RHD Single Turbo Questions
RHD Single Turbo Questions
I have a 2002 FD that I am in the process of putting parts together to go single turbo and had a few questions that I needed answered. I searched the forum but could find what I was looking for due the the model year of the car and it being RHD.
Is it possible to drive the car with the single turbo setup installed on the stock ecu and injectors? Obviously not putting any boost into the motor, just ride around in vacuum? Don't know if the 02' ecu will be looking for something I will have removed when the TT system comes off.
How big of a downpipe can I run? Car is RHD so there is a steering shaft in the way, I guess people who have experience with this can comment. Its a Greddy tubular manifold with a BW S366. I want to go as big as possible, with the car being in the Islands I need to purchase my material ahead of time, so this info would be great to have ahead of time.
I want for the most part a PnP standalone, don't want to rewire the whole car when I have a perfectly good harness in place. Power FC seems to be the only ECU available , does anyone make a jumper harness for an 02' for any of the other major ECU manufacturers (Haltech, Microtech, etc)? The PFC may do the trick though, not sure on if it has limitations as far as supported injector size. I have had the PFC on piston engines before and they didn't like injectors bigger than 1000CC too much....
Thanks a lot for any info you may be able to give me, if this is discussed somewhere else I apologize and a push in the right direction to find it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

We've done several 4" downpipes on RHD setups. You have to shave the stock lim, or run the GZ in addition to ovaling the tubing a little bit for that big a of pipe to fit. However if you built it on the car, I don't really see any problems. 3.5" with an open dumb would probably be plenty for the s366 as long as the engines isn't a BP/PP.
You will want at least 550/1680cc combo under 20psi. Above that boost, or if you have the $$$ 550/2200

Thanks for the info Turblown, question though what is the GZ? I have been looking at the injector dynamics injecs, can the PFC control them? I will keep you guys in mind when its time to purchase them.
