That's the oil temperature sensor for the OEM oil temp gauge. There's not enough pressure in the pan to feed a turbo.

 

thanks! im a noob to turbo'd cars

 

I really like this design of Chad's. I am not one to get excited about O2 housings and dumps, in general. I never have wanted a dump for my car. Not because I couldn't put up with the noise. I have had an open remote gate on other cars before...so I ain't gun shy. It's just that I never saw a dump, tubular O2, merged DP, etc., or otherwise, that I liked. Well, maybe Ernie's dump, but that's about it.

That being said, I really like Chad's merged O2. It looks so khool. Gotta have one. It's the first design that I ever liked. That's all. Good work!

 

This piece is awesome. Chad accomplished exactly what he wanted with this O2. Solid boost control, picked up a little power, and feels like it picked up a little response.
I agree with Chad's initial impression from our conversation when I picked up the car, there is a small increase in response that kinda feels like switching to a lightweight flywheel. The motor feels a little more responsive. It is def noticeable but a different feeling increase in response than what it picked up from going to the ball bearing BBK-B.
I feel this O2 combined with the BB BBK-B is a great setup and compliment eachother well. There was a lot of work that goes into making one of these and it ain't cheap, but it is a very well designed and beautifully made piece.

Thanks Chad, and Brent (you outdid yourself with this one), and Mark too!

 

Are you going to be able to do back to back testing?

 

i can't wait for vids and dyno

 

I would like to say yes, but it's for later cbrd upgrades. So a back to back with current turbo would be not apples to apples.

 

I built one for my car last year. Fully divided using the JMfab flange. Didn't make as big of a difference as I thought it was going to make but I was on a stock turbo. I think it will really shine on a Red or Black.

 

That's nice looking. Good work! I'd like to see a pic from the flip side of the flange if possible looking inside the housing

 

Nice product you have there. V-band is where it's at!

No problems with creep here ever. Running multiple O2 housings. Even with my current hood dump.

 

I don't have a pic of the inside. I'm interested to see the results that CBRD gets from the testing on the larger turbos. Fully divided and a nice transition which theirs has should work well on the bigger turbos.

 

still got the piece bean? i'd possibly be interested in it buddy!

 

Mr Chad,

Job well done!!! I am impressed with the quality of work and finish...

Yeah I still have it. Been on my car since last year. Unfortunately its not for sale.

 

as mentioned-

most of our design goals centered around the actual angle of the WG tube side and using an appropriate angle to allow the WG gases to exit---

from there is was being properly divided-

ours has a very shallow exit from the flange on both the turbine and WG-

we have had creep issues with quite a few of the o2 housing dumps on various turbo configurations- making it difficult for people to run low boost when they wanted too

3 of these on order already-

thanks everyone-
