Ok cool, ill ask bryan to get me a 3" testpipe to replace my HFC piece.

Can anyone chime in here: https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/920...g/page__st__25

The sooner i can fix that, the sooner i can get a re-tune!

 

Hi guys i have just got a Greddy turbo kit, i have every thing i need to fit except the adaptor and fittings to fit the oil pressure sensor from the block to the turbo oil feed, can any one tell me the sizes of them / what i will need?
thanks

hey guys - just so everyone knows..... the Greddy oil filter relocation kit changes from the HONDA 20mm x 1.5 thread pitch to 3/4 UNF... this means that the stock honda s2000 filter is NOT sized correctly, and therefore should not be used. why they did this, i do not know.

I have been using my stock honda filter for a number of years now, but it is NOT CORRECT.


basically i put the bullet and bought a $130 adapter kit for an S14 to get the correct thread pitch. The part comes in tomorrow, and hopefully it solves the problem. I will post my findings this weekend.


so just an FYI, now knowing what i know - there is no way i would run the stock filter on the supplied greddy oil relocation kit.

in other words, from a very intelligent man Mr. Hecash:
"The threading is M20 x 1.5. So, the outside of the adapter should be around 19.8 - 19.9. The inside of the filter should be about 18.5. The difference is the depth of the thread. The adapter seems to be too thin. Can you call Greddy and discuss this with them?

If a new filter is 18.5 and the adapter is 19, then there is only .5 of thread interface where the standard ought to be 1.3 - 1.4."

i emailed Greddy, and got this response:

Hi Casey,

Thank you for your inquiry. Upon reading your email, we believe it is due to the use of improper oil filter size. Please be aware that when using the provided oil block adapter, it will convert the thread on the filter side to 3/4 16UNF. The thread on the block side will be M20 1.5 however the filter side is different. So to eliminate your issue, all you would have to do is to use a filter with 3/4 16UNF. We recommend the GReddy OX-2 or any other filter of your preference with the filter threaded to 3/4 16UNF, dims of the oil filter body is O.D. 74mm and Height 85mm. Please reference #22 and 32 accordingly from the S2K instructions/parts list. This should eliminate your issue. Please let us know if you have further trouble.

I've been using the Mobil 1 and K&N filter with the stock greddy relocation kit that came with the turbo kit. Is this proper?

 

typically if you buy an oil filter made for an S2000 it will be in the 20m x1.5 thread pitch. In turn, unless it is specifically the 3/4UNF thread pit, it is not correct.

 

Im running an OEM filter for over a year right now. (no issues yet ) i did however put a clamp around the filter and made a bracket so it wouldnt come off due to vibration..

Never knew about this problem. What could go wrong?

 

any pics of the bracket and clamp you fabbed up?

ive been running the incorrect filter size for a few years now with no issues. the problem arose when i went to install an oil cooler. due to the diameter of the filter, it doesnt allow for "wiggle" on the incorrect threading, however when i tried to put a sandwich place with 20m x 1.5 mm thread on there, it didnt thread tight enough. The result was 4 qts of oil dumped on the rd after 4 blocks of driving.

The smaller diameter adapter of the oil cooler DID allow for play between the two parts and caused the problem. At the end of the day i could have just gone with a different sandwich plate adapter, and a 3/4 filter, but to me - that seemed to digress from the integrity of the setup as a whole.


what could happen is the filter fall off due to the incorrect thread contact. which could result in a blown engine. Ill spend the $130 and forgo that issue.

 

My S2000 ap1 specifications:
- testpipe 70mm Invidia
- HKS Hi Power Silent dual
- big bore 70mm


Hi,

I bought the Greddy turbo kit for my S2000 (ap1).
For reliable engine I also bought the thicker head gasket (Cometic MLS Head Gasket) and screws reinforced: ARP Head Stud Kit.
For engine management I preferred bought a AEM to replace the e-manage included in the kit + AEM Boost Solenoid
For information verrifier I bought also three manometers (gauge) STACK, for controlling the temperature of oil, boost, and exhaust gas temperature.

I have some questions for which I would like to have your opinion:

- What is the best BOV for this turbo kit? and mounting it is easy?
- What is the maximum pressure that I can try with stock internal engine ...?
- I'd like to make four engine management: two with the SP98, and 2 with ethanol. pressure full safe for track day, and another in higher pressure for the runs. What is the ideal pressure for can I expect to get a good mapping?
- I would also like to know if there are another ways to cool the engine by keeping the hood OEM?

- Last question: for those who have mounted an oil catch tank. Where have mounted in the engine compartment? which model you have chosen?

Thank you,

Florent

 

You would like to keep the headgasket untouched with this kit as well as the studs.

You can try any bov what you like. Mountin will be with a weld on flange..

10-11psi is the max for THIS kit

Use an oil cooler to keep temps low.

 

So am I understanding it right that with any type of log manifold you'll typically raise VTEC for a linear powerband? Or are there less restrictive log manifolds like the Pfab one that will allow you to keep the vtec level around stock or a little lower with this kit?

Also, bumping this thread up bc its lost in the abyss of this forum
