FAAAAARRRK THAT MAN...thats freakin awesome, I thought you might struggle to make 270rwkw, man that is a killer result! ! There is no way I'm going a HG or Garret now, it does hammer on the road right?? ! ! ! Big kudos to you guys man.........:cheers: :cheers:

PS - thats with a screamer not plumbed back hey - bit worried there..

yeap, with the screamer vented, and it hammers on the road, so awesome to drive.

with it plumbed up, it made 260rwkw~ @ 17psi[still better results then a HG SS1PU ;) and boost comes on earlier ]

I'm only against screamers for legality reasons but if it gets you an extra 20-30rwkw then.....:wacko: ??? Just wondering why don't you extend the screamer and 'hide' it behind the exhaust pipe so when the popo open the bonnet they will not know its not plumbed back apart from the sound..?

Its normally when they hear the screamer that u worry

Weak :)

Nice results Dori34, I saw something was mentioned about VCT, was it not working?

cheers mate, yeah we connected it up at the solonoid (cause my old tuner d/c it as he heard a light tapping sound internally when vct was activated) but we couldn't find out why last night it wasn't working, so that will be saved for another day when there is more time.

It is a good result, but 280 @ 17-18psi is what we always expected..

Bit worried about the high end surge though.

think I have acquired an npc farbotic clutch and flywheel on the cheap...woop woop. :banana:

to be honest, i was expecting 280~ at 21psi (no higher)

and i made it with less boost, so im cheering.

npc, good choice, get it fitted and back on the dyno asap!

Better, based on what? The SS1PU still has a stronger midrange despite your boost coming on earlier and you running a screamer pipe, look at where the power comes on and how much of it. When you compare the graphs, it reveals something similar to my prediction of the drag race between Artz and I. Be interesting to see what happens when you get VCT sorted though, it may fix that little "trough" you have in the middle of the graph and give you a stronger midrange to overtake the SS1PU. Though, it would also be interesting to see what happens if Kasko can get his SS1PU to hold 20psi up top. Either way, congrats on the results, can't argue with a good top end and you sound happy with your purchase. Also congrats to JEZ who seems to be the man to go to in NSW :thumbsup:

Really, I was expecting closer to 300 by then. .:D

I think if we can match Mick-o GTX results or even get close, we're winning..

Its a big ask of the little kando but..

Dori once you get your VCT and surge sorted, I would like to see you get it dyno'd at unigroup.

unigroup graphs always seem to have so much area under the curve, but im not sure if thats scaling or actual results..

ive asked mick_o to do the same and come to jez, would be interesting to see..

Im confident you guy will catch the GTX on eflex, his results were similar on 98.

u might match, i probably won't lol

when is this drag race happening that you speak of Birds?

VCT will definitely fix the lil trough betwen 100-110km

When I get my frikken car back :/

Have to get it out of the way soonish because I'll be switching to E-flex after a month or so of driving on 98. Time to see what an ethanol powered SS1PU can do :thumbsup:

    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
    • Nah, I'm not an a-hole, ha ha!   I do like the colour match. Some of the carbon fibre wraps are quite freaking horrible. There's one a local company I know uses, and it looks damn good! Also very very expensive per metre to buy! ha ha ha It might be cheaper to respray the roof than use the good CF Wrap, ha ha!
    • Please noooooooo 😭 As for wrap, no thank you mate, I've seen and used "carbon fibre" wrap before, and for these hard tops, they look soooo good when colour matched Like this >>>
