xv1000 turbo chopper

The thing that kills Chinese turbos is the machining swarf left in the centre housing at manufacture.
Flushing it out before use would be good insurance.

Sounds just like 80's Italian front forks...

When it does rattle from too much boost, the Manley rods are still here, LOL...

Just be aware they pinged badly on street gas when new.

Ill make sure to blow it out haha I might take you up on that at some point..just have to find pistons that fita when it pops!

I think its had some headwork and wster/meth, cooled charge and retarding the timing with an ignitech tci should hopefully calm it down a little

And the majority haven't been balanced properly, or torqued up. So also worth checking DAMHIK

No idea how to check the balance, but ill go hulk on its ass with a torque wrench tomorrow.

any other advice will be taken, although I've done pkis t builds before this is a little more complicated considering tje lack of info..

Find a torque setting for the corresponding Jap made turbo and go with that
Balance, no idea, we'd just send it to a bloke like Steve Murch, because he's the bestest.

I really do like the pwm idea, I'm going to look in to that. Toyota started using a similar thing with switched PWM on the 1UZFE and 1/2JZ motors, running a 75% duty 12v signal to the pump on low throttle positions, then run 12v on start and higher load. (their pwm units fuck out left right and center but "only" cost $300 from Toyota)

Cool, where are the other pics? frame? wheels? etc....
