Is This Turbo I Bought Absolutely No Good?
 
lol, couldnt think of what to call the thread. I just bought this turbo from mahcivic, its a T3 .60/.63


Just edited this because I was just told this snail is completel garbage, because of the shaft play. If you look at the turbo the play Im talking about is from the right side to the left side. Wanna know if I just got screwed, thanks

YOUVE BEEN PARTIALLY HEALED CADET! Ill take the other 2 pics now, deleted them off of the cam after making the thread

Re:Who Can Name All The Pieces On The Turbo Game....
 
In the first pic, the gold fitting on the compressor housing (just one) is used to run a vacuum line to your wastegate, internal or external. The other two brass fittings on the center of the turbo look like they're for coolant lines. The blue fitting will be your oil inlet.

In the second pic, you can use a downpipe flange that only has the hole for the turbine outlet, and block off the other (internal wastegate). Or you can just get the flapper welded closed. Either way. Then you'll need to have a flange welded to your manifold to connect an external wg.

Third pic is your oil return.

Fourth pic, yes, that's what you connect the filter to... and if you don't have a gasket for connecting it to the compressor housing, at least use some gasket material.

Re:Who Can Name All The Pieces On The Turbo Game....
 
In the third pic I was refering to the flange looking type thing, not the brass connector. Which were you talking about when you said oil return

Ya Id easily make a gasket for the intake connector

Kind of cool that I actually have the turbo now and can figure out exactly how everything works

The oil return is in the third pic. It is the squarish hole with two tapped holes on both sides.

Re:Who Can Name All The Pieces On The Turbo Game....
 
Ya that was in there guys, wasnt thinking perfect last night.

What I wanted to ask is why it was so small, like if peopl use 2.5" piping off of it, isnt it quite the bottleneck?

mahcivic 10-03-2004 11:38 AM

Re:Who Can Name All The Pieces On The Turbo Game....
 
thats how it came. go get a 2.5 inch to 1.5 inch reducer for it. thats what i was had so i could hook it up to my 2.5 inch intercooler piping. so you like the turbo? sweet glad i could help someone out :) i want to see some good numbers with it :P

W O T 10-03-2004 11:43 AM

Re:Who Can Name All The Pieces On The Turbo Game....
 
lol buddy you have no idea the plans Ive got for it.

I was worried about the play in it though, like how much I can move it from hotside to cold side, anyone thnk I should be concerned about this?

mahcivic 10-03-2004 11:46 AM

Re:Who Can Name All The Pieces On The Turbo Game....

Re:Who Can Name All The Pieces On The Turbo Game....
 
side to side meaning left side of the compressor housing to the right side or compressor to exhaust? which was does it move.

W O T 10-03-2004 12:01 PM

Re:Who Can Name All The Pieces On The Turbo Game....
 
If you look at the first pic, it moves from the left to the right....

You should know, it was in your hands 2 weeks ago

Re:Who Can Name All The Pieces On The Turbo Game....

------- great eh, it has the axial play that thread is talking about and you can even hear it touch metal when you spin it.

Absolutely ------- great, wasnt informed of this or the cracked exhaust housing when I bought it, ------- burned

Yeah you did say that AFTER IT GOT HERE AND I MADE A THREAD ABOUT IT!!

I payed $200 for a rebuilt snail from what I thought was a respected guy around here.

Theres no ------- way in hell you didnt notice this large yellow marking and large crack or hear this thing moving from side to side. Then you say theres nothing you can do about a refund.

I dont have the money in my budget to buy one of these "cartridges" you say I should buy nor do I know itll fix the problem because I read that once the axial has play, the wheel has already done its damagae and the turbo is junk.

I wouldnt want to open this turbo up anyways, I have no experience

Wouldnt mind my name taken out of your sig as well

W O T 10-03-2004 01:29 PM

Re:Is This Turbo I Bought Absolutely No Good?
 
"grab both ends of the shaft and try to move it in and out, axial play. any axial play is terrible for a turbo, if this is enough for the fins to hit the housing the turbo is garbage. usually caused by the thrust bearing/washer grinding on the half moon oil disk, can be cured by a rebuild if the fins havent hit the housing"

mahcivic 10-03-2004 01:35 PM

Re:Is This Turbo I Bought Absolutely No Good?
 
i never said i didnt notice the yellow mark. i said i didnt notice that there was a crack there. you think i was out to screw you over when all i was trying to do was sell a turbo i thought was perfectly fine. if i thought it wasnt worht selling i wouldnt have sold it. do be a ------- cock to me, cause i really have no need to help you out if thats how your gonna act.

Haha, it's funny how you fucked this guy over and now you say you're not going to help him because he's mad about it. What a shitbag. Where is your vouche thread? I'd like to link this thread to it.

mahcivic 10-03-2004 01:43 PM

Re:Is This Turbo I Bought Absolutely No Good?
 
dude stay out of this. i had already made an agreement to help him out.
ebay user name...abranney
all the northeast guys will vouche for me too and all your doing is creating unnesscary noise.

Re:Is This Turbo I Bought Absolutely No Good?
 
You're the one who fucked this guy over and you're the one who called him a "------- cock" because he's pissed off that you sold him a bunk turbo as a "rebuilt" turbo. What do expect? I'm sure you would rather nobody say anything so you can continue to ---- this guy over and not have to give him a refund, but that's not going to happen, shitbag.

mahcivic 10-03-2004 01:48 PM

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and talks like a duck, I'll put damn good money that it's a ------- duck and I'll call that mother fucker out on it if he tries to act like he isn't a duck.

You can't argue ---- in this thread because you lost all credability.
