How to build a dunger twincharged VL (56K die)

[stockymcstock]

Step 1: Buy stock dunger VL for 3 grand

Step 2: Stick on toyota supercharger and see how it goes:

(bottom power line is blower switched off, top power line is blower switched on, boost is 3psi!)

Step 3: Manual conversion

Step 4: Buy one of these:

shit it's not going to fit high-mounted with the blower - dammit!

i know, i'll low-mount it!

sweet, but it's a bit laggy....... i know i'll twincharge it, huzzah!

Goes okay, needs more fuel and a stronger gearbox.

I built this over the course of 2 years, because i had no money (student). Certainly learnt a lot about building engines and welding etc, as i fabricated the exhaust manifolds and blower mounts etc, engineered the drive system and made the piping. i built and toleranced the bottom end and assembled the whole engine after the head was reconditioned by a pro. bought a 2nd hand powerFC and wired it up myself. made a surge tank for the boot and installed a complete new fuel system for the car. made the exhaust dump pipe down to a pre-bought 3 inch system.

So end result is a 300rwhp VL on 9psi, stock cams with a bloody awesome power curve. Car has not been inside a single workshop since i started except for the dyno tune. Home-built engine is going strong and i'm pretty happy with it so far.

Cheers,

Stocky





p.s. here's a picture of my girlfriend's ass to get the thread view count up

Motor??? Turbo??? Blower???? All I saw was arse??? :D

[Madhatr]

Top points for the arse, nice job on the VL, but $3000 is a bit rich isnt it? :D

Ohh, where did you get your eaton from? ebay?

[Grunt]

great thread.
great arse
great use of nokia and beers for size reference

[7MA70]

Nice work! Twin charge is teh cool. Also that ass is teh hotness. Top marks.

[dirtyrex]

I only saw ass and I was once again impressed.

[summoner]

how much of a restriction is the supercharger when the turbo is at full boost? I'm guessing it will limit the amount of airflow in the end.

Nice ass too.

[marcus_h]

New rules on this section: Arse must be shown for each buildup.

[Madhatr]

New rules on this section: Female Arse must be shown for each buildup.

Fixed :gay:

[08ESE]

Goddamn thats an nice ass

VL????

What VL??

[marcus_h]

Fixed :gay:

Woooh, that could have got a bit oxford street

[stockymcstock]

haha, phear my thread view count sneakiness!

the VL cost 3 grand when i bought it, which was 4 years ago. it was a pretty good buy back then as i recall.

bought the M90 from the USA via ebay, it was delivered for about $320 which is substantially cheaper than you can get them here. had to have that drive snout shortened though, as you can see.

nope.

[Madhatr]

Woooh, that could have got a bit oxford street

last thing you want to see is a bit of hairy man crack :huh:

[psssi98]

stocky didn't I hear you say the s/c gets bypassed?

[stockymcstock]

yep. that's what the external gate on the piping there does. it unloads the blower at idle and partial throttle conditions and allows boost to be fed to the engine with direct relation to throttle input. so the further you put your foot down, the more boost you get :)

[ALLMTR]

I love the enginuity (spelling) of everything you've done. You've really put some thought into the setup :thumbs up:

I'm on dialup so looking forward to seeing a55

[Billzilla]

I think an MS Paint diagram of the air path is needed.

Certainly sounded pretty damn good at the party mate.

[psssi98]

Ripped a fair skid too. ;)

[bigmuz]

On 10% throttle I reckon. Fast. Usable. Wank free. All PF cars should be as good as this..

(it's funny that Pete's Supra and Neils car here are kinda opposite ends of the spectrum, but they both do it for me. Viva La Difference!)

[stockymcstock]

orright just because you carnts are too simple to work this out:

[AdrianSSS]

Viva La Difference!

V L Dunger.

Edit: I really have nothing else to add to this thread, apart from being impressed by the bubbling paint on the bonnet, Neill's ghetto workmanship (which transferred across to my last car) and how fucking fast it was with just the GT40. Haven't had a ride with the blower on...yet.

[NISMOgemini]

ass, that is all :P

awasum power for 9 pound :O

[tomic]

Tight.

[dave]

awesome pics

awesome ms paint

awesome arse

you've done very well (and the cars not bad either for a commo)

well done on building it up as a student , legendary stuff

[stockymcstock]

sweet gents - it's just about ready for a stronger gearbox and some more boost, then i'll show you how to build a 300rwkw car on very low boost with no lag :)

certainly gets strange looks from people, the noise from the front end is a bit..... suspicious.

[Puff_Datto]

more pics of GF?

[Sturmovik]

Need pics of the GFs dose pipe.

[MR 1JZ]

Does the car dose?

do calaisturbo.net muzzas approve?

*btw tough car mang...please tell me it still has those dicky hubcaps*

[10sec_rx7]

how good is a RB25/30,

too damm good!!

awesome setup mate, well done

[stockymcstock]

yep still has hubcaps, doesn't "dose" but makes other whacky noises to make up for it. the din from the front end at full bore is truly astonishing, i like to say it's "deafeningly awesome"

no more pics of GF, that one will have to sustain you all through your gruelling masturbation sessions.

[GT R31]

More pics of the blower/wastegate setup please :D

Also, is that a JD Custom plenum? IF so, didnt the have some issues with melting pistons?

[stockymcstock]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v108/stanaz01/SV100537.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v108/stanaz01/IMG_1118.jpg

yeah it's a JD one, there was some conjecture about his old design being dodgy and causing rear cylinders to run heaps lean, but he rectified this with a revision of the design. i have one of his new design ones. pretty happy with it so far, except for issues with clearance of the IAC valve. i had to relocated it to the side of the plenum because it was hitting things at the rear.

[tripper]

you still got this, if so how is it holding up to the twin charge

[Tensop]

more pics of gf's ass required to prove projects long term sustainability

[stockymcstock]

still got it, had the turbo-blower connecting pipe re-done by a professional so it actually fits properly not, also have put some of that flexible ACL shielding stuff over the manifold so the paint on the bonnet doesn't catch fire as much. still going strong...... i have the R33 gearbox in my garage, just haven't had time or *gasp* motivation to put it in and re-tune the thing for more power yet. I really should get off my ass and finish this car hey.....

[MR 1JZ]

I really should get off my ass and finish this car hey.....

or at least take skid pics and post them here

[DATZED]

and more pics (of girlfriend or/and car).

[OKE020]

yeah need to verify the arse has held up well during the 2 year duration of this thread :)

Cool setup

[flopper]

more arse!

p.s. the car is cool and we need more pics of that too

[brett_1gcelica]

looking at the pics.... you modified the M90 snout yourself??

i think i will need to do the same due to clearance issues of starter motor.

more details/pics please :)

[stockymcstock]

the arse has actually improved over time, much like a fine claret actually. it truly is magnificent to behold.

brett i had the snout shortened by a local machinist here, i don't have access to a lathe, nor the skills to use it. it wasn't that hard, and we were able to retain both of the races inside (only just!). you can get zero length drive snouts for them but CAPA wants like 600 bucks. maybe search around american sites for cheaper ones, these blowers are a dime a dozen over there. the machining cost me 200 bucks all up, so if you could get a nicer off-the-shelf job for 300-400 you'd be laughing.

[sketchypiMp]

Fark that is seriously impressive on all accounts (project, power, ghetto home built skillz and woman bot bot).

Give yourself a pat on the back my friend. I would actually like to hear this thing at some stage.

[stockymcstock]

you don't want to hear it, trust me. if you boost it in a tunnel it makes your ears bleed if the window is down. see the gilmer drive is loud, the turbo is louder, the blower is even louder than that and then there's a 60mm wastegate with an open path to the ground. because the turbo's only producing like 2psi, it vents massive amounts of gas on full noise......... yeah it's pretty loud

[stockymcstock]

but having said that, it's fucking hilarious to drive. some of the looks you get are awesome. even had a guy in an SR-powered datto come up to me at a set of lights and his mate leaned out the window

'dude wtf is there something wrong with your car?'

'nah, she's running sweet, why?'

'sounds like the gearbox or something is fucked, its making shitloads of whining noises'

'oh yeah don't worry that's the supercharger'

'..........'

[sketchypiMp]

So its anti social, fast and looks like a shit tin? Thats at least fifteen awesomes.

[MR 1JZ]

video please

please

[stockymcstock]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzRpz9c-t_o

edit: you will note that it accelerates at virtually the same rate even when it's not on full boost. great engine to drive.

[sketchypiMp]

That sounds like nothing I have ever heard.

Fark.

[kingae86]

vl is schmick that arse is sensational! ride looks good mate keep up the good work!

[MR 1JZ]

YES!

that is sweet as dude...I cant liken that noise to anything...except maybe the gates of hell actually opening

more boost

do it

do it now

[Aloysious]

10 kinds of awesome right there

[karl_2ltGC]

Thats damn sweet. Fukn woosh and supercharger whine :)

I feel the urge to supercharge something....
