torque readings froma roller dyno that are around 800-900 nm are hardly accurate. they are miscalculated thats for sure. hub pack is the ONLY way to accuratly measure torque.

yeah stock bottom end... just had drift super cut here this weekend at mallala which i managed to win! on my last run the wastegate line broke off and i overboosted to 2.5 BAR boost...... motor kept it going and loved it lol

heres a vid of the final.

thanks dude.. i need to get cracking on it and so some more work... few things need improving now.

I have a facebook fan page if any one is interested! feel free to visit my page here

here's a few clips from DSC this weekend.

very nice rims you picked up there,17" too!!! still saving up the rest of cash to get mine rebuilt, looking at 17x10 and 17x13, ill see how that will work.... on a stagea :P

nice i got a stag as a daily... i'll trial fit my 17's on it when the rock up :P

That sound gives me wood!!! Cant wait till mine is slapped together... What gate you running champ? I haven't read the first page for ages >_<

was a 38mm gate... now a 44.. doesnt sound so tough with the larger gate sadly :(

those blast pipes are for sale atm $580 for them. not cheap but it is titanium... whole system would be 1500-2K

Aww really? =/ I have a 44mm MV-R Tial going on and was hoping it would sound like that clip..... Still, must sound pretty good.....

Is that spool sound just due to the surge ported cover???????

Yeah along with the fact there's no afm in front of the turbo.

Good shit!!! I'll have the same setup, just a 4 inch pipe into some sort of airbox....

    • 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.
