Those gauges look great.

And i want to say Thanks to Erickz, he give me some consultations at the start.
And Thanks to guys from Twinmotocycles.nl
Guys from HammerPerformance, they make a good job.
Those gauges look great.
Looks neat, but can you turn right any at all?
How much power are you thinking it will put down?
Wow! Lots of work I see! I bet you are excited to get it cranked up!
A few of questions:
Is the turbo CHRA positioned upside down so the oil supply is fed into the oil drain port of the turbo?
Is that an EGT thermocouple right before the turbo?
What is the part below the AEM water injection controller?
Is there a turbo support bracket coming off of the oil cooler subframe?
I've never heard of a Garrett GT2522 ball bearing turbo. Where did you find it?
Knew it had to be someone on the forum
I plain to get about 180-200HP at wheel
Hi EricZ
Yes, really a lot)
I remember your words in pm - "LOTS of work and EXTREMELY expensive"
"I bet you are excited to get it cranked up!" - ohhh yes, i start the engine 2 days ago and i was really happy.
1. Yes, exactly, i will use scavenge oil pump to help the oil cool the turbocharger.

2. What termocouple? blue one? It is Silicone, that is gearbox breathing hose.
3. That is intake solenoid. I have japanese model. Offcorse i have no mufler control system, but anyway i am still not sure what that solenoid no need me.
4. Here is detailed picture of turbo support:
5. Oh, yes, I was wrong, it is GT2554R
I chose between them, confused in the names.
Cool. A couple of comments and suggestions.
The turbo is mounted to the exhaust which is mounted to the motor. Unless you have a flex coupling in the exhaust between the motor and the turbo, the turbo needs to move with the motor and not be mounted rigid to the subframe. The motor is rubber mounted so it is allowed to move relative to the frame and subframe and, as a result, the exhaust system will crack or break very quickly.
The turbo CHRA always needs to be positioned so the oil inlet is at the top and the oil drain is at the bottom even if you have a scavenge pump. Otherwise oil will leak into the exhaust and intake of the turbo.
It looks like you have water lines hooked up to the turbo too. Where is the radiator mounted to cool the water? You don't need to run water through the turbo, especially since the turbo is as exposed as it is. The electrical demands of an electric oil scavenge pump, water injection pump, and a turbo water cooling pump sounds like it may overload the charging system.
The sensor I was asking about is shown mounted right before the turbine inlet on the turbo. It looks like a compression to 1/8NPT fitting that holds a thermocouple. If it is a thermocouple, it should be mounted much closer to the engine. The exhaust will lose a lot of heat between the cylinder heads and where you mounted the turbo and so any EGT you read near the turbo won't tell you anything useful.
Just trying to help:)
