Omega General Help / Re: v6 turbo help

« on: 18 July 2011, 18:22:17 »

Hmm, mine was a courtenay conversion and went through 3 bottom ends till we ran it on 20/50 valvoline racing then it held together, as you say the manifolds went forward to the turbo in front of the timing cover where there is plenty of room once you have junked the multiram system which you wont need with a turbo, paddle clutch is sensible as is stand alone management,
you can junk the middle box,s with the turbo as it quietens it down, for info sierra cosworth calipers fit the standard discs, with a small bracket to mount them on, you will need to clearance the inside of the calipers at the back very very slightly, this wll give you 4pot,s on the front and greatly improves the brakes, rears can fit 3.2 vented direct replacement for standard!!
think the pics of my old one are on here somewhere!!
get some pics up of the build!!
and good luck with it !!

some good info there bud so courtenay  have done the v6 conversion what did the quailty of the manifolds look like as that might be an eayser way for me to get one what sort of mods did they do to the bottom end did they change pistons and c/r or was it standad and just bolt a turbo on and try to map around it ive looked for pics but couldnt find any is there any chance you could post some up if you still got them what was the over all power at just 6psi also what the the drivablty of it like i bet it pulled very well

thanks for the reply bud i no the 4banger turbo would be easyer and cheaper but i like a challange ive sorted most of the week parts out getting steel rods made for it all going well any way and useing z20let pistons im 99% sure ive found the way to over come the heating prob on 5&6 banks so realy every thing thats left would be just as much hassle as doing a 4banger well in theary lol
