Re: High volume oil pump for series 2

Yep agreed on the pump volume helping, it just seems strange how low your pressure is at soak.
Am I correct in assuming you have an unrestricted -4 hose feeding the turbo with oil?
Is the center assembly coolant cooled?
What's the return line size?
What's your total oil system volume?
Do you ...

Re: High volume oil pump for series 2

Interesting...

What's your oil temp at full soak? In the sump or in the valley? What weight oil are you using?

Re: High volume oil pump for series 2

Okay, let's back up because I'm sure I missed somthing.

Why is it felt that more volume is needed?

How much volume is needed? Or felt needed. At 750rpm, at 2500rpm, at 6500 rpm?

What volume per rev did you calculate from the current pump?

I would have looked the math models before I left work ...

Re: High volume oil pump for series 2

They can cost that much, but there are ones that are much cheaper. Modifying the front cover seems like a lot of work for minimal gain. Especially if you aux feeds for a turbo(s) or spring oilers. Having the ability to get the exact pump section size would be the benefit.

Re: High volume oil pump for series 2

Why not just use a single stage external pump? And do away with the front cover pump all together?

Re: Swapping supercharged motor into sse

I've done something very similar to this with my 96. Take a look at my builds. That said, try to stay with other h car ecus as it will be easier. If you are going to mod the l67, try to find a 98 or 99 4t65ed-hd.

This will drasticly save headaches on wiring. Then it's just a couple of pins to move ...

Re: 96 SE Gen V Supercharging 4T65 Project

One Step closer to driving. Now sitting on GXP wheels with 245 wide tires. Its still riding a little high in these pictures as the suspension needs to be settled yet. The suspension should drop roughly another 19mm from this photo.

Re: 96 SE Gen V Supercharging 4T65 Project

Somw of you may remember that I was working a true dual exhaust system for this car. I actual started to mock-up of it last fall to save me time this spring on fabricating it. Well, the exhaust system is done and hung in the car.

Re: 96 SE Gen V Supercharging 4T65 Project

We made multiple pulls in the two days on the dyno. I started off using a 3.8 pulley and slowly worked my way down to the 3.5. However, I may back this off to a 3.6 to keep boost done a bit for street driving. Boost at higher rpm was at first a problem. At first the engine did not like going lower ...

I would have to check with the body and safety people, but I am 90% positive that there is an FMVSS standard for this. Internally its a no no to put the exhaust on the same side as the driver and its a no no to have the filler on the same side as the exhaust. At least that is in the states...

Re: 96 SE Gen V Supercharging 4T65 Project

The ones in the pictures are modified zzp's. I have a custom set that i am finishing up now that will actually be used in the car. The final ones are stepped from 1.62 to 1.75 to 1.88. And have a 2.5 merged type collector.
