Can't reprogram it. Only options are a stand alone ECU, piggy back, or Unichip, AFAIK. I don't even see Unichip offering anything for the 80 series on their current website though...

The PROM chip is soldered to the ECU board, so you would have to replace it with a socket. Even then you would have to know some things about the source code and I have never seen it published any where.

Quite a few people are already running 10psi with our stock ECU and injectors. Is the fueling ideal, probably not. But it does seem to be a stable reliable setup.
Got a call a few hours ago that the oil pump bushing is oval-ed out and should be addressed. Will meet with him in the AM to talk about it.

Is that the "unobtanium bushing that requires a new block if you can't have one made?" It would be nice to have a reliable source of those as these engines wear I would think. Good luck!

And the proper tool to press it in too...

looking forward your rpm for full boost when you get it ready ..
Edit: I like top mounted intercoolers ... just all need to run good hood scoop and electric fan under 'em ..
Thanks for clearing me up on this. I wasn't aware of that.
Hell, if it works, it works. That is one less thing to mess with.
Any idea of how much space this will take up in the vicinity of the manifold, above and forward of it to be exact?
Great work landtank! Can't wait to see the rest of your build.
so why not an compresor .70 with .63 exhaust? sorry for my stupid question
I respectfully disagree. I have had an 80 with a blower for the past 4 years and it has done great off road. No issues on the slow stuff and helps with the hill climbs.
Good thread landtank..

Well, I started this project over three years ago and at that time this is what was available in a T4 and it matched a known good system so it is what I bought. The delay was getting a manifold that I was happy with. Now that I have that I can dust off the other pieces and put them to use.
I should have the engine back this weekend for reassembly.

is not looking forward to you finishing this...I just started a side job last week to fund the Landtank turbo kit as soon as it comes out, how many months at $400 a month will it take for me to fund this behemoth? This waking up at 3:30 A.M. for a turbo is gonna be worth it.
I miss my 12 valve 6BT

ok thank you for your respond LANDTANK! because im thinking to put turbo on mine but i was thinking to buy the .70 .63 (gt35r) you think this will charge to fast and will die to fast or can be good?
BULL what sizes of turbo you have? how many PSI? and what is your AF? thank you

OK now any updates I can't stand it any more! I am going to wet myself!

Right now the block is done and a new oil pump bushing has been pressed in.
The pistons have all been planed to lower the compression ratio a little and the ring grooves are in the process of being machines to eliminate any chances of hot spots from old debris from being a problem.
The crank has been hot tanked and heading for micro polishing.
Both upper and lower intakes have been tanked and bead blasted internally. This helps to keep the fuel atomized.
The head has been completely gone through and is ready to go.
We still need to re-size the rods and balance them.
This stuff takes time.

Yeah, I realize this stuff takes time sorry for being a pest!
I have been chopping at the bit because I have been living vicariously through others right now... Also, knowing this is the direction I plan on going I am looking forward to the end results. However, no more than you I'm sure!I take it you found a satisfactory oil pump bearing replacement or had one machined? Might this be a future source?

Hi Rick,
Looked but can see - what AR is the impeller?
Sorry if I've asked you this before
