Turbo BS Thread

After pulling things apart, my conclusion is that the pcv/ccv lines froze, which in turn blocked the oil returning to the pan and pushed copious amounts of oil through the turbo. The reason the lines froze is because I haven't emptied the catch can in months due to the valve handle disappearing. Lesson learned.

 

I leave a breather venting to atmosphere with the drain open

 

I'm not too fond of the smell of the crank so I have mine recirculated before the turbo.

 

Can make it go to downpipe too to burn off

 

Angle it at a 45 and it sees constant vacuum too

 

Meh.
Bellows didn't want to play I guess.

 

I like this idea! Wonder how it will effect my cat though.

 

Hard to tell. Split open?

 

Vibrant was the original but looks like they have off brands now.

Not sure about the cats. Just don’t run one lol

 

That’s a nice kit. I’m honestly considering it. Might be better than venting to atmosphere

 

would it not wind up there if it recirculated back to the intake anyway?

 

Correct

 

Yes but it gets burnt before going to the cat.

 

Yeah, top row split in the gulley. I cut it out and replaced with tubing. So far so good. Glad the leak is gone, the noise was getting worse and annoying. There was a bit of lost power too, response is better now.

 

Trying searching mayne people here are better then me with that deal. Im ordering an aem pump for my truck? Are the pumps the same for 05-15 between 1gr and 2tr, i have a 2tr so if anybody has the correct part number that would be the best. Thanks. Once step closer to the turbo setup.

 

The AEM pump is universal. So how you go about installing it may be slightly different than for the 1GR.

Check out www.urdusa.com. They should have a fuel pump kit, and then you select which pump you want to go with the kit.

 

Ok thank you. Yeah i saw theyre kit i was just going to order the pump myselffrom a different dealer i just didnt know if it took an offset or inline pump so to say. Sorry to derail yall conversion.

 

I am running an

$96 AEM 50-1000 High Flow In-Tank Fuel Pump, Black, 4.055 x 1.535 x 1.535"es

AEM 50-1000 in my 2TR, its a 340Lph

 

I had used the same hoses, and actually had one rupture on cooldown in my driveway...just as an FYI.
I since switched to a Kinugawa braided AN kit, and also threw some heat shileding over them for extra protection from the turbine housing (Which was also under a turbo blanket).

 

Interesting. I have some heat wrap around the one closest to the turbine, no problems so far.
