Here are some specs:

“The twin scroll turbocharger concept was developed jointly by Mazda’s Department Five and by Hitachi, and is manufactured by Hitachi having been designated HT18S-2S. It’s turbine-side bearing area is now water-cooled, and the main body is further protected by high temperatures by a dual-skinheat shield. The 1 blade turbine, of impact design, is 64 mm (2.52 inch) in diameter. It’s scroll area, the nry path for exhaust gas, is divided into two passages separated by an integrally cast wall; one, called the secondary scroll, has a trap-door-like gate operated by intake vacuum. The turbine thus has two cross sectional area factors, A being the scroll’s smallest area as used in calculating turbocharger performance characteristics: 6.00 sq. cm (.93 sq. in) for the primary path and 9,48 sq. cm (1.47 sq. in) for the secondary. The other factor is R, the distance between the turbine-shaft center and the center of area A: 59.4 mm (2.34in) for the primary path, 60.4 mm (2.38in) for the secondary. Thus the twin-scroll turbocharger has two A/R ratios: 0.4 for the primary and 1.0 for the primary and secondary combined.”

and my new (old) Engine crane:




Now I just need a engine stand and I'm sorted to redo this bitch one and for all

[Riekert]

So... I came accross this little jem...



Its a twin charged S14 motor

so now I'm thinking.... would this be a good time to do the twin charge thing... mmm...

[DriftZ]

yes

[Riekert]

haha. trying to source as much info about this as I can get...

but not much out there for the SR///

[Draco]

In South Africa....come on man...it will take years and many lives!!!

[Daniel]

Lol, get it running first!... then you can twin charge it

[Riekert]

haha that is very true Draco.

And like daniel said gonna get it running nice and smoothly and then see if it will be at all possible to do it.

Would just love to do it as it would be awesomely unique.... imagine... Sil80 TSi

[Daniel]

I think I know your mindset, I never drive my S13 either and have also thought about twin charging mostly for the sh1ts and giggles.

haha exactly!

but ja... like you said... will get the SR out and sorted. then back in and running first. then I'll start looking into a TSI modification.

oh and Daniel-san... dont you want to sell that T28 of yours?

[Daniel]

Hahaha not really. I'd prefer put it on my car if im honest. But I've contracted terminal lazyness...

comeon..... pleasE I'll get it back to you when I get my new one

[Riekert]

So after alot of procrastination I got to work.... I dropped the sump and pulled piston number one. think it might be the conrod... so replacing it and putting it back it. should hopefully be able to do it over the weekend... so ja...

Oh I also got a nicce new mani for the t3/t4 thats soon gonna land on my door... now I just need to source a wastegate....

[phoenix s14]

good on ja son! do not let another SR die!!!

[Riekert]

So I put the fenders back haha so at least its looking better...

no other progress yet though...
