arrr ...on this one ..




in this thread

http://www.turbominis.co.uk/forums/index.php?p=vt&tid=9000


we put another buttefly between turbo and head to stop vacuum pulling the oil out ..

he then took out the butterfly and it was fine !

so sometimes you can get away with it .

In formula student we often have the issue of pulling oil through the compressor seals, as by regulations the throttle has to be before the compressor (although that may change for next year).

There are two mains ways of solving it, firstly is to machine the compressor housings for different seals, or secondly to run the sump breather into the inlet to reduce the pressure difference between either side of the compressor, as shown by the picture.

(Basically pulls a vacuum in the sump when off throttle, so there is a vacuum either side of the compressor oil seal).

so in that settup does the crank case see the boost pressure as well as vacuum or is there a one way valve in there?

You usually breathe to the other side of the butterfly. I guess it means sealing all other crank case breather sources. Can you get sealed oil caps??

For all those nay Sayers it does work and works good. No smoke on shut off. Only problem is a follower has decided to shit itself.

However it's time to deploy my bestest smug face! hahaha
