New hiccup this afternoon whilst tuning. Slipped teeth was the diagnosis. Will hopefully be fixed tomorrow and hopefully finished. Car was making impressive figures before that and sounded great.

1123nm of torque was reached early also struggled for traction at anything over 2000rpm which is a pain.

Here is a pic for the meantime

lookin the goods Scottie.

Can't wait t'il u can post some final dyno results buddy

So far it isyes. Traction really is the biggest killer for me at the moment. Anyone got ideas of how to help with it? Currently running 275 semi slicks on 18's also have BC racing coilovers. Im going to look at softening the rears up. In regards to boost levels Richo was playing around with it at 25-30psi so will see in coming days what it performs best at

1100nm of torques is impressive...good luck hanging onto that :P

GTR rear guards and 315's will help that, but really with the power your looking at, nothing is going to save you :devil:

Im interested to see what he gets out of it once he can finally put his boot through the right pedal!

Most reckon semi's will show a lower power figure aswell. Try and get some cheapy rubber on there so you can compare apples with apples.If it spins, sit in the boot :yes:

Hope it goes well.

Funny you mention sitting in the boot. I said to the tuner to just throw some of the old motors he has lying around in there for some weight haha

You can mess with any dyno, Greg's V6 rodeo gave somewhere around 350kw on the dyno at our most recent dyno day.....lol

accurate would be running it as you will on the street/strip. no point talking numbers if you can't actually show them when it counts.

imo.

Agree to some extent.

Most 'talk numbers' using street tyres on the dyno. No doubt the results will be compared with others cars so if he is using a tyre that is claimed to produce a lower reading there will always be that differential, let alone the dyno and a gazillion other things, which will make comparisons more difficult.

    • Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
