As said - progress is progress, it's even better when it's in the right direction!

Keep up the fantastic work

slow but sure man, little jobs always take time. still coming along nicely!


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - Dave - 15-04-2012

This is literally the work of a mad scientist, rolling in all the things of mental frankenstein monster engine and bringing it to life!!! Work of an absolute fricken genius!!!!!!!! Inspiration of the feats that can be achieved when mind is put into gear.

All progress is good progress mate, that looks like a proper solid mount


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - Bananalad - 16-04-2012

Keep up the good work Smile

Are they exhaust stud spacers spacing it out right?

If so - legend.


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - darrenjlobb - 16-04-2012

Yeah, just four xud exhaust spacers, cut in half, welded to the plate as the mounting lugs for the charger, whole thing is made from off cuts etc.

Absolutely EPIC!!! As always..... Big Grin

Looking good Darren, what turbo's you running? whistle


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - Kezzieboy - 16-04-2012

Dunno Dan, he found one in a skip, and grew the other on the farm.


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - darrenjlobb - 16-04-2012

The smaller one is a VNT, 2256V off a bmw motor, and people should recognise the big one by now Wink


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - Atterz - 16-04-2012

GT15s.

This project must be an absolute mind f*ck with all the custom parts on it. Looking forward for more updates

Nice try Dan, hehe, don't think it will be quite that easy

Would be for anyone other than the mad scientist who has created it, he just needs a massive electrical storm to get it started for the first time when he has finished lol


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - Jonny81191 - 16-04-2012

He's working on the lightning conductor as we speak lmao


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - darrenjlobb - 16-04-2012

Starting it is fun, it involves numerous cans of ether, a heatgun down the intake full time, and 2 people.

Its on the mind constantly atm, so many mini sub projects going off at once, all causing issues! Hopefully they will all come together some time soon!


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - mark_airey - 16-04-2012

Starting at camping was entertaining last year lol


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - padge - 16-04-2012

i cant remember how that went? i remember someone getting jump started though lol.

That wasn't Darren's, his was just about 5 mins of motoring over waiting for cylinders to catch one at a time ROFL


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - padge - 16-04-2012

was it dave that needed a jump? or ruans?


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - darrenjlobb - 17-04-2012

Another little video update, including the first start, although there was a camera fail involving the battery going flat on the tripod, and me not realising, so sadly it cut off after priming oil system, but video of it running was taken the day after when I moved it about a bit. Some of you with a well trained ear will probs notice a sticky injector on number two which is causing the thump thump thump you can hear from a single cylinder, which has now been resolved.

Other than that a bit of a boring update really.


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - Toby - 17-04-2012

Sounds rude ninja


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - silverzx - 17-04-2012

The random radio music in the background seems to fit most situations. Tongue


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - ginge191 - 17-04-2012

Fair play with all this - it's good to see that the approach to this project isn't just "That'll do", but when a pump isn't quite performing as you want it, it's removed, stripped back and changed again.

Really impressed mate! keep it up!!

Lol cant really "this'll do" the internal pump pressure if its not right though :p unless you want to wander around with 50hp

Looking good Darren, strange seeing it moving in the video ;D


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - ginge191 - 17-04-2012

lol Dave, you know what I mean... Eg the SC bracket, having supporting lugs to evenly distribute the weight, whereas it "would do" with a single braket but creating a weakness in the cast.


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - lewisdmz - 17-04-2012

Nice progress therr, definitely should organise another SW meet when this is finished.


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - Dan! - 17-04-2012

And you reckon this WONT be finished for FCS? Pull the other one! Youve only got to bolt a couple of turbos on now! lol Big Grin


Good to see it moving under its own power though, great progress imo


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - darrenjlobb - 17-04-2012

Its great progress, but motors out again now, so wont be moving anywhere for a bit.


Re: darrenjlobb's Project M-TDI Twin Turbo Supercharged Derv - Scott - 17-04-2012

lol Love how that's just a standard thing for this car. I need to subscribe to you on youtube actually
