Do you know of a faster one.....cannot be your's as you can only do 171.5km/h!!! :P....oh and you cannot go around corners or stop!

I like that logic...... That means mine is faster than Aaron's too.... :)

yeh yeh everyone take the piss. mine is still the most powerfull in OZ (at the moment) so suck a fat lol

BTW....noticed how much noisier the Fuel pump is now that it's wired up with more voltage!

how many times do I need to tell you. its not tuned on the e85 yet because of the boost problem.

yeh it's much louder. i dont think the Walbro's are designed to take our standard 6-9V or whatever it is.

so it's a petrol tune but running E85? or it's an E85 tune running petrol? or it's a petrol tune running petrol but at 20-22psi?

I'm lost!

its running e85.

the 285kw figure is from the 98 tune.

Cihan just updated the fuel map for e85 but didnt advance any timing or try to gain any power from it until i can fix the boost issue. im only on 85 because i know the ethanol will handle the extra pressue, i was too worried that 98 wouldnt.

why do you think i have such shitty fuel economy compared to scott?

You two Bitches - stop bitching.

Both head to the strip and post 1/4 mile times please.

    • The above video is working normally. That is, that's how the right hand indicator should cancel when rotating the wheel left.
    • I noticed that I could see creatures on the moon when I turned my new headlights on. I thought I should check the alignment. It's pretty rudimentary but I just grabbed some dry wall and put it against my tablet and made sure the beam was below the height on the headlights. Ie the beam is at 600mm on my car, I just made it lower than that 7.5m away.  Not the best but it'll do until I can do it properly at the local shops.   
    • As @Duncan said - the bores are most likely to cop it. But anything can and does happen. Rods are cheap. Rods are good. The work to rebuild the motor will be 30x the price of rods. You won't notice it.
    • Yeah car has 110 on the clock. That said the front turbo (that exploded) doesn't seem to be the original, it has a S1 part number but the car is a series 3. Yep, in the cat is where I first found the turbine wheel pieces - a couple decent sized ones, then a whole lot of fragments.  I agree, probably makes sense to upgrade parts that are being replaced. Things like rods would be 'nice' but realistically it seems unlikely they would need replacing. I was hoping that it was a case that they generally f**k up the valves but not the bore, or vice versa. Is it generally the scour damage rather than ceramic bits getting mashed into the piston tops / valves? I tried a search but couldn't find any threads with pics from the guts of a motor that's had this happen. 
    • Front seats now in, fixing a little rust then front doors sealed up again finished. had to install a fire extinguisher within arms distance of drivers seat for hill climb regulations. little bit of good old silo diff action lol IMG_9146.mov
