Why an EGT guage is handy :lol:
-
whooo thats pretty :lol:
peh b ok :lol: might break some kind of record for most f***** turbos in a year :lol:
she not being used now as daily ride using the 300 disco and boy is it slow :shock:
rather me 90 anyday :roll:
as for the guage am looking into it :wink:
thank urself ur 90 isnt a petrol mike :wink: or else the turbo woulda melted b now :wink:
diesels dont glow as much as a petrol
much love :lol: :lol:
ya poof

Sook ma hairy conkers :lol:
-
ull av wait then, gonna take bowt 4 hours 4 me 2 get u in me 90 :lol:

too much fuel on a TDI makes things glow
-
do it liam lol
-
if like me or mike and a few others, have your tdi turned up to the rediculous like only managing 20mpg :shock:
with a full width intercooler, ect ect
when on a run the exhaust gas temp rockets and if gets to high u start to hear funny noises from the old turbo, as it starts do sieze/melt itself together :lol:
hence his dig at me for not having a EGT guage simply cos he got one :roll:
and also he having a dig cos im on me 3rd turbo in 4 month :roll: :roll:
not due to the heat tho :lol:
danny

-
what my 90 ? :roll:
your 90 :) apparently matty just said to her "i want his 90" on msn, despite the fact that if i hadnt read this thread to her, she'd have no bloody clue what he was on about....
-
Its not a case of replacing it and so on its a case of sometimes there somethings you cant afford to break money to replace or not.
-
no its sometimes a case of MATTY GET YOUR HANDS OFF THE XXXXXXXXXX
-
oi
-
in my case i dont care what i break, it gets replaced
even a arb :oops:
-
lol trust you tho danny your made of money
-
i aint :roll:
i never see any, seems to just dissapear onto the 90 b4 i even c it :roll:
-
give you something to light your fag on
does the inter-cooler work or does it not have one :?
-
hell yea,
ya no that intercooler is there :lol: full width, the low down power is unreal
and it throws 35 inch simex with ease even on std 90 gearing :shock:
will nearly tone up altho i dont reccomend it :lol:
only testing them :lol:
its just abit 2 fast in low tho :( so need alter the diff ratio's
still pondering what ratio best tho :roll:
any ideas ? tim ? 4.11 or 4.75
-
I got my manifold on my old two and a quarter series 2a glowing bright red trying to do 70mph then realised that the radiator muff was fully up when the temp went of the scale.... :shock: :shock:
-
:lol:
matt had a experiance of the red stuff last night :lol:
when his 300 overheated and he ran it for 5 mins aswel right in the red :lol:
lucky sod no damage been done
if it was me there b a big gob off ally in the engine bay :roll:
-

No damage been done yet...........
Give it time my young & inexperianced friend 8) :lol: :lol:
-
think it will get damaged then
-
I've seen pictures like this before on development engines, it's not uncommon for them to glow but a bit of air circulation works wonders you know.
-
That's not hot....
You want to see the manifolds and the exhaust on an engine on the test beds at work when we do full load work...
They get that hot you can virtually see through them!!!
On a petrol you just dump more fuel down the exhaust (i.e. run it rich) and/or adjust the ignition timing....
But on a diesel it's the other way around... more fuel = higher temps (thus EGT)
Anything above 800 degrees on a Tdi or Td5 and you start getting towards the material limits for the cast manifold (hence why you get warped manifolds on badly tuned diesels)... much more than this and you will also find the fins on the exhaust side of the turbo will start to break up, and in extreme cases so will the exhaust valves!!
In saying that, in the short term, and for short blasts you will get away with higher temps.... I've known 300Tdi's that peak at 1200 degrees!!

on hill climbs ect ian ?
im sure on a 2 mile run at that temp, the next morning its gonna b goosed :roll:
ive just been suffering with the oil pump shaft coming out of place and getting no lube another new turbo

all good fun
spare engine and turbo now :lol:
for when things go t**s up again

where i used to work they had a rolls royce genarator set at full chat in the dark you could see the shadow of the pistons going up and down :shock: :shock:
-
now i bet that looked good
a 27kva diesel gen does that aswel in the dark after its been running all day :lol:
might have a dodge over the farm tomorrow night and take a piccy and one of my 90 after a thrash :lol:
see how much it scares me :shock:

standard mobby cam,1.2 mega pixle on normal settings
on night mode it was too dark :lol:

After a long, hard motoway burn the Audi used to glow like that. Who needs under-car chav lights. New exhaust setup all I get is a dull red glow now.
Had a pic of a cossie being hammered somewhere.
(http://www.max-boost.co.uk/max-boost/images/glowing_turbo.jpg) Yes, thats WHITE hot :)
