I find my oil pressure to be on the low side while driving. It never gets higher than 3.7 bar (cold, warm doesn't matter) but usually is between 3 and 3.5. At idle it's between 1.5 and 2 bar (even at 100c) which I think is fine.. The pump has been swapped already, since the old one sometimes dipped ...

Looking very nice and sturdy!

What figures are you planning on? A bored 2.1L will generate a lot of torque!

Very nice!

How high does it rev?

I have seen this pictures before I think! But this option would mean a whole new downpipe (or an extra v-band in the middle) I would prefer to cut off the 3 bolt flange of my current 3" downpipe and weld on a v-band connection.. Looks better and in case of a new turbo (the earlier mentioned GT2...

I'm very interested! A friend of mine has what you described, but you still have a restriction then. You only make the downpipe installation easier (Which is a nice bonus of course) Something like this would be ideal I think: https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/32258377221.html?ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,se...

To remove even more restriction from the exhaust side, I'm looking for a flange/adapter that goes from the 5 bolt patern to 3" v-band. For the older Garrett T3's there the Ultimate wastegate: https://www.atpturbo.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=tp&Product_Code=ATP-WGT-023&am...

Welcome Reier!

I drove your 900 and it handles very well, just get those nasty rattles out and it's perfect in my opinion. :D

2.1 head and intake are on. First impressions are good! No noticable difference offboost, but (coming) onboost the turbo feels a lot more responsive. Especially when you're cruising at say 2500rpms and you press the throttle it will boost almost immediately instead of holding for a second at 0 bar. ...

Oh man, this thread needs to be x-rated so many beautiful pictures and work..

When I went for T5.5 I had type 7's which were nice for the LUCAS system and APC control. But felt a bit short when going to T5. Then I went to type 8's which made it feel like the 7's without T5. But on longer cruises I still found the rpm a bit high (we have highways which are rated at 130kph, so ...

Jörgens type 8.5 yes. Pretty much perfect in revs now. The type 9's were too long and too loud (Still waiting on RBM for a refund, which I'm probably never going to get..) Any downsides to the engine sitting a little too high? I've brought a 2.1 head and intake to the workshop for cleaning and rebui...

Did some shopping over the pond at Eeuro. Since the gearbox is out again this is an easy one to do. https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7826/46151510125_c0b60cd886_k.jpg https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7851/47012890392_6fff08243f_k.jpg Also received this https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7823/46426291114_dac...

As some of the Facebookers might have seen. My Type9 primary is no more. The chains have slipped the small gear.. I don't have pictures yet, not been to the garage yet. I'm waiting for some new parts, including Jörgen Erikssons 8.5 primary. Not as long as the Type9's but a lot more quiet and a prove...

9000 has a knee-shattering key.
