HellShadow70 Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 What a PITA . Yesterday i was doing the Bnr turbo install and 2 things happened, the inlet hose broke an the vacuum lines at the turbo are larger than the hoses in the car. Please give me some recommendations on a good inlet hose Perrin,avo,Ect. and what do i do with the vacuum lines? Here are some pics of the vf40 rattle, Wastegate Failure. http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=208422&stc=1&thumb=1&d=1431279411 http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=208423&stc=1&thumb=1&d=1431279411 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fahr_side Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I use the Perrin one... good fit and quality. The vacuum hoses... warm them in hot water and try again to cram them over the nipples. The wastegates on the VF-40 do tend to do that. The roll pin fails and the whole spindle moves out of place and jams. How is the shaft play? Obligatory '[URL="http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/2008-gh8-238668.html?t=238668"]build thread[/URL]' Increased capacity to 2.7 liters, still turbo, but no longer need spark plugs.

SBT Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 They should have 6mm or 6.5mm silicone line. That's what I'm using. - Pro amore Dei et patriam et populum - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the vacuum line, I ordered some from Amazon. Turbo went in yesterday and I have a coolant leak at the turbo some were. Gonna have to pull that bitch out again. And don't get me started on the Perrin inlet hose. :soap_box: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellShadow70 Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Towed the car back home from my friends shop, he has no time to fix my car at this time and neither do I. so I guess it will be done next month or when ever God wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elgin.owens Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Hey M Sprank what's up with that spoolinator? We're you testing it on a LGT and if so how was the fitment? I've got a FMIC so mostly I'm just concerned about the DP and 3" inlet tube fitment. Any more info you can provide on your setup? Killer-B told me they weren't aware of anyone who was using it on a LGT, so that made me nervous, as I don't want to be the guinea pig! Thinking I really like the dyno graphs you posted. I'd like to know which turbo you went with? I've seen some graphs from Killer-B posted on nasioc for the GTX3067R and they had great spool-up. Thinking I may want a touch more power so I might go with the GTX3071R, but I'm not sure how much that will push peak boost to the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 I have not yet tested on an LGT. Plan (was) to use my SpecB to test, but it is far from road worthy. We have the kit on a 06 STi. I do not foresee fitment issues on an LGT. Not once the air pump system is deleted and the bel housing is modded (slight grinding for clearance). Spool comes on FAST. With a GTX3071 I would anticipate 20+ psi by 2800rpm. Awesome thing about the spoolinator kit is that you dont really move the power band to the right, you just make it wider, like 3000rpm to redline.

HellShadow70 Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Yesterday I took everything apart tmic, dp, Turbo, uppipe, uppipe studs, EBCS. Today After a beautiful day working on and under the car, I'm again disappointed. The 16g turbo from BNR is leaking coolant. Installed new oil return hose, new coolant bolts with washers, new bottom coolant hose, 3 new flange bolts, GS EBCS with 1/4" and 3/8" adaptors and 2 tees from Turkeylord with new silicone hoses, 3/8" hose, New down pipe to catback bolts.

WTF So you replaced the washers on the coolant banjo bolts? Do you have a washer between the CHRA and the line and between the line and bolt head on each banjo? Did you torque the banjo bolts down properly? The only place CHRAs are likely to leak coolant is at the actual inlet and outlet banjo locations.
