So I take it you got the standalone figured out?

My intake is still like that, it seems just fine the way it is. I am going front mount soon though.

 

Really wanting to see some tuned numbers man!

 

lol im getting there, been calling a few dyno shops around just trying to get the best deal.

 

Well, i ended up making a small catch can since I still sip oil past the seals at high revs.

I will update the thread once I install it.

Let me now when you start the front mount set-up. I want to follow it.

 

Based on the can design, I take it that your are still using intake vacuum on the top fitting and not venting to the atmosphere. If you are, you have to plumb that line at some point between the air filter and the compressor housing (this cannot see boost, only vacuum).

Just keep in mind that (depending on boost levels, airflow, etc) that you are still going to see hot air into the intake...however, you are completely eliminating crank case pressure.

 

The sump can is to be installed right under the turbo so that it can gravity drain into it. The scavenge pump already installed will then draw oil from the can to return back to the oil pan rather than scavenge straight from the turbo.

If I did my calculations right the can should never fill up with oil, which should equal to no pressure build up at the turbo drain so my oil shouldn't be backing up through my seals and into my intake.

 

Oh for f*ck's sake. When you said "catch can" in the first post I was thinking of evacuating crank case pressure. Sorry, when I saw that thing being used for an oil catch can, I almost lost it, lol.

 

Well step one of tunning is finally here!

I mounted the hardware (stand alone ECU and external igniter module) using my former cold air intake shield, looks awesome!

"OH MY GOD!!! NO E-FAN!?!?!?!?!?!?!" (vomits uncontrollably).

I'm just kidding. I love the setup with the ecu's.
