Hey guys it's turner with the turbo'd v6 Something went haywire with my newtriton account and I have had to start a new one, quick update I have since pulled the turbo off as it went south (the turbo that is and issues with the piggy back ecu) so u have started another project with this ute. I will be mounting two small turbos in the engine bay and feeding them into one pipe then through the intercooler, the ecu is being replaced with a vipec and the Pistons are being changed out with forged ones. This is what I should've done from the start but I guess I wanted to try something different on the ute. Some gambles pay off, some show you what you should have done haha, so I have made another exhaust to replace the rear mount one and I have left the 7th injector on the car and just re routed to fuel lines. I know the fueling side is great so no work needed there. The intake temps were good with that intercooler but we will see with the turbos mounted closer to the engine. Turbo sizes not sure as of yet I'm off to see a mob in town and work out what's the best solution oh and I will be buying quality turbos as the last two shat themselves quicker then expected. The oil feed side is sorted and will be welding in a fitting on each side of the sump for the oil return. With the forged Pistons I will still only run 6psi maybe 8psi if the fueling side is ok. I expect it to cost around the 3 to 4k to have this completed and tuned.... Expensive test #2. As like last time will keep you updated but 2nd time round i have learnt a lot so hopefully won't be another let down
