6 but more for the mass market P8 etc....and I ran out of time to really develop it....

 

im useless with my hands to be honest.
prefer to just goto a machinst say cut that off and stick this on.
i would just drill the holes out but i think the als will be to mild for my liking.

 

story of my life mate i wanna give up work and play,,, but sadly the band wont let me

 

IS necesary to change ECU software When I want to change standard drilled ISCV for TOPHAT one? I have MSD antilag in P8.

Thanks
