turbo rebuild question + BEGI RRFPR

Post by Diego_C »

Hello all, I have just bought a complete 745i turbo setup to bolt on to my 628 csi. However I needed to rebuild the turbo, because the turbine wheels had to much play. All went ok but I forgot to take a complete note on the location of the oil feeds. I know that the exhaust side is positioned opposite of the intake side (in line) but what is the position of the oil inline feed? Is there someone who could post a picture of their K27 (745i) turbo so I can use this to complete my rebuild?

Also bought a BEGI RRFPR and know that some guys also have used this type, now my question is, where is the best location to place the BEGI?

Thanks for any information you could help me with.

Hold the turbo in the same position it will be mounted in the car. The oil inlet will be above the oil outlet. The inlet gets the banjo bolt connection and the return gets the little elbow and the clamped hose - if it's anything like the K27 in my Alpina (and it should be).

The RRFPR is probably best mounted to the firewall, near the FPR. If I remember correctly, it will be located in line on the return side, after the FPR. You can locate documentation here: http://www.bellengineering.net/

And +1 for Scottie Sharp's website - it's a killer resource for 745's.
