I officially give up the Title and Rank.

I Officially give up Title and Rank of Twin Turbo Frank as of 11:47 pm last night.

My Haltech also decided to give up the fuel pump relay preventing me from achieving satisfation after working from 3pm that afternoon on converting to single turbo!!

Owned. Either way i'm sure i can get a selenoid at work so that's not a huge problem.

Now on to taking my other title back from a certain local happy go lucky VW owner with a hot cam Zoom Zoom.!

Its a stock series 4 turbo I think. Reason is because his twin setup didnt work very well at all.

It will be interesting to see how the car compares to mine. We'll see if a half bridge can make up for lower compression rotors.

8 - 5, so i'll have the evening off. I can give you a ride but unless we get a hold of a laptop there will be no boosting . I will need a seriouse tune from this switch.

ah, cool!

good luck with it

why didn't the twins work for you? I'd think that stock twins in good shape would be pretty fun!

I'm /loving/ my hybrid.. I just need a better WG spring.

I didn't use the stock Twins from FD or Cosmo. I built my own Twin setup with a set of GT turbo's Compressor maps said they'd flow, however i had sever heat issues and very high underhood temps with high EGT's

I figured it would just be easier to install the stock single then try and trouble shoot that garbage.

Also. Last night I installed the new relay and now i have no Power brakes, teh braker booster line is connected. I might have plugged the line accidentally so tonight after work it's coming back off to make sure everything is OK.

A turbo as a compressor side and a turbine side.

So, even if the compressor map checks out, which it never really did, since no one could find one for the actual turbos, you still had something choking the system in a pretty severe way.

Probably the comp sides where too small. But overall, the turbos where not correct for the application...
