that's about the standard boost mate....is the boost controller turned on? generally it would be set between 12 and 14psi for a standard turbo :teehee:

oh really? I was told by a few people that standard they are meant to be set at about 7psi and 10psi is the 'safe' boost to run daily on stock turbo. Boost controller is turned on, but i haven't tried playing with it yet. Need to download and read the manual :/

Blowoff valve and wiring loom for ignition coils arrived today! Wuhoo! Off to mech on Friday to have it all fitted up, then as soon as my tuner has time, we'll give it the 5th "final tune", and everything will be awesome (probably wishful thinking given the epic issues, but you gotta stay positive, yeah?)...

Sounds like it should all be sorted :) it's good you got back on the horse, it can be really detering when these things happen.

I remember someone asking for a picture of my seat because we were bidding against each other months ago. So here it is.

Wow cool seat!

Update on our stag. We put a new fuel pump in (walbro) then started getting a hesitation on take off and light throttle. Checked voltage at the pump on idle and revs. 9 volts!! Haha didn't really want to run a new power cable etc so at first I was like il try earthing the fuel pump direct to the chassis and see what happens.

So did that and check voltage. 12.2 volts. Sweet! Went for a drive and the hesitation was gone!! Yay

Car went on the dyno again and made 180kws at all four wheels. Goes much harder now, wow haha

good to hear that it was a simple fix, but you need to be a little careful with just putting it straight to the chassis. Does the fuel pump still turn off after a few seconds when you turn the ignition on (but do not start the car?)

In a lot of these systems the ECU uses the earth to turn off the fuel pump when the ignition is on but the car does not start.

If your fuel pump does not turn off (may be hard to hear), you need to add a relay where pin 85 goes to the original ECU earth to the fuel pump (12v can come from any ignition switched source to pin 86). Then connect the old fuel pump earth to pin 30 and pin 87 then to the chassis earth.

Apexi pod, actually made induction noise a lot louder than I expected. Sounds great though :)

Gktech open ended wheel nuts on order, once they arrive I'll start playing with my spacers :-)

Managed to pick up two pairs of their 15-30mm spacers for $150

Should be able to fit my kakimotos over the front brakes now

      Hello Everyone

      Welcome.  Glad to hear that you have gained some knowledge that has helped you. I believe the only fix for the power steer belt is an electric conversion with a Holden astra pump. If you get a chance, post pics of your car, please. 🙂

      Boost level and torque curve

      By thx78 · Posted

      to have this type of adjustment possible with a curve as I wish, what budget (engine) should be planned?

      Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
