clocking turbo

[highflyin285]

I am curious if anyone has done this, it seems simple but i'm just looking for advice on how to do it, thank you!

There is a video on youtube that shows you the general idea on clocking the turbo...

Hope it helps.

You cant clock the T25 unless you go to a external WGA or make a bracket to hold the current WGA.

you can, You just need to drill and tap new holes in the compressor housing to mount the bracket as I did in this thread: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/show...Is-it-possible-to-Clock-the-stock-Turbo/page2 Piece of cake.

I am going ewg

Basically what I need to do is spin the chra 90 because the way it is right now the oil feed and drain are level with the motor instead of up and down, plus I want to angle the compressor housing downward to shorten the hot pipe

 

[duffbuster243]

The exhaust side is easy, 6 bolts and the heads of the bolts press the housing off as they are coming out. the compressor side is held in place by a large snap ring. You will need a heavy pair of snap ring pliers to pop that sucker off. Some use modified needle nose pliers to get it off.

Do you have any pictures of how you routed the hot pipe?

 

[duffbuster243]

No, I mocked it up but never finished the project.

Here's my own take on it...

hey Jspeed17 can you post more pics of your motor and FMIC, please i want to see the hole routing and configuration.

 

[SeR_Cyclops]

Jspeed, are you just running with only one fan? The one missing is just for the A/C, maybe you don't need it in CT.

Haha, no i have two...i swapped my other slim fan to the front of the condensor to be "blow through", cuz the hot turbo kept burning out the fan motors...lol
AND we definitely need a/c here in CT....90 degrees and 90% humidity???? No thank you. Dry heat in AZ totally different!!!
