NT TURBO

Yeah unless anyone else can shed some light, I think I'll buy new ones. :(

LOL that was an effort, sorry its huge

Thanks, l really appreciate the help.

Which is why I am sus, there is no numbers or markings of any kind...

Ok, feeling a bit dopey, a case of seemed like a good idea at the time, I bought some second hand fuel injectors which I am told are 60lb daka siemens injectors, does anyone have pics of these or even stock ones to compare? Cheers

Thanks for the replies, I have just been playing with a cheap OBDII reader and the DashCommand software and was trying to get it as accurate as possible.

Does anybody understand volumetric efficiency? I am trying to set up an OBDII link and one of the parameters is the VE, I understand there is a formula to calculate it but it would vary a lot depending on boost and revs. So when are the measurements taken to calculate volumetric efficiency? At idle,at cruise, on boost? has anyone already done this for a stock FG turbo? Cheers, Mick.

High chance, I'll let you know. Cheers

Thanks, Chaos.....you're right, PM box now cleared $900ish?, my housing is scored, I am thinking its rooted, freights no biggy who's that through? Cheers, Mick

Hi all, I joined this site when my BA was brand spankly back in 2002, 11 years later of really trouble free motoring and the turbo has shat itself. What are my options? Has anyone upgraded and have a stock garret in their cupboard they want rid off? What should I pay for a new turbo? Have I f@#$ed my motor too? No odd noises but crusty sh*t in the turbo oil line. intake fan has hit the housing. I didn't know about the oil filter on the turbo line, if this is maintained how many k's is the garret good for? as I am thinking second hand. What should I pay for a second hand unit? would it be worth rebuilding or is this something only garret can do? Any help would be so appreciated as this is my only family car and I don't have a lot of funds.

Does anyone know where the battery for the factory alarm is fitted in a BA?

Does anyone know whats involved in changing the factory alarm battery in a BA?

I'm still keen for a cruise, seventytwo.

Did I hear a cruise mentioned??

Congrats NT.. that's a great feeling... got some pics? and its "till DEBT do us part" shazzy ← suggestion:= Ani lend your camera to NT so we can see some pics of his new humble abode. shazzy ← K, OK.....Not so easy working, moving, cleaning the old place AND finding the dam camera cord lol. Did I mention the 5 kids, wheres the bourbon. Anyway here's a pic..

YAY Finally moved in to my OWN home woohoo. I actually own it...well the bank does, but that's just a technicality.

Most acco's up here (48%) are alcohol related, most acco's happen in speed limited zone, 4 died on the same 80 kphr stretch of road, this law wont change anything. And I bet if the road toll increases it'll be blamed on something else. Gone is the cannonball, 9 mil in income from porcshe and other manufacturers testing here, and the present government. Lots of ppl in Alice including politicians are pissed off with this as am I. The ppl who changed this law arent affected cause they fly down south anyway. rant off Mick

No worries seventytwo, I'm up for a drive any weekend. 2 forum members constitutes a cruise up here And the speed limit has happened yet, it aint over till the fat lady sings.

"I dont think so" is about as FACTUAL as the original post, so apart from 3 three years ago, has anyon HEARD otherwise?

Are the heat shields used with the hotdogs?

Must be time for one last open zone cruise before its too late? Any takers, Darwin to Katherine again maybe.

Yep a boost leak, the short hose from the crossover to the throttle body was folded at the bottom had caused it, still pissed that I got told that's the way it was

Thanks guys I'll go right over it today, Just made me so pissed off when they say it was always like that, and accused me of lying, as I say last time I ever go to Hidden Valley Fraud.
