@lhu1281 Hey, I just spent ages reading your other thread about all the other stuff you've done to your bus, the porsche wheel/brake adaption etc. etc. plus this supercharger project. I salute you sir, your engineering skill/imagination and dedication is an inspiration!
So big update ..... Well just the MAP 4-1 still need to do the fuel vacuum feed ... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Been busy with work but done a few small bits ... And bought a water pump for charge cooler Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Top pic is showing pulley removable side cheek Second pic shows where I tapped the chargecooler water in/out and turned them 90deg so to miss the thermostat operating arm Third pic shows the 4 manifold vac take offs going to a single out to the MAP sensor . The bottom res goes to the fuel pressure regulator Forth pic is a eBay bargain new charge cooler water pump
So does that map sensor now have an input from all 4 inlet manifold runners with a single outlet? How much of a bargain was that water pump? I've been looking into fitting a 1.8t passat engine to my t25 as the wasserboxer is using more coolant and oil than fuel and everyone has said the original donors air to air intercooler won't work as it's impossible to get it into the airstream so I'd need to fit a chargecooler instead.
Yes all 4 manifolds to MAP Water pump was £65 new eBay usually around £150 poorly listed , it's a merc one
I found new charge coolers expensive ,you can get the tube style cheaper ..my Used jag one was £30 but had to mod it . I'm currently looking at rads which is another midfield as I've no idea on size
Subaru makes a nice chargecooler if you can find one in the scrappy. Their intercooler radiator is about the same size so maybe 14x10": I suppose you can't go too big on the radiator. Biggest you can fit in the available space. Theres a fair bit of info on the brickwerks and club 80-90 forums as they are used in their tdi conversions.
@Paul Weeding Thanks it's running a million times better but still playing ..gauge measured 60psi @ 2000rpm and trying to understand what everything does on ms ...
