  1. Considering you might have a series 1 or an M35 we were just guessing but yes get a 3.7v feed to pin 51 and you are good to go. The car will run fine as is except the engine checklight will be lit. I don't think there will be any other issues unless there are sensor issues related to the old auto box that needs attention ie. related to the shifter position P or D
  2. Hard to give much help when we don't know what car you are talking about.... Posting in existing threads involving PFC's would have made a whole lot more sense to me?!?!
  3. Manual has a fork bottom end, autos have eyelet.
  4. GT30/35 framed turbos can be mounted on the factory manifold so unless the HTA's have a gigantic comp then it should fit.
  5. Re-open thread 7's
  6. I have cannon with pipework to rear flange and additionally have an Xforce twin tipped 3" in/out rear muffler with no pipework per signature located west/north west Sydney.
  7. Which turbo are you going to use? If you want 330rwkw then IMO the 1.06 turbine housing is the best bet to get there on 98ron with no guarantees on how much low down response you will lose over your current setup.
  8. I am also fine with larger rims from the point of view of aesthetics...penis noses not today, not tomorrow.
  9. Tis cool. It is just something to consider when choosing a Plazmaman plenum. Remote filter access (as the OP has planned for is a good idea) when using these plenums.
  10. Great news about your plenum. It still has nothing to do with oil filter access when using a Plazmaman plenum which is known to be tight due the larger volume of the plenum.
  11. I think my point was related to Plazmaman plenums...what is your point?
  12. Oh look, another NOT Plazmaman plenum...
  13. You don't know why? Is that a Plazmaman plenum in your pics?
  14. Lith, I thought we were all on the same page more or less. A 0.63 with the right wastegate flap and actuator should be fine or am I missing something? Ext gate would be better but surely boost control has been sorted on these things.
  15. The next performance step is E85 which you are unwilling to do so that leaves a turbo change, perhaps HTA range might be the go. Any other change is likely to cost a lot of money for not much gain. If you change to a larger turbine housing you might make a bit more power but you lose response. If you change to larger duration cams you will probably shift the power to the right. A 1.06 TS turbine housing and 6B manifold might make a bit more power at the top end but there is a lot of expense with few guarantees. It all comes down to how important more top end power is to you.
  16. A lot of money to spend for little gain. Save your money.
  17. I would argue that this turbo is well within hiflow territory so it is probably redundant (on cost/benefit but not useless or hopeless) before it starts. To me the compressor isn't flowing significantly that early like the other more slippery GTX compressors so a smaller housing would give a bigger shove down low. Nothing earth shattering in saying that. The peak power everyone was expecting was within reach of the 0.63 so it makes sense this might have been the best housing to try. Why Garrett chose this compressor has a lot to do with someone wanting 450hp, 500hp, 550hp (or whatever steps each compressor offers) after all they all run the same turbine wheel. What none of us know is how it drives, dyno prints aren't worth a lick of spit for telling you how much better this thing runs on the road for rolling response hence I would just drive the thing and enjoy it. I would certainly check for boost leaks because they are highly parasitic. If I was made of money I would consider buying a 0.63 housing and a retune but given the time taken to get it to this point there would be no urgency on my part unless the workshop was going to make up the cost of selecting a less suitable actuator and seemingly putting work on the car on the backburner. Ultimately all our conjecture is sometimes a bit of a downer for the OP and we can lose sight of the fact that we will never be 100% happy with a setup because someone else will tell you they can always make more power, come on earlier or do something better.....drive it enjoy it and see how you feel in 6mths.
  18. I have >270rwkw out of a Plazmaman return flow on the yellow pig so I am not convinced that a Blitz FMIC is the issue. I am no fan of split dumps either but I doubt this is having a significant negative effect. I would love to see the exhaust dropped next time it is tuned to rule out any restriction there...just in case. Regardless of all the above speculation I would pressurise the intake to double check there are no leaks (ahem Mick ) To me it looks like most other 0.82 Garrett GT30 turbine seem to deliver...just like Dale says this is the most likely thing that has determined the final result.
  19. Nico will spend hours on his hair, the amount of product will repel the pimp hand.
  20. Daina got one under insurance thru Shannon's and pretty sure it was O'Briens. Possibly worth trying Manie's 0408255548 They replaced the R33's windscreen at short notice and for a fair price compared to the majors.
  21. Joises, 50's housewives for the walk'o??
  22. Meanwhile Disco Dan is circulating on a set of used Nankangs and looks a good chance of closing out the last 5 laps for a podium.
  23. Interesting start. Kimi is continuing his unhappy year. Nico got away with a clean pair of heels now can he do it again?
