Charger lube

Recommended Posts

So i understand that when you delete the boost return, you no longer get the oil mist back into the charger.

Since getting my charger back from darren from its health check in july i hvent lubed it and i have boost return deleted :oops:

Ive prob only covered 1000miles

 

Am i asking for trouble?

It depends on how many miles you run of course.

 

I remember some time ago, someone else asking about this...

 

I guess that Darren said that some PTFE spray every 2 months is OK!

 

Please correct me if i´m wrong.

 

Anyway this is one of the reasons that don´t make me a fan of the boost return mod.

 

I like to know that the charger is always lubed with some oil, and so i don´t have to worry about the PTFE spraying...

 

Does it worth? I have never drove a car without the boost return deleted.

 

Do you notice anything apart from the woosh sound?

I'm sure Darren'll confirm it soon enough, but I asked the same question when I had my charger done and he said as its got loads of the solid type lube in it when its rebuilt it won't need any spraying for (i think) a year! :)

 

Works well on sunroofs though! :)
