Re: Turbo ecu
I e-mailed the guy on e-bay to see if he is sending any. If not I found both on ebay. But if all else fails can't I use a tube of gasket maker? Will I need gaskets for the DP and WG if they don't send any?

Re: Turbo ecu
You cant use gasket maker, it wont last any time. Yes you will need gaskets on everything. If they dont come with them you will have to order them.

Re: Turbo ecu
K got the gaskets for T25 and T3. Am I going to have to change the type of oil IM using now? I been using Valvoline 10-40 since I could drive and never had any problems. Some of my buddies run 5-20 or 5-30 can't remember. What would be best?

Re: Turbo ecu
Oh that adjusts how stiff/soft the BOV will be. Not sure on those where the right place is. When it's set to stiff, it takes more 'power' to open the valve to blow off. If it's set too stiff, the BOV won't open and then the compressed air will flow back into the turbo causing compressor surge. If it's too soft, it won't hold any boost and be letting off air every chance it gets.

I painted my compressor with high temp paint, but it's peeling off and looking like crap. If you know how, I would say polish it. Or get it ceramic coated. If you paint, make sure it's 100% clean before hand. Maybe do some light sanding too while at it. You can't paint the exhaust side. Will fall off right away.

Re: Turbo ecu
Touch the turbo after a few pulls...
DON'T! KIDDING! You would need some pretty high temp stuff to do it, and I've never seen it look good. I do hope you're logging your car when you're "hitting the gas" to set things up. FWIW, TurboXS (garbage) blow off valves adjust with washers by unscrewing the top portion. That nipple needs to be on as tight as it can go, and the vacuum line should be zip tied to it. What MAF are you running with that vented valve?

Re: Turbo ecu
Ya I already wiped it down with just a wet rag and got all the grime off, looks better than it did. Wonder if crome polish would work? Believe IM just running a MAP.

Re: Turbo ecu
Hell touch the turbo after it's been idling... my arms are full of burns from these things. No fun.
Lando, it's the 420a platform, so no MAF, just the MAP.
