berg Posted July 27, 2013 Author Share Posted July 27, 2013 Few updates...have some pics to upload tomorrow. Emanage ultimate is all wired in now Lambda sensors all wired in All i have left to do is fit my oil return when my new fitting finally turns up Also intercooler and pipework Had to order a new intercooler as the same side intercooler is impossible to fit unfortunately so that was a set back. All being well it will be running this time next week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berg Posted July 27, 2013 Author Share Posted July 27, 2013 Are you running just the one Lambda sensor mate or two? Im keeping both, i have 2 bosche single wire, screw in lambdas to replace both the oem sensors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich.2211 Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Im keeping both, i have 2 bosche single wire, screw in lambdas to replace both the oem sensors Ahh right, I'm running a single screw in type. There is only one wire going into each lambda sensor as standard IIRC so I'm thinking in theory I can just join the wires together and the ecu will receive two identical signals.

I think that will work fine to be honest...i just bought 2 sensors as i werent sure at the time and my downpipe had 3 lambda ports on it. I have both lambdas and a wideband sensor installed now. Standard sensors are just one wire though your right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Get an elbow welded to your turbo. Your have silicone issues if you have a silicone elbow, the heat screws them up. Trust me, I've got issues and I know others have. Do it while the turbo is fresh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fly Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 If your wide band has a narrowband simulated output you could remove the two narrowbands completely [-][/-]I think that will work fine to be honest...i just bought 2 sensors as i werent sure at the time and my downpipe had 3 lambda ports on it.

berg Posted July 28, 2013 Author Share Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) Probs a stupid question but what material is the compressor housing as ill need to find somewhere that can weld it. Edited July 28, 2013 by berg (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berg Posted July 28, 2013 Author Share Posted July 28, 2013 I removed the carbon cannister today, the vacuum source that used to go to the cannister, can i use this for my boost gauge (tru boost) and my BOV? Will save me some hassle if so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fly Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I don't see why not, it comes from the intake anyway doesn't it? I just capped my off as I had run my lines from elsewhere. No idea on the compressor housing I think I will get to that in the winter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fly Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 How did you find changing your clutch ive got all my parts and ramps but i cant bring myself to it just yet.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berg Posted July 29, 2013 Author Share Posted July 29, 2013 Thats good then ill use that for my bov and boost gauge then Clutch was very easy in my opinion...box was off in less than 2 hours and took another 3 to get clutch on and box back on. Easiest car ive ever done a clutch on as nothing is in the way of the box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine is being mapped this Saturday so will be interesting to compare!! What boost are you aiming for? Sorry if I've forgot Mine is all done apart from filling with fluids and a couple of bits to tinker with so fingers crossed we can compare builds at Trax!

Definately mate looking forward to TRAX Well i had 2 wires wrong on the greddy throttle position and map sensor thats why it was running pig rich! (even though i followed the guide and all colours and numbers matched up lol) All sorted now and still on the dyno, will hopefully be ready to collect tomorrow afternoon fingers crossed I told them anything between 400-420 would be nice so probably around 14-15psi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really looking forward to the first drive in mine, will be an experience What spring have you got in your wastegate mate?? Yer me too cant wait to drive it again! I have a 7psi spring in mine Did yu sort your vband in the end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich.2211 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Yer me too cant wait to drive it again! I have a 7psi spring in mine Did yu sort your vband in the end? 7 psi in mine as well. I've got a manual boost controller and a 0.9 bar wastegate spring on the way though if I want to up it a little. Just playing it by ear at the moment, will start with low boost and then bring it up providing no issues show up Regards the V Band.. In short the answer is no. I'm on my fourth V Band Clamp - none of which fit correctly. I've ended up modifying the V Band clamp that came with the kit and fitting it with a new threaded 'T' as the original snapped. It's a temporary fix at best to be honest, just until I find a properly fitting V Band clamp. Is yours sorted now?? I'm a little worried incase it starts blowing and then gives the Lambda sensor false readings making it difficult to map. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berg Posted August 29, 2013 Author Share Posted August 29, 2013 Ive had the same hassle with my v band yer i dont think my downpip sits quite right so it isnt flush at the turbo end thats why the clamp isnt pulling it together. Think managed to seal it this time but its not ideal and its the first thing ill sort when the cars back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berg Posted August 29, 2013 Author Share Posted August 29, 2013 I now have the car back and they have done an awesome job Got the boost controller set at 3 settings 8psi wastegate pressure 10psi 14psi High setting it made 427@the wheels (which seems to calculate to around 500bhp Im running my requested setting A for now which is just over 400 Very happy car pulls hard and sounds awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mapping is now on Wednesday (a few days later than originally planned) but I literally cannot wait! Get some videos up please!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
