It's only farting, it should still drive well.. Just block it off like I mentioned if you are worried. When's the tune? It's about time I ran mine, but Calder is closed at the moment. Nearest drag

I'm very keen to take mine down there. But as its still in Jetwreck's dad's garage I'm just not sure how it will be running this week. I was thinking about going in a week or 2 and was hoping Jetwreck's would be ready to trek there also. Keen to see the 13 sec line broken

What kp/h did dale hit when he got the 13.8?

100mph or piss fart away I think.

13.8@ 100.11MPH :yes:

I;'d like to but not ready at this stage..what time do you think it would get??

I'd be betting a 13.6, maybe better.

Your car has the same turbo as mine, with a bunch of other supporting mods and a damn good tune. ;)

Theo ran 13.9 with 206rwkw, and yours would have to have at least 30 odd KW more than mine.

Well my car is back together but I need a new BOV. Don't think I can sort that before tomorrow so I'm out for this week sorry guys

It's about time I ran mine, but Calder is closed at the moment. Nearest drags is Heathcote, 3 hours away. I may as well drive up for this.

It's bleeding off boost which sucks.

Tune prob not for a while. As much as I want an emanage. I have spent way to much money of late. The bank balance needs to recoup. But is has nismos so it will have to do the job for now.

If I do blank off the bov could it cause any damage?

Maybe a trip up to Sydney and wsid is due for you. I bet we could get a good stag turn out if you were also running. Plus Craig might sort his shit out also.

I went back to a stock stall converter, no hope of boost off the line for me, most of you would have me by 3 car lengths at the start while I crawl away.

But I would drop the high stall back in, just to upset Craig, if I was coming up sometime. :)

Blitz dry cotton panel filter, my own 2.5" mandrel bent suction pipe, Sierra S2 Highflow (ceramic coated), stock actuator with 5mm preload, plenum spacer, 3 inch dump (ceramic coated), 3 inch midpipe with 100cpi cat (ceramic coated), Fujitsubo Legalis exhaust and the brake wire cut mod.

Stock airbox, stock intercooler, stock computer, stock injectors, stock fuel pump.

There is other stuff, but not that directly effect performance.

The key mod in my case; is the loose nut behind the steering wheel. :whistling:

How much stall do you get off the line with the high flow Dale?

This is the issue I had; I could only stall the car to 2500 RPM; which left me with 5-7 Psi leaving the line. It got away ok; but nothing like it does on the street. At 2400 RPM it was still registering vacuum on the boost gauge.

I believe Sky^rt had a similar issue at Calder building boost at stall; but even knobbled, he ran a 12.9. :woot:

A full blooded launch would've put him closer to mid 12.

On the street; I can stall it up, it takes around 2 seconds to reach 2500 RPM and once it reaches 5 Psi, it whips up to 3200 RPM and 15 Psi.

Release brake; the torque split gauge goes to it's maximum, it spins the rear wheels pretty hard for about 4 metres, then pisses off.

The difference in launch is MASSIVE.

I firmly believe a "Street Launch" would've had me around 13.6.

Such is life. ;)

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By R3N3 · Posted

      Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..

      Does 98ron contain ethanol?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.

      Will I Need A Retune After Cahanging My Catalytic Converter ?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.
