BB - Hitman didn't tune my stock ECU - he tuned the SAFC2 which is in my car. The stock ECU has a lot of operating parameters as we all know - we couldn't wind up boost past 11psi as the car would cut out at 4.5K rpm.

sorry mate, silly me forgot about that. just when you said 'tune' and 'stock ecu' for my brain said re-map!

Good talking to you Joe :P

And thanks guys. :(

Links; he doesn't want to use your turbo It's not good enough, he replaces it with a "new" item! Bastard :P..

Hmm.. so flog off mine for 300.. pay for some of the intercooler.. hmm.. not bad.. not bad.. get an aftermarket ECU.. good $2500 upgrade + labour + tuning..

;)

Satanic Im from brisbane/gold coast. Im not sure if its because I had that on holiday glow or something but the women in Sydney are far more willing I found when I was down there a month back.

But f**k driving in that place, what a joke. Better chemists up here however if you need vitamins or berocas hehe

Checked in the coin compartment above your right knee? I always forget I have money there!

??????? no not there, found 2 buttons instead - 1 gave me decent levels of boost, the other gave me ridiculous levels of boost. No coins there - I gather I dont have a coin-slot.

ross80: you must be doing something wrong! Last time I was on the Gold Coast, all I saw was "hi-beaming" everywhere!

Tangles: you're just special! Where can I get those buttons? I believe the $4.80 in my coin tray is a small price to pay for buttons :cheers:

Of course I am. LOL.

Im actually pretty sure you've got the same boost controller that I have! (Hybrid 2stage), plus yours has more kick than mine anyway! Now, my wife has a coinslot stashed somewhere, but hasnt dispensed anything to me for a while, all this talk of highbeams is driving me stiffly up the wall.

:D

anyways, on topic, Im pretty sure I'll be going Ball Bearing, not Bush

Dyno Graph is on my website... follow the link below.

PM me for more details if you want, Northern Beaches Performance has a few deals going on with Sliding Performance at the moment.

Just had a look at your webpage looks like a pretty good setup. Is it as easy to bolt on as the GCG one? Are both the oil and water lines used with the journal bearing setup?

Looking forward to seeing your results with the new injectors and ECU installed.

cheers

Until i see a back to back comparison against a GCG hiflow i wont hold my breath. at half the cost and journal bearing I can't see it being as good.

I am interested in installation routine to get it working and boost response

Just look at my dyno graph.... even though it's half the price and journal bearing, I'm telling you it is very comparable! I should really put my torque curve up :)

Nah, I'm not going to argue - my knowledge is not that great about turbos and I admit that. All I'll say is that I'm very happy with my pet snail and can't wait to feed it some steroids!

Installation is bolt on - provided all smaller fittings and all that are purchased, shouldn't take that long.

Thanks again Stan

The turbo's are straight bolt ins with only very small modifications required and that is to one oil line and banjo bolts/nuts which is very cheap to do and the following instructions will explain.

These modifications are required to assist in cooling and lubricating the journal bearing.

I am more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

Please email me at aaron@slidingperformance.com or alternativly just pm me :)

hey i know i sound like a newb asking this, which i am but what is the difference between ball bearing and bush bearing? any spooling differences? which one has longer life?

slide: money is starting to build up... one more week i hope and i will be able to try out this thing.

stan: hey man, im guessing your hitting boostcut? maybe? dunno? hehhee

    • *that* is a question for chatgpt (or someone that understands maths....but I'd try chatty). Drop them the table and ask for the formula
    • Alright. Exhaust has been looked at, and booked in 'soon'. I'm not 100% convinced it's going to be as good as possible but I'm going to go with it anyway. If I get a reasonable thing that works for 10 years I mean that's twice as long as I've lived with the current one. I have a more pressing issue. I have fixed my MPVI3 (by buying a new one). Excellently, one can wire in analog 0-5v inputs to the ECU itself. I had wideband already via Serial so I also wired it in via the direct input. The idea being I can use the standalone logging without a laptop and have Wideband data in it. The other wire I thought I'd use oil temp. This is where I've gone crazy. HPTuners requires you to implement a formula so you know how much volts = how much temp. This seems relatively simple to me. However I cannot find the scale for this anywhere on the internet, nor decipher how to figure it out without removing the sensor from the car. All I know is that voltage actually goes up as temperature goes down. I am using the actual gauge, so I can see what the temp is. The signal wire has been branched off into the MPVI3. EXAMPLE: 2.68v = 58C 2.7 = 57C 2.74v = 56C 2.8V = 54C 3.06V = 49C 3.18V = 47C 3.37V = 43C I think the gauge is 50-150C. It may be more. It may be less, because I can't find it for the love of f**k. It appears all the information about the gauges I have has been scoured from the internet, but the sender is VDO 320.021 I believe the resistance chart is this How the f**k do I convert this to a voltage? Once I have a voltage... I then have to perform this transform of said voltage to show it in the scanner: https://www.hptuners.com/help/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm @GTSBoy you're probably my only hope here TEST YOUR MIGHT
    • Here’s the updated and installed muse replica nismo ones … very happy with the outcome. Eventhough I painted my whole rear end due to my rich idle lol. 
    • Hmm. I had a good look (w/o searching, because I'm not logging in) and couldn't see it either. I distinctly recall the thread, not many weeks ago. It must have been removed or perhaps put into the back section. If it was in Off Topic you should at least have been able to search it up. So if I'm not hallucinating, it is fairly decently removed.
