has anyone ever fitted a twin scroll setup on a classic?

want to have another play with my car

buying a tig welder so want to get arty on the exhaust

currrently running an andy forrest td05-20g with a knackered actuator and have 340bhp and slightly more torqu i think it is only running about .7 bar i think

im not after much more power i suppose if any just want something to spend a bit of time on making haha

so it got me thinking after reading about the borg warner turbos and that the other day and how they make boost sooner with a true twin scroll setup and just thought if im gonna mess around how i initially thought (by just rotating the standard turbo and changing the pipework) i might aswell change the turbo and fanimold aswell and make it externally gated

not to clued up on the turbos really so wouldnt know what to spec, id just like to have a go and see if it makes any difference as all it will really cost me is a bit of time and a few mandrel bends!

 

Im running or about to once my engine loom is finished a rotated/clocked SC42/46 billet twin scroll in my classic, not externally waste gated but custom up pipe from OEM twin scroll exhaust manifold and custom downpipe

 

is avcs essential with twin scroll?

i might just rotate my turbo...wanted to reverse my inlet for ages to but it just seems like a ball ache and i needed to keep the car mobile

ho[pefully soon though il have my own garage finsihed so will have more time to do pointless stuff to it haha

 

I should have been a bit more clear I'm running a newage spec-c engine in my classic so already has avcs spun the inlet etc etc.

 

looks tidier doesnt it?!

getting a few new tools so wanted to put them to good use

i.e. pipe bender so gonna semi space frame the front end and thinking maybe rs500 intercooler rotated inlet and turbo setup so should help release a few extra ponies and help spool a bit

even if it doesnt it will look pretty iompressive i should think!

 

what power steering pump are you running?

id upload some of mine but i have no decent pics!

still need to do my parallel fuel rail mod aswell haha

i have not touched the car for a bit and having withdrawal symptoms haha

need a new bonnet to as mine flipped up after a launch at curborough sprint track so if anyone has an alloy facelift one available then drop me a line aha

 

Power steering relocation kit from a newage

 

where is the reservoir?

any advantages of doing it other than clearance?

is it a bolt on mod?

 

Isn't the twin scroll part of the compressor housing? So not point trying to make a twin scroll up-pipe without the twin scroll turbo?

 

yes the twin scroll refers to the hot side turbo casting

no need for AVCS per se, as just fitting the full twin scroll set-up will give a general improvement over a single scroll

you will require the headers/up-pipe, turbo, sump & oil pick-up/dipstick and specific down pipe as a "kit" to enable everything to work (presuming your using std JDM parts)

 

Even more needed than i was saying. it's not something you can make yourself really is it lol
