Coming along nicely and looks good in person to mate
Hat of to anyone who isn't afraid to give things a go
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Sparkystav - 13-04-2021
It look great mate. Respect for doing it.
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 17-04-2021
right fitted the v band clamp and all is well but now the waste gate is stuck open and then i tap it and it shuts again mmmmm???
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - toxo - 17-04-2021
Catching or snagging on something?
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 17-04-2021
something its brand new so should be ok had it off and looked spring is stiff and springs back ok nothing inside i can see
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Sparkystav - 17-04-2021
Could be catching. I had the same on my dump valve. Needed a little machining to straighten out.
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Sparkystav - 17-04-2021
Maybe just a bit of emery cloth around the piston to smooth it down a bit.
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 17-04-2021
well its not sticking too much if i can tap it and it shuts i might give it a few burns and see if i can wear it down what ever it is lol
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Sparkystav - 17-04-2021
That's what I mean with the emery. Just to take the edge off.
Jimbobs Lexus IS200 Turbo! - Jimbob-T-Lex - 20-04-2021
well got wastegate sorted so now opening and closing fine!
Ordered a idle control valve so i can get this sorted, also ordered some engine bay dress up bits for when i get round to tidying it all up!
fitted the stainless centre section but its only 2.5" not 3"
lolSprayed my ecu boc lid again so looks a little better lol got that curing in the bedroom
