Nah, It was more of a rhetorical statement rather than a factual comment. Wasn't saying you said otherwise but just making an observation that if he had the second tune done at Dyson, it would more than likely rule out bad tuning.

Oh fair enough.

Completely agree :)

Maybe i missed it, did Dyson tune it the second time?

Dyson had done the tune befor i bought it and it was running great. But then i went and changed the top end then dyson retuned it for me and made 490 at 20psi. was running wicked under boost but too fuely at idel. Then i had a bit of a missfire. so i took it to the local guys. They said the tune was done the old school way and that they could get heaps more power. So they made me 430 at 24psi. YAY. And to fix the miss fire they sent the microtec of and said it was the problem. them said it was the harness so they replaced it. Then still missfired so they replaced my no1 coil for $40 that fixed the prob. Then they gave me a bill for near $2500 they wont give me a timming graph. Said they cant get that of a dyno tune. but ill scan the results from dyson and the results for the local boys T.A.S.

So you are saying you had 490rwhp then took it to another tuner and they could only get 430? nothing mechanical has changed ?

Link make the ECU which calls the shots on the fastest RB30 powered car in the world (may be the quickest RB in this part of the world not running meth too?).

So what? Cars that are even faster, much faster, don't have ECU's at all. So we should all change to that fuel injection system? Why not, based on your rating system, it's better than a Link?

Mechanical injection is superior to Electronic injection in nearly all applications...so yeah, we should all change to it.

      As GTS mentioned, it takes a bit of faffing, some fiddling and a little modifying.  With the strainers, you can buy different styles. Some sit flat on the pump, some angle down.  Here are some photos of mine, ignore the ugly welds lol.

      The smart thing is to actually locate the pump at the right point down the hanger, so that the strainer can stay sticking out at a right angle, but near the bottom. This is the perpetual hassle with retrofitting any different pump to the factory hanger. Some just go where you need it to, some need fiddling and faffing, and modifying of stuff.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Some updates. After a lot of praying and some inspecting of crank threads, we've found that they were both kinda munted but nothing seemed terminal. The other option was drilling and helicoiling the crank. That is obviously the last option so we decided to at least try to get a OEM GM bolt in to GM Specs. So after honing/linishing the balancer from it's .002" interference fit to a .0018" to .0015" to .0013" it eventually slotted on to the crank. ATI state the interference is nominally 0.0007-0.0009... so it's still snugger than ATI reckon and explains the issues we had to fit the thing to begin with. New GM bolt went in at 37 ft/lb then torqued 140 degrees after which was EXTREMELY   but it tightened up to 140 degrees and it was a lot of force. So all things considered, the balancer is secured to the exact specs that GM want with the OEM Stretch bolt, (that ATI say you can use..) and the balancer itself is seated and snug AF. So WOO. Engine is now back in the car with lots of swearing. Bellhousing bolts done up, driver side manifold is on, AC Compressor and hard lines are back on the car. Next step will be to connect various engine bits/wiring/intake/radiator etc. Then oil and coolant and ... test start it? And of course, looking into this issue... which actually doesn't look so bad - It looks like it can be twisted back into shape with a set of multigrips. Anyone wanna buy my bonnet? Boy it looks good over there and sunk cost sucks.

      Also this may be a stupid question, but how would you recommend getting the strainer on a downwards angle ? as they tend to obviously clip to the bottom of the pump which usually sits level 🥴
