I have the GReddy Profec. It works similarly but there is no vent on the solenoid valve. I'm somewhat familiar with the Turbosmart EBC and what you have described is how I would handle the vacuum lines. As for how I ran mine. I tapped the intake manifold for a second barb (4mm) so I wouldn't have to branch off the charge pipe or BOV line and then transition form 6mm to 4mm for the one that goes to the EBC box itself. The line that goes thru the solenoid and to the top of the WG, I teed off the charge pipe line going to the bottom ports of the WGs.

Cool, sounds good. my tuner usually only messes with HKS or GReddy EBCs so hes unfamiliar with the Turbosmart.

I was talking wit RT Tuning, the base map I was sent was meant for the V1 kits with the 2.75 MAF pipes and not the 3" from the 1.5 and 2. I noticed my AFR was sitting anywhere from 14.7 to 16 at idle and in boost was 12.3 after checking for leaks so its too lean for comfort to be in boost so monitor your AFR.

Oil lines:

One hoes goes on the driver side, and the other goes on the passenger side...they are plenty long:

About even with the front sub frame and rear skid plate (sagging in the picture a bit because it is just the one couple and the pipe)

I am really excited about the 6870 turbo. I was worried that it will be too large, but it is not...basically the same outside dimensions as the 6766, but with much higher ceiling.

As most guys are running the FI exhaust, any idea's on how this Motordyne will sound with the V2 kit?

Looks like I need to trim my coupler to the turbo outlet more.

does anyone know what the spark plugs are gapped to? .032?

Anyone else with getting the fittings on top of the turbo to seal? I've had the turbo off twice trying to get it to stop.

Which fittings? The oil feed? If so you journal or ball bearing?

Yeah, the one that goes into the directional.
Ball bearing

I have a minor (and I mean very minor) leak in what I believe is the AN hose to the check valve. Its so minor I stopped caring about it. It barely produces a drip and it never collects since the heats just burns it off immediately.

Yeah it's that one. It leaked about 1\2 quart during my drive to California which was about 2000 miles. It's enough for me to be annoyed with the smell and red line isn't cheap haha

I had a leak last year in the summer. That one was pretty bad. It was one of the hoses. This year I have another leak and I have yet to find out where it is coming from. My guess is that it is from the hose again. I am not sure why it keeps leaking after each winter. I need to upgrade my hoses to higher quality lines.

Probably from contraction with the colder weather.

I'm a bit curious why the feed line needs a check valve. Maybe Sasha could provide some insight on that?

If I remember properly the prototype car smoked. Apparently there is enough residual oil pressure when you turn the car off to flood the turbo and turbo drain reservoir. Some was getting past the seals and obviously burning off. He added the check valve in the feed line to prevent that.

Hmm... doesn't make sense to use a check there then if the purpose is to prevent flow when the car is off cause the check would have to be installed the other way but that would prevent flow to the turbo.

Depends on how your check valve is being used. If it's being used to prevent back flow, then I agree with you. If you are just taking advantage of the spring to shut off flow when there is just the pressure remaining when the car is off then you would put it there.

Is Sasha around anymore?!

I got a PM from him a couple weeks back

I emailed him on june 27 and I haven't gotten a response. I also emailed him last year in july and never got a response back. LOL

I have pm a few times with little response. Must be bzy.

heard from a local here - he is on Vacation. Hope you have a good one Sasha!

I have been on vacation for the last little bit here...kids are done school, we like to get out to some local lakes and do some camping/RV'ing. I try to do this as much as possible during our rather short summer, and when we go, it is in the stick where cell phone coverage is non existent. It is the only way for me to relax to be honest...when I disconnect from everything.

For some reason I did not receive a single email notification from any of the PM's that were sent. Not sure why, I did not change any setting here or on my email. Will look in to that a bit more.

All PM's replied to now though, and if I haven't please resend, as I did not receive anything if you do not get a reply. It also looks like some never got through, according to the posts here.

My only fear, water.:ughdance:

Once you do the install yourself that goes away. You'd have to get water above the subframe to cause any issues. Water splash won't be a problem either since the filter is protected by the undershroud and any minor water is going to evaporate almost immediately with the turbo heat.

I drove the car all day in torrential downpour last Saturday during a Charity car show/rally. Not one issue. Actually I was under the car the next day and the filter was dry.

I was just watching How it's Made and showed the 4c's engine testing. They showed the turbo spooling and glowing bright red. Anyone happen to have a video or picture of the BP turbo glowing?

Be pretty interesting to have a go pro pointed at the turbo while it's on the track lol.

I was thinking of review on a lift or dyno run but a track video slit screen of in cabin showing driver and front screen would defiantly be cool.

YzGyz

Thought about that too but you'd have to be working the car pretty hard to do it. My tuner and I did some stress testing on the dyno(simulating road course and autocross) and didn't see any glowing.

Finally got this installed and now it seems to take me 3-4 tries to get my car to turn over. Has this happened to anyone else? If it matters I am running the base map for now until I break in the new clutch and get tuned.

Might have to get the cold start maps redone by your tuner. I had the same issue.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

did it go away once you got yours tuned?

Yeah. Took a few times just cause we never let it fully cool down when trying to get it dialed in

Just finished another local install, this time a 2015 Nismo:

With this kit I used the Innovate SCG-1 all in one boost/vacuum gauge, EBC, and A/F monitoring with the Galeforce's gauge pod. It turned out great. It is an awesome all in one unit, with a lot of features and a very clean install.

I still have a cold start issue. My turner tuned it, then the first time, I had to give a lot of gas to turn over. I brought her back, he redid the cold start. It's better now but I still have to give a small jab of gas to turn from a cold start. I'll get him to look at it again when i gets a chance.

YzGyz

Sasha, I sent you a email regarding replacement filters any idea where we can get em?

I wonder if that new compressor cover is causing these cold start issues cuz I don't have any. I'm

Not possible...it really doesn't make a difference from that point. The tuner needs to make adjustments on in the IAT and coolant temperature compensation tables.

Replied.

finished up my install. Having starting problems as well with base map. After a sleepless night I've concluded it must be the tune.

I could be wrong.. but I think Sashas base tune was done here in Edmonton.

we are 1200Feet above sea level.. Your in NY.. so basically below sea level.. jk lol but yah most likely need a custom tune.
