nope, never drove without a filter
I had a rubber ring to fit a 3" silicone hose into the 2.5" compressor inlet flange...
it was one of the universal filter adapters

I'd flush the engine if I were you, fresh oil/oilfilter. Wouldn't want any shrapnell in the engine

how do you think it could compromise the engine oil?


last log I did, this was a six gear pull, open loop ebc, target: 200 kPa (14.5 psi)
maximum boost is at 3295 rpm

Looks like you have a huge knock event at the end of the log.

it's around 37% knock (if 100% is 1023), I have to tune that area because I never used it with the chrubo

The turbo is in, and it pulls strong.
Even the 3.636 spins the first three gears (time for a good set of tires)

This evening I made some manifold shield and an airbox whith alluminium sheet

That's pretty.
Are you surprising any other sports car owners over there yet?

yesterday night I heared something fall out of something in the differential region, and it started an awful noise

it's like a whistle that follows the speed, and it's present only when I apply torque (a little bit, a lot... didn't change)

About a couple mounths ago the same whistle started from the primary shaft of the gearbox, this noise follows rpm's...

What the hell it's happening?
From yesterday to today the diff noise is even worst

I'm seriously think to sell it...

Seems like it's a bad bearing.
The worst thing is that noone can change it.

Another bad thing: this turbo is too little.
Wastegate shut: 250+ kpa at 4000 rpm and down to 220 at redline.
No huge power gain compared to 200 kpa
