As titled does a de-filtered turbo normally sound quite "wooosh"y?
I know a few people are running them like this (Mark) so perhaps one of you can reassure me.
Just in the process of eliminating boost leaks from the FMIC install but I'm sure the turbo is making most of the noise now its got no filtration on it?
Cheers!
Im running defilter and the sound is pretty normal, Marks just sounds like a plane taking off

Yeah thats pretty much how mine sounds.
Are you on a FMIC or TMIC?
TMIC, dont really need a FMIC on a gt15 and a lucas haha

Ah. Thats probably why yours sounds quite normal then lol.
Not enough fuel going through and probably doesn't spin up much over 20PSI?
you would be surprised what mine sounds like, huge whooshing noise as soon as i get boost :L
20 psi? pfffft all about 12 psi

Heh, you said it was normal before!
12 psi? Think you got some work to do!
i mean like normal when you defilter
And yeah i know, all in good time
Mine sounds like that as well mate. Sounds like a bloody 747! lol

Thats all right then, just a bit paranoid atm as obviously I've been sorting boost leaks with the FMIC and the turbo kind of over powers the leaks with its wooshing.
My K14 sounded awesome defiltered but going to run TD04 with filter as dont want to drag anything in.
The K14 sounded as if had a valve on on gearchange and if let of a bit quick got the chatter sound everyone goes on about probably why turbo lasted 3 days defiltered haha but defo sounded like a jet
Yeah K14's an T2's pushing over 20 psi will sound like that de-filtered
try a K03 on 28 PSI de-filtered
but yeh, eliminate any leaks around the FMIC route, keep a check on your boost gauge and if all seems dandy; i wouldnt worry too much
I do want to get a filter on, it's just finalizing my FMIC route. I'm not happy with how it is and want to put my 2" 90 from turbo outlet to then run a pipe through the inlet manifold. Only problem is I've just finished sorting leaks so can't be assed to rip it apart straight away!
i found that you get slight more boost when de-filetered as not restrictions so this could help identify boost leaks but they are a PIA as you cant get boost just sat still
Try 30 psi on a td04,,, sounds like a jet!

hopefully will on saturday jake

Meh, I'll get a video later. It's pretty crazy.
Sure my inlet is leaking from each corner too where I replaced the shorter studs for slightly short bolts.

Just got a compression fitting on the block side and used my fitting off my old oil line,
im comfused now haha (doesnt take much) do you know the thread on the block? so youve got a banjo end and a female end and a compression fitting into the block which the female end screws onto? dont understand which fitting youve used off old block
sorry for me being so thick today lol
i wanted them to make a hose using the male fitting off original hose going to an elbow with the same thread as banjo bolt into the turbo

No that was my fault I didn't word that the best lol..
On the oil line
Banjo one end.. Compression fitting the other end. Cut up my old oil line and took the bit that threads into the block and attached it to the compression fitting on the oil line.
That make sense? It's hard to explain lol.
How did u attatch it to the compression fitting on oil line lol cant quite get my head round it haha

Cut the old oil line leaving about 2 inches of solid pipe, inserted that into the compression fitting and tightened it up.

Nice on pal they guy didnt av a clue wat i was tryin to ask for mayb he will now haha
45lb being pulled into a T28 at 5 grand sounds pretty epic, that certainly sounded like a monumental boost leak
