Anyone know what it is?

Want to get my turbo housing redrilled as the lambda hole has been welded up, so need to let the machine shop know what size to drill it too.

cheers

 

usually 18mm x1.5 mm pitch

you have got sumat on the way to you

 

Ryan I've got a boss and a blanking nut here if you want it?

 

there's 2 sizes - i believe that those fitted to the turbo are the smaller of the 2 (12 x 1.25mm, not 18mm that the wideband normally are) but you should check this as i am not 100% sure

 

cheers lads.

can anyone shed some light? will be fitting the usual sensor for closed loop

 

If ford sensor then 12x1.25,others are 18mm.

 

what sensor are you using?

 

havent got one yet, but will need to work with l8/p8/s8

 

yeah im pretty sure wil be a usual bosch item like stu sells for his closed loop kits.

 

Bosch LS 02

M18x1.5

 

cheer rob, will tell the guys when i take it down for drilling tommorrow.

then the turbo can go back on

should be ready to start at the weekend

 

I've just picked up a turbo shield tonight, did you still need the brackets off one ?

 

fuckin told u nancy boy

 

The narrow band is M12, the wide band is M18, check my website for prices . Properly machined items with recess to aid location etc .

Spot on! Identical to mine

 

Although the narrow band is available in 18mm also!!
tabetha

 

Whats the difference between narrow band and wide band?

 

just thought i would check something, and indeed i was right, where the lambda boss, are situated on the escort exhaust housing the sensor would foul on the head due to the 2wd manifold and the angle it put the housing at. bugger.

oh well least i found that out before i had the housing drilled.

guess its gotta be a boss welded on the downpipe then, will get the car running and then drive the car somewhere to have the boss welded on rather than start taking bits off again

 

That's how mine was done Ryan, make sure you leave any heatshield's and strut brace's etc off to make it easier for them!

 

Fit 18mm, that way you can run either a narrowband or a wideband in it.

 

see that boss I'm sending you will come in handy now
