Final parts arrived today............Brom made me buy them

Anyone know what these are ? F**KED if I do

Box says "V-band 75mm" (got to be better than narrow band & wide band things that other peeps go on about)




75 mm ring type thing



Another with 4 bolt holes



Proper jubalee clip - no messing

 

Cue Chip with the "deep pockets, shallow knowlage" one liner

 

v band isnt for the exhaust is it? IE on to a turbo with no bolt holes for the downpipe?

V bands are used on some external waste gates too, but at 75mm, i'd doubt it'd be that..

 

Exhaust downpipe to turbo mounting

 

looks like someone got a gt series turbo

 

ALL THE GEAR, BUT NO IDEA

 

Never heard that one before

Cant say much for at least one more week...only:

ZOO/Bromski Stage 1 conversion

 

Lol @ "Stage1"




Cant wait to see it Doug, should be a beast

 

r u turbo'ing your Ferrari 355\MR2 copy

 

Maybe he wants it to sound like a real MR2 turbo so people dont know its a fake

(ps. yes that IS jealousy, lol)

 

doug one end goes on the turbo one end gopes on the downpipe the V clamp holds them together

 

for the next question, which one goes where doug (hint, the turbo has bolt holes in it and the downpipe doesnt )

 

Proper fiddly little bastard to undo too. Had to undo mine to fit my de-cat.

 

I knew that all the time...........and the big jubalee clip holds them together

 

I believe you doug.






























thousands wouldnt

 

Rudey, sorry cant say too much for now.......

Once it is done and live mapped, then all will be revealed - NO secrets at all, it's is to be a quick road car with "occasional" track-day/sprint use, so not aiming for big power, just a very responsive/low lag package

 

You wont get an answer from doug, he is far too secretive, lol

I suspect though he is hoping for "somewhere near to 550bhp, and less lag than on his old 511bhp spec"

 

oops, posting at same time!

 

doug where did you get them from and @ what cost?

Need a sets for my t61

Cheers

Ryan

All seems tantalisingly close now doug, you must be bouncing off the walls waiting for it back!

 

Yes, I cant wait

But Brom is doing me a good deal on all of the labour involved so he has to fit it in with all the other ZOO work (he's doing lots of beams at the moment)....so my car will done when it is done, I cant hold Brom to a set date as that would not be fair.......Most of the time we are waiting for supply of parts/machine shop etc...well, you know what it's like......

 

Yep, i know exactly what its like mate, as soon as its not an "off the shelf conversion" things suddenly take forever when it comes to getting parts!

 

cheers doug!

only need 1 flange and clamp

As my turbo already has a flange welded on the back

 

didnt need to rush on loom after all

Oh well, over and done now

 

loom was urgent for the dyno session that did not happen last week as originally planned

 

Nice to know there is at least one supplier out there who delivers on time though, fair play Ryan

 

its ok doug, needed to be done none the less, but could have saved myself some stress.

No probs

cheers Chip

 

Chip, the loom that Ryan did is a work of art.... .......will post some pics up later

 

Doug, ive been tempted by one myself, even though there is nothing wrong with my current one that im aware of, the quality of them is awesome based on what ive seen of them so far.

 

very good looms and at very good prices

 

Chip the loom is totally different to niges. Im sure Doug will agree.

As he has seen niges and can compare

& Cheers for the kind comments Doug, glad your happy

 

Ryan, loom pics sent by e-mail - 14 full size high resolution pics

 

Cheers Doug, greatfully recieved.
