For shits and giggles here's a rolling shot of my car enroute to shop.

Motor is almost out. Being built by Mr. crazyass(hole)317.

[pipe7284]

Lovely, almost like my set up. POst pics of the progress.

[317ssayzarc]

Oh so now I'm an asshole?

That's it, I'm pissing in the gas tank [evilmad]

[7speed]

this will decimate all ...... good luck man

[JumboBlack1.8]

Can't wait til I drop my car off at Jake's for a build......*sigh*.....good luck man. Should be a nice setup

[quattro16]

Nice setup can't wait for more pics!!


P.S. Can greg tune a 2001 Unitronic?

[pac1085]

Hmm, I wonder if those 870's will support the power level you're looking for on E85...

[317ssayzarc]

Hmm, I wonder if those 870's will support the power level you're looking for on E85...

Yea me too... I was thinking of the new Bosch 1000cc high-Z injectors, they work awesome on my car [up]

[317ssayzarc]

Nice setup can't wait for more pics!!


P.S. Can greg tune a 2001 Unitronic?

He can tune any 1.8T with ME7 [up]

[Don Supreme]

not on e85!

So you went with the 3076 after all huh?

[Militant-Grunt]

not on e85!

So you went with the 3076 after all huh?

Heh, yeah, I came a bit short for 2.0 35r like I wanted to, there's always next Christmas.

Over the course of the year ill throw in agressive cams. I'll also be running Devils Own meth right off the bat.

[lowandslow4now]

Nice it looks like there are going to be a few BT, BAT turbos runnig around the northeast this year good luck with the build I might do a thread if mine ever gets done.lol

[Militant-Grunt]

Motor is disassembled, head is almost done. Parts are coming in left and right =D.

[317ssayzarc]

Havent been getting correct parts (look at the t belt in that pic) and my car broke down on the way to the shop today... Good times [down]

[killa]

And i thought that you wanted me to help you with your build.
Less work for me lol

[b5a4gt28]

Whats the expected powers levels? I am going to do almost the same exact setup as you but with some cams. Still debating w/m...

[f15046]

NIce. I will be doing a setup using the same turbo, manifold, and wastegate. I might go to a 2.0 but I haven't decided yet.

[Militant-Grunt]

And i thought that you wanted me to help you with your build.

I had a more stringent budget than I thought and Jake was able to take care of me.

Didn't realize the cam gears on the heads are significantly different to the point where the tensioner doesn't align properly.

Still some work left almost done. I'll have plenty of pics upon completion.

[Nebone]

Nice that you sorted the issue out. Once I get back I might get an AEB head for my stock AWM motor. I wonder if there's no issues running that block/head combination on just K03 tuning.

[Militant-Grunt]

Going up to get my car today. Will have pics up tonight or tomorrow =D.

[Militant-Grunt]

Car is done =). All that's left now is tuning process. Pics in a few days when Im not lazy.

SSP's base map is amazing, drove the car 170 miles from RI to NY, idle is damn near perfect. No misfires no nothing. Theres a throttle cut in place for motor's break in sake [:D]

Compression on the motor before I left RI was. 185 180 180 180.

Thanks to Jake and Ryan for working their asses off to get the car done quickly.

[pipe7284]

congrats, cant wait to drive my 1.9 gt30r on SSP tuning.

[Don Supreme]

What ended up being the solution to those "wires" ?

[Militant-Grunt]

What ended being the solution to those "wires" ?

Unplugging them, taping them off, and disconnecting the airbag igniter under the pass seat for now, until I get to figure out on my own where those wires go. Don't want to take any chances.

[Don Supreme]

Are they related to the airbag igniter?

[mike-2ptzero]

Unplugging them, taping them off, and disconnecting the airbag igniter under the pass seat for now, until I get to figure out on my own where those wires go. Don't want to take any chances.

Well if the car is running with them unplugged they must not be all that important.[>_<]

[AudiA4_20T]

he could be playing "jack-in-the-box" with his airbags lol

[mike-2ptzero]

he could be playing "jack-in-the-box" with his airbags lol

LOL, but not really. It isn't like the sensors are connected directly to the air bags and the module shuts off the sensor that is not working so that it doesn't cause the air bags to go off for no reason while you are driving.

[Seerlah]

Good stuff [up]. And not to bring a good thread down, but you should def invest in some type of anti-theft device. You don't want your car being stolen now that you have a BT, or ever again as a matter of fact.

[Militant-Grunt]

LOL, but not really. It isn't like the sensors are connected directly to the air bags and the module shuts off the sensor that is not working so that it doesn't cause the air bags to go off for no reason while you are driving.

Would you assume its safe to plug in the passenger seat cables then?

I guess ill just start the car with a broom stick and a long grabber arm for the key LOL.

Why not tune for 4 bar?.... What size injectors are you running?

[Militant-Grunt]

Why not tune for 4 bar?.... What size injectors are you running?

870cc

[317ssayzarc]

Answer the first part too... I'm curious as well, you do have an 044 pump...

[mike-2ptzero]

870cc

Then you do want to tune at 3 bar since you will have plenty of head room for injector on time and 3 bar will allow you more flow once you start pushing high boost. Only time you want to run higher fuel pressure is when the injectors are maxed out and done have a fuel flow issue or fuel pressure drop issue.

[AudiA4_20T]

Then you do want to tune at 3 bar since you will have plenty of head room for injector on time and 3 bar will allow you more flow once you start pushing high boost. Only time you want to run higher fuel pressure is when the injectors are maxed out and done have a fuel flow issue or fuel pressure drop issue.

agreed, more pressure = more stress

[317ssayzarc]

Eh, bullshit... He will be running race gas and E85, 4 bar for the fucking win

[mike-2ptzero]

Eh, bullshit... He will be running race gas and E85, 4 bar for the fucking win

4 bar isn't going to be any better then 3 bar, fact is that his pump flow rating will be lower if he runs 4 bar base once he hits full boost. Not hard to figure out seeing that the flow rating for pumps all get lower as the pressure goes up. Hell if I could I would run 3 bar all the time even at full boost if possible, but that would mean running HUGE injectors.


http://www.jayracing.com/images/Bosch_044_vs_Walbro_255HP.JPG


3 bar base + 25-30psi = 68.5 - 73.5 psi
4 bar base + 25-30psi = 83 - 88 psi

Lower base means more room before you start seeing a pressure drop issue. Its funny because I always see people increasing their base fuel pressure when they have a pressure drop issue, the funny part is that they are just making the issue worse by making it happen sooner.

[317ssayzarc]

He will push more fuel at 4 bar than 3 bar... Might have a little less flow but it'll still have overall lower duty cycle... He will need all the duty cycle he can get on E85 especially

[mike-2ptzero]

He will push more fuel at 4 bar than 3 bar... Might have a little less flow but it'll still have overall lower duty cycle... He will need all the duty cycle he can get on E85 especially

He will spray more fuel because higher pressure increases the size of the injector by over coming the pressure under the injector in the runner, but that is a bandaid to just running larger injectors.


BTW 4 bar just makes his 870cc injectors 1005cc. So at some point he could just run 1000cc injectors set right around 3 bar.

[317ssayzarc]

Agreed, if anyone is getting a custom tune I suggest the high-z 1000's for any turbo, but Matt's a bitch and won't run them [:p]

[djwimbo]

If I was running >20psi I would not want to be running a 4Bar, but that's me, and I don't want my fuel pressure to ever touch 80psi.
3 Bar + big inj FTW.

Enough about fuel, I'm not the one building or tuning it, so it doesn't make a big difference.

Vids, pics, dyno??

And I'm a little late for it, but if you just unplug the connector for any airbag system, it will neutralize that airbag, and often the entire system. No need to worry if you need to leave it unplugged for a bit.

[317ssayzarc]

I'll leave one more, I gotta go to work...

Dan, boobies...

Matt, nothing for you...

Mike, nice ninja edit but I beat you to it [:p]...

Its not necessary as of right now! If I have problems with e85 only then will I start messing about. For now I need to worry about the car being tuned for 93.

Driving around with the front bumper off is fun, gets a lot of attention. Friday I get the piping fixed up. I'll try to have some pics, but it is raining / snowing as of now..

[sean1.8t]

so how's the SSP tune working out for you? by the looks of your sig it's doing quite well. you ever get any dyno numbers or plan on hitting the track?

[Militant-Grunt]

The car pulls hard, I know it has to be around the 400awhp range seeing that I pulled hard on a EVO that claimed he was putting down 370wheel.

Its smooth, its very nice tune, that and I get constant revision.


Now because of this..

Well funny thing is that my exhaust wheel was pretty chewed up most likely for years and that thing had to be out of balance a bit. But yes you dont want to screw up the rest of the turbo because then it cant be upgraded by FP and this means spending another $1400+ on another GT3076r or $1700 on a HTA.

I used to live in Manhattan, its not as bad as you're making it out to be, in the past year they have repaved a good 70% of the roads in Manhattan. Its the outer boroughs that are fairly bad, just need to be careful and drive slowly. (Which I don't do and my car is fine anyway)

[Militant-Grunt]

Well, like I said, its better if you contact him directly and talk to him about your set up and what he can do to help you out. His name is Greg.

2001S4NY is his contact. And the best way to do it is to drop of your car for a week or two. He drives the car on a daily basis tuning the car everyday. Currently he's tuning a stock turbo B6, the thing stomps on a APR chipped 6spd 2.0T A4 with exhaust and intake lol. While the B6 has essentially the same mods. Best part is, its not fully complete yet.

Greg's tunes are a no compromise balls out tune tailored to your car, not off the shelf software that doesn't do the job correctly.

[pipe7284]

^^^to bad SSP tuning is too far from FL, we are gonna try and tune my car via online, phone, and usps...lol...sounds like fun

[wrench]

[Militant-Grunt]

Its in. First impressions. It kicks way harder than the old turbo did but its kicking harder at lower boost as well. Also, it no longer sounds like a jet, very quiet, cannot hear the spool, even with the windows down, at higher RPM's you can slightly, but before not at all. The earlier spool is immediately noticeable, I was hitting 20psi 500-700rpms earlier

Install was smooth, I just had to re-clock the turbo in order to align with the intercooler piping. They also used different bolts on the exhaust side of the turbo, the clearance on the coolant pipes is tight.

Started up the car, there was no air in the coolant, (THANK GOD) But after a quick drive I noticed that some oil is sweating out of the brass oil feed fitting. Gotta put some Teflon tape. It got better once I got home, I guess it just needs to go through a few heat cycles to re expand.

Also while the car was down I added a few goodies. I wrapped by trim in CF cloth. Painted my wheels and calipers. Painted my grill surround. I installed Devils Own Meth injection kit, and a Greddy Profec B Spec II.

I'll have a dedicated thread / pics soon.

[HTA A4]

Wow.. I can't believe it's quieter than the regular 76R... I can't wait to get my car up and running again! Thanks for the feedback on it!

Started up the car, there was no air in the coolant, (THANK GOD) But after a quick drive I noticed that some oil is sweating out of the brass oil feed fitting. Gotta put some Teflon tape. It got better once I got home, I guess it just needs to go through a few heat cycles to re expand.

Also while the car was down I added a few goodies. I wrapped by trim in CF cloth. Painted my wheels and calipers. Painted my grill surround. I installed Devils Own Meth injection kit, and a Greddy Profec B Spec II.

I'll have a dedicated thread / pics soon.


Cool, glad to see your happy with the new turbo. Now get some vids so we can all see.
