  1. she prefers the sound of the audison amps and focals more than the engine. go figure.
  2. recently we stuck a 3" straight thru custom made 10" x 8" x 19" monster mofo rear muffler due to ms wolv wanting NO NOISE at all (replacing a twin outlet 10" x 6" x 12") the muffler looks like something off a prime mover but it is super quiet. it sounds quieter than stock to my ears as there is no tell tale RB over-run noise coming into the driveway at all. the rear end of the stagea has so much room so they are really easy to get the noise down. cost $280 plus fitting.
  3. Webber was on full wets when Glock was on inters and he was only 2-3 secs a lap slower vs the other drivers being around 7-12 secs slower. Vettel made no significant headway this race even in the wet, although when he got the inters on he was laying down a good time. At this point it is difficult to see much separating these two in terms of outright speed but Webbers car was faster in the wet this race without question.
  4. Webber pitted and changed tyres (to inters?) then next lap came in again for full wets hence losing a few spots. Vettel's pace was not on par with Mark Roger Ramjet WebZ in the wet.
  5. it's hard to look beyond Button, Trulli Glock and Barrichello (even with the penalty) for outright car speed but Kubica is a proven racer so i reckon the podium will look like Button, Kubica and Trulli.

  7. http://www.justin.tv/yellowbirdrs i changed and this one seems to be working. button mega fast in Q2 on soft tyres
  8. http://www.justin.tv/dragons_bar practice on now.
  9. he is a self acknowledged team player. GO TEAM HAMILTON (it's easy to be a team player when you are the beneficiary of every decision)
  10. from Hamilton Straight after that we were requested by the stewards, and while waiting I was instructed and misled by my team manager to withhold information, and that is what I did. "I sincerely apologise to the stewards for wasting their time. I’d like to say sorry to all my fans who have believed in me, and have supported me for years. I am not a liar or a dishonest person. I am a team player. Every time I have been informed to do something I have done it. This time I realise it was a huge mistake. I am learning from it. It has taken a huge toll on me.”
  11. possibly extrude honing the covers will give you a little extra but it would cost around $250 per cover plus the cost of removing it all. if you only do the turbine cover it might work out ok but it would be an expensive exercise if it didn't achieve what you wanted.
  12. what (if any) changes have been made to cam gears?
  13. RB25 HKS cast manifolds are divided and they float around the for sale section from time to time.
  14. at least webber gets back on the lead lap
  15. try this one http://tv.f1.f-e-n.net/
  16. webber made a mistake in the 2nd sector and lost about 3 tenths or more.
  17. LH struggling in Q1 so i guess that answers how he is liking it so far.
  18. disco have you looked at the TS housings shown on ATP? is it just the twin IW you are waiting for?
  19. i looked it up the other day and it is exactly like i was imagining originally. neat that it can be installed under the bonnet (although i am guessing turbo charged underbonnet temps might challenge it a bit).
  20. let me get this straight you want to spend NZD$1500 vs re-using the standard BOV's and piping? umm, we can do some funny things in australia but this must be a trick question.
  21. fpr should give you another 10% headroom out of the injectors. they should be ok at your targeted level but if you run out of duty it will be annoying. ask trent what he thinks and if he has an fpr sitting in stock.
