hmmmm

always problems when chasing power in my experience

the amount of crap I had to put up with in the S13 to get it to 225rwkw you wouldn't want to hear.

And after I sold it the guy who bought it wrote it off after four weeks, I was so upset for some reason

[rb25]

damn.

yeah, its never ending money being poured into it now. but after tomorrow the spending will stopp and the fun will start got my oil catch can setup in too. ill post a pic, looks 'tech'.

[rb25]

catch cans....

[Nexus9]

now that's a nice setup for the catch cans

[Nexus9]

alwsys seen them on the otherside where there is more room, but I much prefer them on the side you have them on.

Any probs with the heat from the turbo heating the oil up?

[rb25]

they make a hissing noise :s i think its ok. its actually weird, you can hear it change from one can to the other when coming on/off boost.

[Nexus9]

so when are we hitting Willowbank to see what it is capable of?

[Nexus9]

[rb25]

yeah they get pretty hot, im still 'testing' i guess. i might move them if its a problem. gav seemed to think it was ok tho so i think they'll stay that way. i've actually cleaned up the hoses a bit too - hidden them (if thats possible)

[rb25]

lol. i wanna get it down the quater soon. never done it before :s

Well I think I might organise a SAU T&T night at Willowbank in the next couple of weeks.

Good to do it whilst the weather is still nice and cool.

Most probably a Wednesday night

i see you're bidding for a powerfc.. watch those second hand ones! i got burt a little. the hc was rooted but he gave me back 200 for it. and the ecu is an older version rom and doesnt do data logging thus the tune method gav is using.

[Nexus9]

You should be getting low 13's with the setup you have now, some people have been getting 12's now with the standard turbo, just takes practice I guess

[rb25]

T & T sounds sweet. i guess im ready! cept tyres but i'll just let mine down a bit.

Yeah just an EOI at this time.

More than likely get a new one from Nengun for $1100 with hand controller.

If the guy goes as low as I want, we will see

[rb25]

yeah, i can launch it nearly perfect on the street, but the track is another story... very sticky, another few hundred rpm id say on launch and a much harder follow thru into the revs in 1st & 2nd

[rb25]

get the new one. im spewin i didnt - too impaitient. :headspin:

Yeah I was so close to a thirteen last week, except for the bald tyres.

I borrowed Jay's tyre pressure guage and thought I had let them down to 25 PSI, when I went to the servo to fill them up one was on 33psi and the other was on 31psi, so his guage wasn't quite accurate lol

[Nexus9]

I was goin to offer the guy $850-$900, otherwise yeah I think a new one is in order, plus warranty has a lot to offer

[rb25]

spewin about the gauge! i was thinking if i get semi-serious about drag racing id widen my stock rims to 275/50/16 or something. just cut them down the middle and weld a big hoop in them
