I deffinately wouldnt be happy with 10 - 15 knock without load. The engine doesnt make that much noise. When im cruising my knock sits on 1-2 and ever now and then will tap 3-4 and go straight back to 1. In other words its a long way off 10 - 13 constant.

Well that would be depenadant on whats causing the block if that is infact the issue.. If its a damaged core you would see damage on the outside of the cooler. So i wouldnt expect that to be the case. If it is infact experiencing a large pressure drop across the core you all of a sudden you should be able to get an idea whats causing this restriction by examining it off the car.

Based on that information it could be worth taking the intercooler physically off the car and having a look at it internally. You would think the car wouldnt idle properly or run so perfectly if it was a blatant leak.

if you want to do burnouts and 360's get yourself a RWD car.

good to hear insurance will look after you. She wont be offered a rental again after this with her background

... wrong window! to much to drink!

Your engine is knocking, it comes on with a knock reading over 60. Get your car looked at immediately or you could do serious engine damage. Could be caused by poor tuning, bad fuel, bad plugs ect ect.

sounds like its running really rich mate needs to get leaned up with a good tune

just kick her in the face.

wow looks great mate

compression test the engine. That will let you know if your getting blow by of oil. If thats fine start looking at fuel, gaskets, turbo.

Well youd appreciate it alot more if you got their yourself. But hey thats my 2c if your olds want to do that for you thats their decision... Though you better look after them in the future! Because they deffinately will deserve it.

Big difference between a unit and a house when your talking appreciation of an asset. But regardless of that who the hell would honestly expect such a rediculas amount from their parents? Selling THEIR home so you can get GTR is the most selfish and rediculas thing iver heard in a long time. Not to mention that a GTR isnt exactly a wise invesment of 60k. Tell me what do you do for money? Have you thought about the possibility of achieving these goals on your own two feet?

Your parents house? Sell your own damn assets

id expect around 220-230 with those modifications. Ofcourse this depends on the tune and the boost run, Good luck.

Exactly, there would be no point, its not going to cause a restriction.

Wow... whoever did that certainly made a mess. You can piping kits though for almost the same cost you can get a whole kit from Just Jap as mentioned earlier they are a trader on this forum check them out.

Are you saying that for example on a standard gts-t that is looking at a 50rwkw power loss which is close to 25% loss. That on a 1000kw car you are looking at a 25% loss also resulting in a 250rwkw loss through the driveline? Why would it absorb more power the more power you make?

Drivetrain loss will remain the same unless things are changed.

What have you been smoking? a 1kw loss through your drive train? Your dreaming mate. You will be looking at a significant amount to be lost through your drive train by the time power has been transfered through your gearbox, diff ect. What do you think these things dont absorb power?

mate that price is rediculas.

he is asking once he gets the turbo and injectors done could he expect 250rkw out of the new set up.

... funniest thing ive heard in a while

Best option is to get hi flowed standard turbo. Do a search on hi flows its been covered alot of times, even lately. Check out forum trader slide performance that will give you an idea on prices.

4100 a year .. ouch. When i was 18 they insured me for 2200 a year. Car looks good matey all the best with it.
