Turbo Smoking / Electric Scavenge Pump / Turbo Oil Drain

  • Let's see how this goes. One of the things fighting us this year, is the smoke. And that is a lot of smoke. The turbo is really low, and we were trying to use the external scavenge section off the oil pump. It did not work, so Randy purchased an Earls electric pump. Let's see how this works for stopping the smoke.

    I don't think people realize the potential of this car. It's been in the 4:20s @ 178 MPH! And personally, I can't wait until it wins an event. Randy is such a nice guy, and is the epitome of a patient individual, all the while being such a good friend to TJ and the gang over there at B&K. Success couldn't happen to a better guy, and to see his face, like it looked when he disclosed the 178 mph pass, will warm all of our hearts out here again. Time to throw down. That's one quick FOMOCO.

John's is a small block Chevrolet with good (old, sometimes second-hand, often repaired) parts, and Randy's is a small block Ford with pretty exotic state of the art brand new parts. Randy's does sound better, but they aren't a world apart. It's the high timing that makes them so snappy.

  • @dm9103

    You need to vent the line between the pump and the turbo. Your pump is constantly sucking vacuum past turbo seals now.
    Also a low pressure crack valve in the feed line so that once the car is shut off the remaining oil in the feed line doesn't get past the turbo

  • @rangervapes571

    May want to try adding a small oil reservoir between the turbo and the pump. Turbo gravity feeds oil into the reservoir and the pump scavenges it from the reservoir.

    Also the check valve has helped my cars on the drainback. But I always put it as close to the turbo drain as possible, rather than after the pump. Just to hopefully leave less volume the check valve can't stop

    @garethmcgregor1621 2 года назад

    Hi TJ
    Al from RUclips channel The Skid Factory over here in Australia had a video about low mount turbo kits he does on Subaru BRZ's, he uses a pump very similar to that but also fabricates a 'sump' that fits under the turbo on the oil drain outlet. He said it took a bit of sorting out but it works well on a very low mounted turbo.
    Might be worth a look.

  • @jimandskittum
    @jimandskittum 2 года назад +5

    Here's my two cents. That is a terrible place to put a million dollar turbo. I'm looking at what appears to be a big void right ahead of the front motor plate that would put it out of harm's way if you had a slight front end tap, solve your drain issues, move weight back and shorten your charge pipe. Of course there are probably factors that played in to your decision that I don't know about. Have you considered a catch tank and a float if you are going to pump it back to the engine?
    And since I am critiquing, do you need a mile high intake and long runners on a charged induction setup?

    I don't know guys. I'd probably put the check valve right at the turbo and use the heaviest spring possible that it can suck open. So what if the pump is a little less efficient doing it that way. Everything in the pump and in the line is going to run right back into the turbo

Seems to be the best quality and durability of the electrics I have tried. The low turbo drain thing is always annoying. If it smokes on start up just need to run the pump harder after shut off (more voltage).
