yeh i had an oil blockage near the pump. and it couldve been the reason it kept blowing. but ive fixed that since, and got more power after another tune.
i'd suggest doing it, but as scott says no ones forcing you, but your turbo
as iain said but is your "front pipe" still standard? or is it and upgraded part aswell.
any modification will obviously perform at its best with a tune. you'll mac out the suction pipe at about 190kw IIRC
there is still a part of the exhaust between the dump and the cat back.
well you can get an emanage for around 500-600 brand new. and a tune depending on the tuner from 400-600 including install of the unit.
might have to drive down to melbourne for that, as theirs still only one proven tuner unless i stand corrected
who said? lol you dont need to, but if you wanted to pull some power out of it, its advisable. with a budget of 5k I dont think the OP was consdering tuning?
you may have a leak in the lines somehwere. so whenever you use it more water squirts out from somewhere else, using more water.. mines doing it too. lol
ok so what mine was, a leak before the turbo, after the afm.
up high in the boost it would set itself into limp after air crept through the silicone joiners..
sorry if i didnt explain properly birthday boy
