RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Piggy - 06-09-2014

Yeah I expected it monday!! Nice one bash Smile


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - bashbarnard - 06-09-2014

No problem man. It was an extra 60p to get it there sooner so thought f**k it you only live once. Big spender me.


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Piggy - 06-09-2014

lol

Another thumbs up for Yodel.

Hope it sorts my noise issues...unlikely with my luck but maybe at least it will charge again!


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Dum-Dum - 06-09-2014

So you got it fitted yet?


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Piggy - 06-09-2014

Sodd off. Im caring for my darlin wife. Had an op late thursday. She on bed rest. May get to it tomorrow


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Dum-Dum - 06-09-2014

Well if shes in bed then she cant see how much time your spending on the car, just tell her your out doing some work on in the garden


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Piggy - 06-09-2014

Yea...and fours later Im covered in grease, not grass, and the garden is still a mess!!?

And I feel bad for lying!?

Doing my taxes so Im happy


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Dum-Dum - 06-09-2014

No, working IN the garden. Move car to the garden or claim the drive is your front garden and then your working in the garden, its just not gardening your doing.

RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - ash23 - 06-09-2014

its only half hour hob to fit it ! Tongue plus then you'll get to see if it fixes you backfeeding issue Smile


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Piggy - 06-09-2014

Not quite half hour....remember its bolted to a HUGE 2.1 block!! not much access!


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Dum-Dum - 06-09-2014

He means remember its seized to a huge 2.1 block


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - cully - 06-09-2014

are we there yet?


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Piggy - 06-09-2014

Also gota get the jack under the sill...that takes time!

Tax return done though...no tax bill again Smile Smile Smile


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Piggy - 07-09-2014

Alternator in. Huge improvement in voltage!!

No change to annoying earth issue on arduino though Sad

My manifold weld has also cracked Sad time to whip it off and repair it and make a take off for emp at same time i guess.

Got on with starting to fit new suspension instead.... Wink Off now to get the crashed 206 Xsi


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - padge - 07-09-2014

alright piggy?

any recent engine bay pics of this? hows it go mate in comparison to the gt2056?


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Piggy - 08-09-2014

Blown turbo oil seal on hotside. Sad absolutely gutted.

Ordered another GTB. Hoping I can get the blown one repaired to make some money back.

Repaired manifold, improved strength and added EMP take off.

Sneaky pic...

Ahhhhh BLOODY FORUM TURNING MY PHOTOS AROUND Angry Angry Angry


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Dum-Dum - 08-09-2014

Well that sucks, welcome to the club of destroying a VNT within a few weeks of fitting it though.

With my now spare turbo I'm going to look into the cost of having a second housing ported


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Piggy - 08-09-2014

Its a 240/250bhp turbo...im happy with it so long as it keeps its oil where it should be!


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - zx_volcane - 08-09-2014

Shame that, why do you think its blown a seal?


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - Piggy - 08-09-2014

No idea...

Open to suggestions!


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - cully - 08-09-2014

to high pressure oil feed? dose it need a restriction in the feed line


RE: 2.1 GTd...GTb...Arduino gremlin hunting - ozonehostile - 09-09-2014

How's you manifold supported?

Theres garretts restrictor still in position

I assume you dont think this caused the oil seal failure....

But not enough really. Was guna add more this week ironically.

im thinking more of what caused the manifold to crack?

how is the turbo supported on yours? I can't remember from last time I looked


RE: 2.1GTd...likes to break stuff - Piggy - 09-09-2014

Theres a bracket from under the manifold flange to top of gearbox.
Not enough though. Going to beef it up, add another and add a horizontal support too

(plus on inspection the welds were crap.crappy cheap ebay welder)


RE: 2.1GTd...likes to break stuff - Piggy - 09-09-2014

this thing is getting me annoyed.

I should be spending time getting to grips with the arduino...but she just keeps draining me of time and money with it keep breaking stuff Sad

I know I moan, but nothing is going well in all areas of life right now...and this is just doing my nut. I dont cut corners or skimp when I do a job....yet it seems to get me no where. Others lash it together and it all bloody works for them! Here, and in life.

sucks robotic balls.

Sorry Sad

TBF I have had alot of practice of lashing stuff together so am kinda an expert in doing it to a level where it works, like a hugely over engineered lash up.


RE: 2.1GTd...likes to break stuff - Piggy - 09-09-2014

haha, it wasnt directly at you pal....if you wana group yourself in it fair enough...but your turbo blew too...so it didnt exactly go well for ya!

that paddy lad for instance....just lashed it together with random bits...and it works! me, this broke, that broke, then I find also this has broke. Sad


RE: 2.1GTd...likes to break stuff - bashbarnard - 09-09-2014

I find at work if you bodge a customers car to get them by untill the bit comes in for repair. Its will last forever and they never come back. If you do it on your own car two miles down the road it dies and your on the push bike. Sods law.
Its sods law youve put the effort in and its blew the seal. Dont let it get to you. We all have it.
