Car booked in at ADF with Freddie this week and installing 2 x new hair dryers as per stock until big Turbo/Turbos come as we want to see if we can run 2 different setups for track use and see what works whilst being able to do some drifting events and drag race the damn thing. All while my wagon is sitting 15 meters away in the garage!:thumbdo:


If you read my post I said it was successful like 10 years ago on the vehicles we tried then. To answer your question the answer is zero for now.

Yeah read it but was just interested if anyone is doing it pre turbo, as it is the easiest install bang for your buck on a meth trunk mount kit. Mine is now working 100% since i moved pump and reservoir to the trunk meaning you will see 10-15% more power than when car was last on the dyno. Can you believe the WW tank rubber bush swelled up due to the interaction of high meth concentration and was not allowing the fluid to pass unrestricted.

You need to organise another dyno day that was awesome, thanks Sherwin!

No bud stock ADF BMW Afrox ones, RB very expensive and we got a Racing Outfit like ADF taking care of our very own BMW race cars and 20-30 customers race cars with all there knowledge, why waste all that time and get it done here the same if not better and have the back-up service and race history with all the data logging these guys have. RB good workmanship though.

Yup RB's are pricey.I'm also looking around for after market turbo's.I'll give them a phone call.I'm smoking when i come to a stop and i can smell oil burning in the zorst.I'm hoping it's not the seals.Some guys say that an occ sorts this out so i'm going to try it out before touching the snails.

Just be careful you dont run a turbo proper and shove all the guts into the motor.....

Really did not think that it would suck that much oil after checking the data i was shocked. Shit cant wait for next week now cos this is getting on my nerves.

Damn! What's the waiting period like on the upgraded turbo's?

None thats the funny thing they have been here for months but the guys are preparing the Afrox BMW cars for Zwartkops this weekend so i have to wate which is understandable as this is there business but next week they in. I have not driven the car for 2 weeks now and took it out last night to the cafe and back but could see the smoke coming out and when i did a check from max level oil it was down to 3/4 still showing ok but was amazed at how much had gone through already. So last drive like this will be to Freddie ADF Motorsport.

Sounds like its leaking quite bad,I'm getting there slowly,lots of smoke as well.Are the new blowers drop in or would you have to change manifold...

Shiraz, they connected. Unlikely, they will invest in upgrading the manifold.
