    BCA was the needle supplied with the 1985 Turbotechnics metro intercooler kit for running 14 psi, that should cover it , great vid!

      Ahh awesome that’s great news. I’d love to have something I don’t have to profile that just swaps into the carb. Thanks stuart! Also been enjoying you new videos.

      You need to have a shroud on your mig torch. If you are using a no gas set up then that's your problem with bad welds

      That’s the most best part of turbo power in a mini it’s really subtle. My screaming N/A motors are less so hahaha

    • @classicminidiy
      @classicminidiy  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      So right! That's the best part, the car can be super mild and chill if you don't wanna drive like a madman and as soon as you want/need the power, downshift and boom off you go.

  • @parentevan

    My first step would be to get that filter installed first. You'll probably notice it run even more lean first. Then needle. Dial it in with the spring and dash.

    Cole some of the problems with your welding is your using flux core wire and you didn’t clean all the oil off the part. You want to clean it with acidtone and let it dry before you weld it.

    Really want to do this on my 998, I don’t want to ditch the motor since she’s a reliable runner. If the bigger motor is easier and more sustainable to boost, I might be compelled that way

    • @classicminidiy

      I know there are lots of people who have turbocharged their 998s with great results. I am not sure what kind of supporting mods you’d need but I’m like 85% sure there are omega forged deep dish pistons for the 998.

      @classicminidiy  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      To be totally frank its night and day. The turbo is far and above faster based on my butt dyno. The torque hits dramatically differently and it feels like there is more room for additional power with more boost.

    Did you see any problems with your chosen brand of AFR gauge? Reviews are all over the place...

    • @classicminidiy
      @classicminidiy  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Jon, I have never had any issues with the X-series AEM gauge but I think the reason reviews are all over the place, is that the O2 sensors are SUPER fragile. Specifically in their wiring. So it's very easy to mess up the sensor during installation or install it improperly. That said, getting a new sensor is as simple as buying a replacement and plugging it in.

      From what I can tell it was just sucking too much and with the fuel pump hole breathing location, it was just GULPING oil.
