Nah, people ask questions about all sorts of different makes on here mate.

Not to mention:
"why are women so fooking complicated"
"fooking taxman, how do i avoid?"
"is this wart on my knob something to worry about"

Thats what makes it so interesting, the general chat section can literally be about anything!

Out of your 3 options i would be far more concerned about the wart personaly
you've obviously never had the taxman on your back then

Chip the catalytic converter fitted to the vauxhall turbo was in fact a safety feature to prevent bits of the vauxhall from injuring innocent motorists

OK, I was asking because I have just put a T34 with cut back blades on the cossie,
i was going to to double check before i did but forgot to .

I am going to run it at 24-26 psi using Dark Greens.

I presume it will be fine to run on this setup..

Cheers

And yes it will be fine to run on that, assuming the chip in the car is set up for a t34 to run 24psi

Here you go...



I was under the impression the idea of cut back was to improve the flow ie lessen the back pressure that might be awfully high on some turbos by removing some of the bottle neck.

AlexD,
am going to run it at 24-26 psi using Dark Greens.
26 psi held, T34 with cutback turbine wheel and fuelled by 803s at std fuel pressure?

Best of luck.

Stu,
I'm pretty sure that all Ahmed's set-ups run 3.5 bar fuel pressure, so providing this has been done, he should be okay...

I thought standard pressure on a cossie was 2.5 bar

Better to set it up on the wideband for the chip you have on max boost you are running though Alex, until such time as you can get it remapped.

Any weekend you are going after this one (due to TOTB) just drop me a text in the afternoon to remind me to bring my wideband with me.

Nope.. you are confusing 1 bar absolute with 2 bar absolute. Atmosphere is 1 bar absolute... no turbo boost, no vac. IE: Pipe removed.

Dont understand that comment stu, surely:

Pipe disconnected = atmosphere only
Pipe connect = -1 bar due to vacuum

So 2.5 with -1 bar (ish) is about the same as 3.5 with the pipe off?


Thats what the gauge on mine was showing in those two conditions anyway

it is 3.8 bar absolute on a std 4x4 and 3.5 bar absolute on a 2wd .
Typical idle vacuum is 15 inches of mercury so expect an aprox drop with vac on to be 0.5 bar.it is alway best to measure fuel pressure as absolute.
Don't ask why just do as you are told LOL
