Does it mainly do it at idle? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88767-gazzas-turbo-build/page/84/#findComment-1688191 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not an oil pressure issue? (I assume you can log/monitor this) Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88767-gazzas-turbo-build/page/84/#findComment-1688195 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz097 Bronze Donating Members 1,752 Member For: 13y 10m 25d Posted 08/09/19 03:15 AM Author Share Posted 08/09/19 03:15 AM No I can't monitor oil pressure The turbo is less then 2000 Kay's old, rebuilt by procharge so I would hope not. Its done it twice now, about every 10th drive. The last time it done it was I was driving casually home from work, and I noticed it when I pulled into the driveway. About a minute later it was all good no smoke at all.

Tom Tucker Donating Members 703 Member For: 5y 11m 16d Posted 08/09/19 05:04 AM Share Posted 08/09/19 05:04 AM How do you rate procharge? How legit are their claims that the 64mm will do 550rwkw and reach full boost at 3000rpm? Everything I've seen suggests it's laggier than a gen2 gtx3582.

If your real keen get the GT ratio box. Longer first with the rest being closer ratio. Expand I get no grip until 4th,even 4th can spin. Just too much power through 3.73. Needs higher to grip. 2.73 would be perfect. Great for racewars to.

Didn't do anything though The turbo came back from procharge with a feed nipple in it. Looked about the right size.
