well after getting totally pissed off with the car, part stripping the oil feed hose thread in the turbo core casting and other little dramas, i snuck off to Aintree to have a watch of the other scimitar guys for a bit of relaxation and inspiration. Good day 2 x SS1 turbos, 1 x SST turbo (Crouchie B) and a Silvia! Good to meet ya Fraser, sorry i couldnt stick around longer to chat, but will catch up with ya at another event soon.
I spent all day sunday (my birthday!!) until 12.15am monday morning getting the car ready for the dyno at Emerald in Norfolk. Left home at 5.30 this morning and spent most of the day in the dyno cell with the Legend, Dave Walker. My ecu now has 3 maps, all switchable from the dash and ran fine except for th oil feed leak which Dave temporarily fixed by maching the pipe fitting to utilise the couple of threads that arent shagged in the turbo core.
Ext wastegate worked fine once he'd played with it a bit and didnt spike anything like a normal wastegate, so was worth all the ball ache.
Id like to say a BIG THANKYOU to everyone that has offered advice and pointed me in the right direction with the project, cheesr guys
