Well said Craig, f##ks me why people want to keep re-inventing the wheel...

didnt someone re invent the wheel?

to make it BALL BEARING! Thats what i did :) :)

Just seems to be a contingent that keep going "blah blah from such and such, says blah, so why would a dump pipe do anything?"

There's a crapload of evidence that says a dump pipe is seven shades of awesome; so why argue, just benefit from the research & investment of others. Never once seen a dump pipe on a factory car that couldn't be improved on.

sure thing!! at the rate we're going now i am going to make more than enough.. i am not sure we will do this again, so i will have some spares for a few latecomers, i've also noticed in the last 5 months a bit influx of volvo owners so we'll try cater for them too.

picking up flange today.. so we're getting closer to starting!

If it is anything like the beastly unit he made for me or the even larger (!!!!) dump pipe he put on his own M35, you will certainly notice quite a difference :P

He said its bigger its virtually a 3.5" from the mouth of the weird looking flange, to 3" connecting to the rest of the exhaust..

what do you think I should notice?

1. Definitely the response from the turbo. With little to no restriction on the exhaust side, it will come on boost harder and earlier.

2. More power throughout the rev range as well although it will be more noticeable in the low and mid revs.

Only down side (if you can call it that) is that you may have a little trouble with your turbo getting enough air from the intake... I know I did.

Maybe hit him up for a suction pipe as well while you are there on Saturday.

So, another week has passed. How is everything progressing? I know everyone's busy and it's only going to get busier as we get closer to Christmas.

Do you think an ETA of late this month is acheivable? (Can you tell I'm keen to get mine...? :) )

Cheers

Cheers Angus. I'll leave you with it for a while and keep an eye on this thread, or check in with you again in a few weeks.

BTW, that looks like an interesting project you've got going on in the pic.

      thanks for heads up on actuators - will sort something as back up or solution as yes dont need that have enough trouble but no doubt some addition of something to spares boxes is required yes have a clue about WTAC but nothing has been officially put out yet so will wait to see exact details Pro class is, has been and will become a draw card for lap records and one off builds for show and thats about it I think - be interesting to see how open they make it Pro am is the old Pro in reality Open class will be split into 2 with slicks and 050's with no doubt slight variances in allowable drivers and changes in aero Clubsprint + apparently a true street class   They have to and are refreshing it all and bringing things up to current standards and need to 100% adhere to rules because whether people like it or not / or say it or not - for alot of competitors it is sheep stations and has been for a while when Im getting told I was illegal because i cut my rear bumper too high and yet others where in the grey areas of legality with everything from engines, suspension, ride heights and more serious influences it actually got quite out of control and heated this year so as much as I may be impacted by some of the changes and prob spit the dummy when I have to spend money changing things I think its a good thing for all

      I can’t tell if it’s suspension related or maybe wheel bearing or motor mount.  IMG_6209.MOV

      Start with a multimeter, and see if you're getting power at the TPS. There should be a manual for your car somewhere on these forums and it'll have the info for what closed TPS signal voltage is, and how it should sweep to full throttle. Same as for other sensors / valves.   Have you checked things like your base timing etc? See if anything looks amiss there too?

      here are 2x options to consider: https://www.selby.com.au/price-promise/tonewinner-sw-d6000-subwoofer.html https://www.apollohifi.com.au/svs-pb-3000-ported-subwoofer-black-ash-pre-order.html I'm waiting for a good BF/CM sale and will pull the trigger on a new sub, I do like the SVS PB-3000 (13") but you could nearly buy 2x Tonewinner D6000s (15")
