I Think Im Overboosting

If he is running lines straight to the wastegate, then no amount of restrictors can lower the boost, no matter what you do.

Restricting air/pressure to the wastegate will only INCREASE the boost not lower it.

Ruxis, I can come have a quick look over the car soon for you and make sure it's all hooked up properly (Didn't watch the vid) and check that nothing should detonate.

Also, if you paint the FMIC black then it's not likely to be spotted by the police to begin with, so no issue there.

in the vid there is a feed to the wastegate

but there is another vac line t'd into it which runs to the stock vac point for the stock boost solenoid (pre turbo in the metal bends that come from the rocker covers)

Yeah mate, I'm in the gong.

I'll be out this Thursday, but I can do it the one after if you're fine to wait?

Just PM me closer to the day to remind me.

Nope, your car already has an intercooler, it is just a bigger one, why would it be illegal?

i heard its illegal cause if you hit someone itll kill them.

sounds stupid but i guess so is alot of laws

fmic are illegal if there aren't any facory mounting points but get an engineer to inspect the brackets made up to fit and quality of welds and your all good that's why GTR's are legal with fmic- stock mounting points- well thats how it is in SA

Next time look up the relevant ADRs or call up whoever in your state does your defect inspections and ask them. They aren't illegal.

The only way it would be illegal is it if you modified structural components of the car or mounted it on the front of your bumper so it could cause injury.
