How is your idle with the 700s? I am thinking of installing a set instead of having my 550s cleaned

UPDATE:



oil feed line:

I installed the oil feed line with the banjo fitting tonight. The banjo fit without any problems. As many of you have probably realized, I'm really excited about this little piece The line itself is slightly too long to take a direct route to the turbo, but I compensated for this by adding a nice long arc.



stock stuff:

I removed all the solenoids and ground down the frame of the rat's nest to eliminate all unnecessary sections. I still have to figure out how I am going to route the oil vent line coming off the oil filler neck. I will probably just run a rubber hose back to the air filter. I may do the same with the oil metering nozzle air intakes, but I am thinking about connecting two small air filters on top of them instead. Has anybody done this?-I think it would be a very clean setup.

TiAL 44

I received my Tial 44mm this weekend. Aside from the V-band flanges, it looks identical in design to the 38mm I posted pictures of a couple pages back. I am hoping to get the flange welded on Monday or Tuesday.

Thats a nice looking wastegate. I have to order a HKS tomorrow. Anyway I just let the oil filler neck off mine vent, I was just going to run some hose to a bottle.

if you want the oil injector nozzles to work, they need a source of vacuum...atmosphere thru a filter is not going to inject oil.

This is something I have studied for some time and I have concluded that they do not need vacuum. If you examine the structure of the valve and consider the negligable amount of vacuum in front of the turbo (which is where the stock metering nozzle lines terminate) I think you will come to the same conclusion. The nozzles can even be run with the air valves capped, but then you will get excess oil injection when the motor is operating in vacuum.



Here is a good read on the subject, with a couple different points of view presented.

oil: yes the banjo is cool!



pcv: the stock system works! it will suck into the tb, and then when theres pressure in the tb, it will put the fumes in front of the turbo. i had it setup to just use the one in the front of the turbo and it pressurized the crankcase, then i open vented it and it made a huge mess, so now i have it hooked up like stock and its fine.

I don't think that is an accurate statement at all...





Don't you remember reading about the kid who used a tee-shirt for an air filter and it got sucked up???



Once the compressor wheel starts boosting it creates quite a bit of vacuum...in turn, injecting more oil.



maybe I'm totally off, I haven't studied the subject.

















**I'll go read the link you posted...maybe I did things backwards
