Turbo BS Thread

Are you looking for a pipe to mount your stock maf into?

 

Thank you, but I'm not the guy having turbo probs. I dont even have a turbo yet

Yes sir

 

Have you checkout out this?

$62 Spectre Performance 9405 3" Aluminum Mass Air Flow Sensor Kit (SPE-9405) , Black

Yeah well, its probably a good idea for ANYONE to check for oil in their intake...

 

Lol. True.

 

I will now

True, i did clean my maf if it makes you feel any better....

 

What if my outlet on turbo is 2.5?

 

reducers

 

^^^^This is what I did.^^^^

 

Today I was able to work on the truck fixed a lot of vacuum leaks it still leaks down but a whole lot slower than it did. I replaced the PCV valve, grommet and hose that was not fun I kept pushing the grommet into the valve cover. Now as soon as I get the softer spring I'll see if that fixes the stalling problem.

 

my outlet is 2" I have a 2-2.5" there all my IC piping is 2.5" then I have a 2.5-3" to my MAF adapter and then it's 3" the rest of the way to the TB

 

Is your PCV system attached to the intake tubing still? Or vent to atmosphere?

 

As far as the boost leak tester here is a list of parts that I purchased :
3" X 3" w/2.5 ring coupler comes with the hose clamps by Spectra at Autozone $9.99
Shrader valve w/vacuum gauge at Ace Hardware $14
2 1/2"L X 1/2" galvanized pipe at HomeDepot $2
3/4 to 1/2 reducer at HomeDepot $2
Rubber foot for a comercial pressure washer drilled out enough for the 1/2"
Pipe to thread into found in my shop. I used gorilla glue to seal the rubber foot.

This is just what I was able to come up with i'm sure it could be done cheaper and you can see there's many ways to do this but I think the important thing is the Schrader valve and the vacuum gauge because you can put the air in and it stays in and you can watch the gauge to see how bad the leaks are. Oh and soap and water in a spray bottle to spray over the hoses and fittings

 

It's attached to the intake

 

Should get a stiffer, not softer. Softer can make it open during idle. If you have a boost gauge, measure vacuum at idle and peak PSI is the minimum your spring should be or your BOV will open at idle (as you've already experienced.

 

For tomorrow. Tundra filter on the left, Tacoma on the right

 

What exactly is the euro...i got the regular platinum. Same price so I figured it was the same pretty much

 

Different additives.

 

Oh, should I have got the euro?

And once turboed do you run different oil?

 

More zinc and phosphorus. @Torspd can probably elaborate further.

From my understading, higher zinc content give better protection. US Spec oils have more detergents for environmental protection or whatever.

BTW, this is spec'ed for Ferrais so +10 HP, right?
