    Dane's Hybrid Conversion Thread

    LOL, my clutch won't last a track day, wishful thinking. I know, were all scumbag boy racers over there :-) True, uprated thrust bearing me hole, never boosted it past a 1.7bar peak.I think it was iffy from day one, remember the cavitation post i had up, where the turbo would squeal like a...

    Dane's Hybrid Conversion Thread

    For your reference, a CR V1 with 3k miles on it, not smoking but a LOT of play, no in and out, just side 2 side, visible score marks on the inlet compressor housing from where it made contact, rebuild time. :-(

    Dane's Hybrid Conversion Thread

    Holy smokes that's a lot of movement and I thought my hybrid install was difficult. If you don't mind me asking for reference, I can see the movement clear as day, what part of the turbine are you using as your contact point to show this up, i.e wiggling, the nut on the turbine?

    True Bill, its definetly not a mod you can install and forget about, along with topping up, it needs maintenance. However most kits have a level sensor that can inform you in car if you are running low.I used the sensor from my washer bottle, you could hear that think beep from outside the car...

    I put on an additional 12* up top when testing the WMI, i wouldn't recommend this for everyday use and it should be noted that you don't want to add timing across the range with the likes of lemmiwinks moreover the timing should be added up top where you are using the WMI, Bill can do this.

    It depends on how much advanced timing you have dialled in for the WMI, i turned mine off the other day while logging and she started pulling 9* of timing ******, timing ****** of over 10* and you should be worried, this can be a factor in engine destruction and should be avoided according to...

    If you run out, just fire anything in there, bottled water from the shop, it will help.Also motorway driving is where i use the least amount of meth as i am not on boost the whole time.Farting around town on low gear's/high boost is where i use the most, and logging, you will pi$$ through the...

    Welly, i use my Screen washer bottle for both, WMI and the windows, i never use my rear washer.I only use my front washer under extreme circumstances, just a little squirt here and there.Most heavy duty screen wash use Methanol and as long as it not over 50% it won't damage your paint.Another...

    It is "plug'N'play" to an extend, its really hasn't been tried before with supporting mods in the BAM 225 engine, the key aspect of the thread details that if its on a BAM 225 + 3" TIP + highflow manifold you will more than likely run into surge issues.This never showed itself before as there...

    Guys,(and Gals!) There is a pretty detailed discussion that i think you should be aware regarding certain potiental serious issues regarding the CR K04 Hybrid on the BAM engine, its 6pages but well worth the read if you are considering this turbo.Luckily Welly didn't run into these, i think he...

    Extremely useful post Bill, it can't wait to see 034's response, they are oh so cagey about this product and what a ball'O'***** the mani turned out to be.Interestingly enough when i fitted the 034 Mani i did expierence this Tink Tink sound after some power runs which i though was strange as i...
