Picked up some cheap LED worklights off fleabay to help me see those defects! Had the stands floating around in my workshop so it retrofit the LED's onto the stands ? 4×150W LED's are nice and bright and dont give off any heat like halogen light which is good when you're going hard at it!

This is my metro vac master blaster it may look like a toy but Donald Trumps toupee wouldn't stand a chance against this thing! No more chamois drying and creating them nasty swirls & spiderwebs!

So this little guy is a Flex PE-8 its an 800W rotary polisher. I f**ken love this little guy! I have backing plated from 3" down to 1" and with the extension bars that i have there literally isn't a place i can't get to ?
-
So this bad boy the the Flex 3401 Forced rotation polisher its a 900W beast! Im a pipe fitter/ pressure welder and spend alot of time hanging off 9" grinders and this thing commands the same respect lol. Sure its not gunna cut your arm off but it takes some muscle to hang on to ?

Mick_O's Detailing Diary Hey guys! I've always detailed my own cars forever and have done a couple of detailing courses with SAU & alot of online research over the years. After the 1st course i ran out and bought a neat little random orbital polisher (Mint DAS6) which is a great little unit for the money and has never missed a beat ? But after playing around with some serious gear my mate (That Detailing Guy) had i realised how much of a toy my lil DAS6 was! So a few months ago i splashed out on some nice new toys and have had some fun in the shed with some friends and family cars. So thought id share some pics of my new toys and the results I've got with them ?

Piglet's Rebuild Of His Busted Tomei 2.8
Mick_o replied to Piggaz's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
You should beat him with 500+kw and the 320psi of boost you plan to run with no sensor! ? -
Come on Bob quit with the smoke and mirrors mate. You laid it all out for us in the beginning and now you wont give us any data whatsoever? You have video of it on the dyno etc but no dynosheet? Just tell us did what power it made we dont care about the variables! Sticky tyres spinning wheels who cares! Did it hit target boost when it was supposed to? I can see you've spent a fortune on trying something left of centre and i hope the car delivered what you wanted but i just dont get why you're holding out? Im guessing it didn't do any of the things claimed of it?
-
Damn! That will be an expensive exercise! Why not do it once and do it right? Keep the boost down on the single then turn up the wick when you get bored of the power? Do you have the 5s already?
-
Kiss that GTX goodbye shortly with it wound up that hard lol
-
I reckon you should practice what you preach Johnny lol
-
Very surprised by your statement! Obviously the GTX3582 is a good thing too. I found the more i drove it the more i noticed the little things the EFR done better.
-
How many km's have you done in the car?
-
I agree its not a cheap exercise. But i can tell you now that's a crock^^^ an EFR changes absolutely EVERYTHING about the car. The throttle response, the extra grunt and torque down low, the transient response... It completely transforms the car from idle to redline. DOESN'T make it a top end screamer at all! That's old school "twin turbo propoganda" Do not get me wrong if you like the twins for the stock look etc thats fine i get that. I really do. But honestly if you are modding because you want more grunt and a nicer drive throw the twins in the bin. Its a single for the win. An EFR will blow the weeds out of a ANY sized twins from the basement to redline ?
-
^^^Still as above...Better on the street or the track than the 5s! By hundreds of rpm's plus more power everywhere plus more reliable ?
-
I sure hope so! A .58 on a 2.8L will never work! Maybe on my 1.6L turbo SSS?
-
Seen it being fanged on the street obviously its come off the rollers. Post a sheet! Give us some numbers mate ?
-
Come on guys make an offer on this thing! ? Make it a lowball sleazy offer just gimme some cash and take this thing away! I thought you blokes like precision turbos?!
