    ABOUT PAPADAKIS RACING:
    The Papadakis Racing team began drifting in 2004 and is the most winning team in Formula Drift history, earning the 2015 title with driver Fredric Aasbo, as well as back­to­ back championship titles with driver Tanner Foust in 2007 and 2008. The Rockstar Energy Drink / Nexen Tire Toyota Corolla Hatchback is the latest competition build from the Hawthorne, California, based team.
    Team owner Stephan Papadakis is a legend of sport­ compact racing who began building his reputation in the 1990s with the first front-wheel ­drive, tube­-chassis drag car in the U.S. The team earned multiple records and championships in the discipline, turning in elapsed times and trap speeds previously thought unattainable in front­-drive drag cars. Papadakis' successes in front­-wheel drive were matched by his efforts in rear­-wheel drive when he campaigned a Honda Civic that became just the fifth car to join the NHRA's Sport Compact 200 MPH club

  • @This_Is_Not_My_Username
    @This_Is_Not_My_Username 4 роки тому +2

    So they balance these turbos once both turbine wheels are together on the turbo. When you remove one of them and then reapply it, you will have to re-balance the turbo. Just like taking a car tire off a wheel and then rotating it some and putting it back on the same wheel with the same wheel weights but just a lot more strict since they're smaller and snip A LOT faster than a wheel/tire.

    @GTFORZA 4 роки тому

    So food for thought. When removing or installing compressor wheel nut, the best tool is a t-bar with the compressor facing up. With a t-bar you are less likely of tweaking the turbine shaft. To hold the turbine wheel, just clamp an appropriately sized socket in a vise. The the compressor facing upward and the turbine wheel locked into the vised socket, remove the compressor nut with two hands on the t-bar.
    Little trick for extracting the turbine wheel shaft is to flip the turbo, exhaust wheel facing up, and carefully pop the shaft ,pointing down, against a wood table. That will prevent thread damage.
