ATP 3071r swap how to , lenny gets BT fever too

[rodrigo]

alright guys.... i got a big cup of suck it up in hand and time to do the nasty.

ill try to add as much as i can ....its a bit demoralizing typing all this shit up and linking pics... but i keep telling myself that it may help others... so here we go.

got a great deal from SU Mark on this brand new ATP 3071r iwg













the kit comes with AN oil return line.... quicktap boost source nipple for tapping silicone coupler.... AN rear coolant line that leads into a rubber hose for oem installation and a 2.5 silicone coupler.







to go with this turbo i decided to buy this slug looking piece from cpe... (big inlet)











now lets take a look at the hotside and see what ATP has improved vs the older ATP turbos...(mainly the wg)

heres the flapper open (notice the pivot arm is right up to the end of the wg hole, on older models the hole is smaller and u can tell by looking at the pivot arm in reference with the hole)



heres the machining done to it.... it goes deeper and doesnt end at a wall on the half moon rather a transition like the end of a shovel









if i were to remove material I would perhaps take some from where my finger is blocking to better blend the transition from the exhaust manifold gases flowing into the turbine and side tracking out the wastegate when needed



a more aggressive material removal





thats it for the first post.... ill keep adding as i troll my photbucket

comment or not if u want...doesnt matter people can follow it either way
