lui Posted October 30, 2008 Author Share Posted October 30, 2008 (edited) Well James started putting my PHR Street Single kit together this week & I pop down to see how all going today & yesterday & so far James is doing a great Job. Work done so far Manifold fitted with EGT sensor tapped & fitted to it / Turbo & turbo jacket / downpipe / wastegate / screamer pipe / air filter / double de-cat & all lines & feeds fitted :eyebrows: Mocal oil cooler for auto box cooling mounted & all plumbing work to it done. James has also taken out my Blitz LM V Spec Intercooler to flush & clean out + all hard pipes cleaned / Having HKS ssqv bov welded to hard pipe + modification from turbo to intercooler pipe welded & should be back & fitted tomorrow. Old 550 injectors + resistor pack out & All PE 650 injectors fitted. Base mapped installed by Ryan G & waiting to be fully mapped which all booked in for 10th Nov with Ryan G @ SRR Things to be done now is re-fit intercooler & hard pipes / tidy up cables / sort out breather filters / drain down on old oil & new filter + Silokene Pro oil in & few other small bits & bobs & James hoping to do all test & possibly fire it up tomorrow / Saturday :) James has also taken loads of pic's of install but did not have time or equipment to transfer today but loads of build will be up soon. Few complications with build that I know of so far are as follows but James has sorted all out are; 01.RMM 3" stainless Double de-cat pipe brought from PHR did not line up properly & had to be slightly modded to fit perfect. 02.Down pipe from turbo to double decat needed to be modded with bolts to fit flanges as was extremely close to steering pole coming through bulk head to rack. 03.Oil drain braided line from turbo had to be shorten as was to long. 04.Intercooler pipe from turbo to intercooler had to be modded to fit. 05.Some of exhaust flange bolts had to be drilled as original ones did not line up. But sure James at ToyotGt might add few comments about these once looked at this thread. Also want to say big thanks to Heckler popping down today as well & given us a spin in his PHR Street Single too.

adnanshah247 Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 if you dont mind me asking u lui, how much is this all going to cost ya? i so badly want to go single but money is so tight lately! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lui Posted October 31, 2008 Author Share Posted October 31, 2008 (edited) if you don't mind me asking u lui, how much is this all going to cost ya? i so badly want to go single but money is so tight lately! To be honest all was just perfect timing with it all happening, old hybrids out & turbo side striped down, had good offers for everything with new hybrids fully refurbished & all other parts turbo side sold everything in one afternoon with out advertising anything & at they stage was very good choice for PHR Street Single conversion to go ahead. Just over 3K which includes all top spec parts & labour but sold all old parts that came of for around £1800 so far & still few parts left to sale still. So around £1200 but I had all other major parts needed + complete with new re-build on engine all done. See my full engine spec in my Garage.

With all my engine spec Ryan G is hoping for around 540 BHP & around 520-530 Torque :eyebrows: But just will have to wait & see Edited October 31, 2008 by lui (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 I hope you will get the hp figure you're after. I think 540 bhp will be very nice on the streets. What max boost will Ryan aim at? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lui Posted November 1, 2008 Author Share Posted November 1, 2008 I hope you will get the hp figure you're after. I think 540 bhp will be very nice on the streets. What max boost will Ryan aim at? 1.4 bar I reckon but once all mapped will be keeping boost down & running normal & only open up for certain occasions & when needed :eyebrows: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 1.4 bar I reckon but once all mapped will be keeping boost down & running normal & only open up for certain occasions & when needed :eyebrows: I don't believe you. I thought like that too before I got my car back from Whifbitz ... so far, I didn't touch the button on the boost controller ... always running the full 1.6 bar of boost.

JDModified Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 (edited) Install pics Nice fitting manifold with hole tapped for EGT sensor Wastegate adapter had a warped surface but a nice think gasket so fingers crossed no extra expenese needed to make good seal. Wastegate otherwise fit very nicely. The wastegate had a double vband flange fitment meaning rotating for perfect dumptube exit angle was very easy Turbo was test fitted to check clearances. All was great Installing the downpipe was a finger busting job as any amount of twizzling bolts whilst supporting the pipe in position was in vain, it wasnt possible to put in more than 2 downpipe to turbo bolts at one time. Heres why! The bolt holes drilled in the downpipe were to my surprise not accurate After some redrilling the downpipe was able to slide up to the turbo and refitted The oil return line was trouble the fitment to sump was very tight with a subframe bolt and the line provided ready to install was about 3 inches too long which meant forcing it into place would have had it rubbing up against the steering coloumn, I removed it, broke the connection open, cut the pipe and remade the connection. Other pipe connections were made along with some capping of now redundant pipes I was concerend with the location of the boost solinoid, heat might have been a problem so that was relocated. Once under the car it was very visible there was a clearnace issue with the downpipe and steering column meaning it was impossible to get a bolt through the hole to make a connection with the exhaust. I removed the downpipe again and tapped the hole in question with a 14ml tap so a bolt/thread could be screwed in. The double decat section of exhaust once fitted to the downpipe wouldnt line up with the rear section of exhaust. Some time and heat had it bent into the correct shape.

JamieP Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 One thing for lui to consider is your top hard pipe hose for the rad looks to be to long and will be putting a lot of strain on the plastic rad, would be worth replacing that for a silicon hose or shorting the metal one before it cracks the rad.

Pig Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Will be good to compare the results of a cast manifold to the BL. Good to see the EGT sensor in a proper place, i didnt dare put mine there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDModified Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 (edited) The turbo to intercooler pipe had to be modifed to fit as the test fit wouldnt even get close. Welded and fit. also visible in the above pics is the Auto box oil cooler. Edited November 1, 2008 by JDModified (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDModified Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 There was loads of odds and ends to tidy up, fresh oil went in for the restart, a heat sheild was made, there was some heat proofing to do round some cables, but thats the bulk of the pics, so if you have any questions feel free to ask.
