  11. I have to travel to Heathcote from Wollongong with 10 jerry cans,so that means I will have to go to Campbelltown,but its worth it.
  12. The facts are backpressure robs horsepower big time.Ive built systems for racecars for years,normally aspirated and boosted,it doesnt matter,backpressure NO GOOD,especially turbos mate.Anything over 2pound at full noise is bad.Good to see you checked it as most people dont.Best spot to check is just in front of the cat,if you have one as its normally the most restrictive part of the system.Check what size systems all the big guns run on this forum,its very important
  13. Hi guys looking for a set of RB26 throttle bodies.Dont need the plenum or anything else as im using them on a different engine.Cheers Matt
  14. looks like an R32.5 beautiful
  15. Ok thanks Brad,so basically all the front runners use chevs and not the original brand of engine.
  16. Hey Stuart,just watched the sports sedan meeting at Phillip Island from a few months ago,wow fast cars,just a point to prove to my mates,can you tell me what engine Kerry Bailey runs in his car.Thought if anyone would know,you would,cheers Matt
  17. Hey Roy,at the moment my exhaust could definately be improved.I used to build custom exhausts and extractors for many cars including a couple of "B" grade V8 supercars so ive got a bit of knowledge.The outlet on my single turbo is 3" which is the size of the dump pipe,in my opinion it should flare out to 3.25 or 3.5 but its reasonable.It runs to a smashed out 3" cat(which I did not do)which again is too small.From there on is 3.5 stainless system,of course all straight through.Some time next year im going to build a better system for it.The new system will be made out of mild steel as its always quieter,and the packing in the mufflers never lasts as long as the stainless pipe and muffler housing,so really stainless is just for show.The only real way to test your exhaust is to drill a hole in it,say just in front of the cat and hook up a pressure gauge.If it moves at all,that means backpressue,and that means power loss,especially on turbo cars.Sorry to ramble on but this has been a passion for both me and my Dad for years now.We have also developed a variable exhaust system using butterflies actuated by adjustable pressure sensors,so you can have the best of both worlds and get rid of that annoying highway drone.Remember your exhaust is just as important as any other performance part on your car,but Im sure you know that,cheers mate
  18. 565Kw,is that all,lol!!!Man that is wild.And is that a four cylinder?Adam gets them going hey.Shame you werent at Temora as you would have givin the front runners a scare.I was coming 4th outright up until the last round but ended up sixth with only slightly under 400Kws,although AWD definately helped me.You youtube clips are cool(other than the stones)my incar ones on the as well under Temora 1000 if you want to checkout.Remember im an old dude but I try my best.Anyhow you should be proud of how you went,I think you should come to Temora next year,kick some arse and I will shout you a beer.
  19. How much power has that weapon of yours got?
  20. Not sure of my diff ratio but I think its standard,just under 8000rpm in 5th,265,35,18 kumhos,best run was 271km/h was averaging in the 260s.
  21. What top speed did you achieve PJ?
  22. The stones were no where near as bad at Temora,Im not laying crap on the event,just saying it was bad.Alot of the cars entered are beautiful street cars and thats a definate turn off.
