Hello ppl, I am due to go 5e soon (hopefully) and I have a K26 turbo possibly from an Audi that was run on one of Danes Starlets.
I am due to get it re-conned soon (hopefully), I'm getting it ceramic coated but I am wonderin if I should get the internals modified instead of just sorting the shaft play? Does anyone know what the best option would be - it is a big turbo for the 1.5 so I do not think that there's any point is increasing the flow(?)
Is it possible to change the journal bearings for ball bearings? - I'm going for mininum spool up and 300 to 350 BHP at 1.5 bar.
Is there an optimum A/R for this, or a turbo/compressor flow map that I could send turbo dynamics to work to? (I've heard they are pretty good for turbo modification?) - Apologies for the long post, rep added for good info as it should be.
Spec list is:
Fully forged 5e
Ported/Polished/Gas Flowed Head
5 Angled Valves
Wiseco Low Comp Ceramic Coated Forged Pistons
Pauter Forged 5E Conrods With ARP Bolts
4AGE ARP Head Bolts
4AGE ARP Crank Bolts
Custom ACL Bearings
TRD 0.6mm Head Gasket (Due to Low Comp Pistons)
Cruise 256/256 Billet Cams
HRF Inner Shim Kit inc Springs, Retainers and Buckets
SARD RRFPR;
SARD 550cc injectors;
High flow fuel pump
Blitz FMIC;
Stainless Mani;
Blitz Nurspec-R Exhaust;
Decat Downpipe;
Magencore 8mm Leads;
Blitz Superspound BOV;
GReddy Trust Induction Kit;
Full Ogura ORC Twin Plate Clutch (including Lightened Flywheel);
Kaaz 1.5 LSD;
GReddy Emanage Blue;
GReddy Profec e-01 Boost Controller;
GReddy Filter Relocation Kit;
Oil Cooler;
Zep Radiator
Cheers
