  1. "Gees it must be pretty good since your trying to get 5-8k more than market. Is the clutch std??" What exact market and vehicles are you comparing this to ? relicr31act perfect reply mate good luck with the sale, excellent example, ignore the quick children.
  2. Paul, thanks very much for taking the time and effort to explain this properly. So in your opinion, and my interpretation of what you have written, it's not unusual to only be getting 1.1 bar with the factory controller bypassed, but by re-plumbing, we can get more using a good boost controller ? Thanks again, best regards Paul
  3. JIS is Japanese Industry Standard and by itself is not sufficient to certify in Victoria for 15yo. Some tyres have a combination of JIS, DOT and or E marking. the latter 2 are the minimum requirement here in Vic. Still others are ok if complied on the dotars site under manufacturer, so in the end - leave it to your engineer. regards Paul
  4. Thanks Danooh, sort of makes sense, just that when we joined them together, the boost went up from 0.8-0.9 to about 1.1 ?? If they were open all the time, wouldn't I be getting less boost ? Sorry if I'm sounding thick, just don't get it yet.
  5. Thanks for the (some) useful replys. So does anyone know why restricting the hoses with a controller will increase the boost ? Doesn't make sense to me but willing to learn if anyone can explain !
  6. ok, but wouldn't an electronic boost controller only further restrict the line - at full open ie no controller as it is now, no restriction, isn't this like the boost controller being on max boost ?
  7. Thanks for your reply. Isn't the std controller already connected to the actuators on one side and the manifold on the other ? wouldn't this only restrict the bleed more ?
  8. Hi, from all the experience here, can someone help please. Recently imported a GTR promptly blew the ceramic exhaust turbo wheel off the rear turbo (was running about 0.9 when it arrived) so rebuilt both with steel wheels (otherwise stock turbos). Now I know these can run higher boost. The restrictor in the hose to the controller had already been removed but still only achieved 0.85 - 0.9 max. We bypassed the controller altogether (I know this is normally bad) by running the two hoses together, ran it up carefully and we only get 1.0 - 1.1 bar - goes well but I know there's more. Isn't this the most we would get ? Surely putting a controller back in the line can only restrict it ? How do we get the extra boost ? Stock ECU as far as I know, good (big) front pipes, std dumps, 3.5 inch exhaust, pods, the usual stuff. Any help greatly appreciated. Paul
