nah not the OP6

its the recast version bigger wastegate hole etc

sorry no pic of the boost curve

it hasnt been fixed yet because Im tossing up if im going to buy a .82 external setup now that the turbo is off the car

ok ok update...taken my car to c&v performance today...waiting to see how it goes.

I'm interested to see what C&V do with it. He tunes my car. Ive heard some bad feedback on him, but as far as i can tell, he's very good at what he does.

No messing around. No chit chat. In and out. And despite popular belief, he has plenty of experience on Skylines/imports.

Just make sure you let him know you dont want it tuned to within one inch of its life, coz he'll do it. lol

They do a lot of drag cars, and like to get every last drop out of them on the dyno. If you gave him free reign, i have no doubt you would find a nitrous bottle in your boot :P

No messing around. No chit chat. In and out.

That foe some people is a bad reference on its own, as a lot of these guys will tell you they get an endless supply of people wanting to talk shit with them all day.

nnnnnnnnnnnnnn newwwwwwwwwwwwsssss update, ok back from c&v performance and im pulling a ripe 280kw's at 19psi....droppping to in high revs 16psi...due to weak actuator(i was told). any other fix to this????

now...they didnt find any leaks but i suspect...that the last time i pulled apart the intercooler piping and put it back together (after the last dyno) i am presuming it was fixed then.

now im looking to get a 19psi actuator which i have been advised will give me a bit more power throughout the top end of revs as its falling off.

ive got to say....INSTANT, INSANE, BOOST ALL THE WAY TO REDLINE .

my semi slicks are frying taking off from cruising in second gear.

only downside i see..is that im getting knock of 40 when giving it stick...?? is that safe???

i will post the dyno sheet tomorrow...thanks for everyones contribution and help.

i will tell you all how it goes once ive put this bigger actuator in...dissapointed in the hks actuator as its not holding that wastegate shut...

any advice or direction to a 19psi actuator would be great.

level of 40 knock is reasonable levels of detonation - check the tune or just make sure all is ok

see if backing out 1 or 2psi removes that level of knocking, if so it might need 1 or 2deg taken out on the map somehwere

keep an eye on it (covered in the PFC FAQ) at 60 the engine check light will flash

    • Update: I got the magnet out. I bought 3 different flexible magnetic reach tools, but none of them worked. The magnet on the tip was all less than 2lbs of force, so i had to buy a special cylindrical magnet that had a pull force of 9lbs.  The magnet finally came in the mail yesterday, so i got under the car to get to work. The super strong magnet isn't that long, so i only have about 1 finger pinch lengths to hold it. I was so scared when i was going in the hole, that the 9lb magnet would just fly away inside the oil pan never to be seen again, but i had my butt cheeks clenched and finger gripped on that thing so tight, i managed to get it to suck the other magnet out.  It was a victory for me last night.         
    • Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!
    • Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.
    • Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 😃
    • You're just describing how type certification works. Personally I would be shocked to discover that catalytic converter is not in the stock mounting position. Is there a bracket on the transfer case holding the catalytic converter and front pipe together? If so, it should be in stock position.
