Homer Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Davey, good to see you have replaced the oil feed and supply lines with your own Just a few things to make sure you are on track for a more trouble free build: - Make sure you have the manifold faces machined, they WILL be warped! The two key ones are the face to the block and the T4 face to the turbo. It doesn't cost much to do and will save you a lot of problems in the mid-term. - Make sure that you do not use the XS oil drain gaskets, make your own or use seomthing from the likes of BL, they are pence to buy - I recommend using the stock manifold gasket rather than a sheet one. It's a very high quality item and will last far longer. - Ensure that the intake track to the cast manifold is wrapped very well, heat soak on the NA-T setup is extreme and a power killer. It can be helped by wrapping the manifold, but that may not make it last past a year or two. - I highly recommend you do not use the XS power v-band clamps, they are extremely weak and will fold up with the slightest of torque. Again, good quality items are only a few quid. - Check the v-band flange on the DP is tapered, a lot I've seen are not and it will not allow the v-band to clamp on it properly Keep us posted, pics always welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have used replacement parts all the way through as I didnt buy a complete kit, I bought everything seperate. I thought it was pointless buying a kit and not using most of the parts! Will keep you updated with how I get on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey001 Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 Hey guys started fitting everything to a finish now just some pics to update what ive been upto! Got everything ready to bolt on tomorow,just need to pick some new oil up! Anyone recommend any brand of oil and thickness? Do i need more oil in now with having a turbo fitted as there are more oil lines, or is it just the same amount? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
