just wonder what advantage it is?

 

you mean the EGR type of ALS ?

i havent run it but will be on the new car

 

EGR, exhaust gas recirculation is used on cars as a emmisons device as it lowers the temperature inside the combustion chamber so reducing NOX emmisions, which occur only above a certain temperature, it lowers to below this temperature.
tabetha

 

its an emissions reducing device, cant really see any gains in using it to gain power??

 

Ian @ Racetek runs it on his

 

yeah thats what i mean. like the rally cross cars

 

not on a world rally car its not.

 

a few world car escorts have it fitted andrew,plus the 98 subaru world cars,

 

Is this what you guys are refering to was a picture taken of a Hyundia WRC car at Goodwood



Mike

 

All WRC cars run it, only ROAD car ive ever seen, in the world TBH, is Ians (Racetek) Escort Cossie.

 

for anyone who dont know what we are on about, its a controlled vent between the compressor outlet, and the turbine inlet! mountune call it EGR ALS

not egr as in the emmisons crap

 

And how does it work Mr T ?

mike

 

during the normal als cycle, you open up the egr port aswell

 

So is that more back pressure from the exhaust side of things to keep the turbo spooled quick ?

Mike

 

not all WRC cars use EGR,ONLY SOME.

 

anyone got any links to this? quite interested! and does ian ever take his car on the track?

 

I would if Mike Rainbird wears a pink dress as he waves the green start flag!

On the subject of EGR, Gareth T is correct. Also as I understand it, it allows for ALS to be run at marginally lower temps. It has a small canister of compressed air which feeds into the inlet manifold controlled by a pair of solenoids.

I can put up pic of it tomorrow unless anyone has one somewhere?

 

 

lol are these available of the shelf? and why does no one else use them?!

 

mountune do it for 2800 +vat its set up for wrc manifolds

 

The person that posted up the cost after your question has provided the answer I think .


Ian,
That's my normal Satuday night out-fit, so no bother - see you on track soon .

 

Tommy Field WRC engines have it too.

 

not all of them though.

 

Now why did I expect that reply??

 

i think so too!!

 

Better buy a proper turbo and fu** exhaust temp !

 

if ian gose out on track ,i may start laying eggs

eh>?

 

Sold to a good home

 

I stuck £350 on it, refreshed the sreen and I was the winning bidder, refreshed it again and it was at £910 .... Who's had it then? and have you got a T6 or T6 2000 ECU?
