  1. Hey Dale, the response with my .82 is quite good. As I said before the under boost response is a huge leap forward. ATP did say that this would be the case. Seems the .50 A/R comp housing moves a bit of air "under the curve" as ATP would say. Can't believe how the exhaust note has changed as now sounds like a very angry car. The final tune is now monday 14th at Unigroup. Yavus is my favourite tuner these days, as he likes to know what you want out of the tune. But 258kw so far and that is not any where near properly tuned. The standard air box may slow things down somewhat and the dump pipe is only three inches. With a 4" dump things will be better again.
  2. Yes, all from ATP. The machining wasn't really needed but it looked like a really cool option so I grabbed it. The slots are really for anti-surge but that would only be if one used the .63 housing as they make boost very early and the engine simply can't swollow the air. I must say though that the off boost driving is much improved. Even though nothing extraordinary happens under 3,500rpm the pickup is fantastic over the old GCG hi-flow. Oh, and on the subject of GCG hi-flows, I will never reccommend those useless bloody things again. I spent a couple of grand on the best tuners in Sydney and bloody thing never made more than 220rwkw. Oh, hang on, one tuner did get 240 but the next tuner couldn't believe how much timing he had put in it. I was lucky I didn't thrash it as it would have done a piston for sure.
  3. Hope this works. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/uploads/1215299925/gallery_23164_2695_280843.jpg' alt='gallery_23164_2695_280843.jpg'>

    3071

    From the album: GT3071 with .82 housing.

    My GT3071
  5. Thanks for that. Will get to work on it straight away. Had to put Luis to work before final tune. Bear in mind I simply don't have any time so thats why this has been a long time coming. I actually had a 3076 coming from the states but then a friend said he didn't want his 3076 so cancelled the order and now friend wants his turbo to go on. So will stick to the 3071 and make the next tune a big one. The power I have at the moment is very good and will inform all at a later date. DaleFz knows the initial results but thats without a tune. Will give you a hint, no tune and boost comes on hard at 3,500rpm.
  6. Hi Guys, I'll make a deal with you, someone tell me how to post up photos and I'll show you my 3071 with .82 housing. Yes it is the genuine 5023 cartridge. I bought this one to see if guys like Disco Potato were right about it being the perfect street turbo. The difference with this one is, it is from ATP with the anti-surge holes in the intake. 60mm turbine wheel, A/R 50 71mm compressor. All work carried out by Luis from Drift Garage. Let me tell you he is a great bloke and I highly recommend him. Will probably need to enlarge the dump pipe to four inches as I don't want to go back to a split dump again. Otherwise all is well and the intake is 4" into 3" to original air box. Managed to use the old oil feed but made up braided lines for water. Cut the old metal blow off valve tube and used rubber hose for last 100mm's. Anyhow, tell me how to load photos and I'll give you more info. Thanks to Dale, Disco, Mafia and Lithium. Good previous posts from all and helped with decision.
  7. You guys must be really young to want to lower your cars that much. Have you checked out any rally cars lately ? they can corner better than most because they don't bottom out around a corner and spit you across the road into an oncoming car. THATS why the police get upset with excessive lowering, especially in the rain. Standard lows or Sydney Kids group buy !! So tell me, how many porches or Ferrari's have adjustable race type coil and shocks ? Only the latest designs have. Why ? Because you can't beat a properly setup shock and coil. Bilsteins & the right valving with coils to match. OK off my soap box.
  8. If your working in pounds then set the gain to 20 then if 14lbs is what your after set the 'set gain' to around 4lbs less then 14, so 10 should do nicely. I had my profec set this way with my hi-flow and it was perfect.
  9. hmmm, $4,000 for new wheels to lighten load on suspension then add wieght back on with 50 cents of metal. You would need semi slicks and well sorted suspension to put enough load on the arms causing any sort of bending. Not a mod for street cars or weekend track cars. Actually, this would be ok for rally.
