Krzys Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 You can't run antilag on roller bearing turbos though.. It'll be phucked. The shafts aren't built to withstand the pressure, a normal shaft on a non-roller turbo are thicker and tougher as they centralise the propeller unlike the roller bearing ones which are spaceredTurbo got VTEC, yo!You probably wouldn't want to anyway, my understanding is it's designed to spool up quicker anyway? The VV turbos kind of run like that, it's almost like a smaller turbo inside a bigger turbo if you get what I mean.Yeah that makes sense! Sounds cool yet complicated, more to go wrong!

The seals and bearing seals are made from a high temp silicon iirc and silicon and petrol don't mix nor do they like the high amount of pressure being exerted on the shaft which run harder and faster as its basically a hot rotating explosive aerosolOur 180 had antilag on the omex system, had a switch on the dash to turn it on. When it was activated once the police turned up. Armed. Though it was gunshots. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armed police, put the exhaust down or we will shoot you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
