Where did you get the steering wheel done, looks awesome.

With the gearbox and ECU now imminent - I'm thinking I might do the hot side at the same time.

I'm no expert in this area - so please excuse my ignorance.  I'm currently around 500kw at the wheels (2.7L, T76, Trust manifold, Trust dump, External gate etc). 

I would like to make a little more power - but have it come on earlier.  is that possible?

So my question - what setup do I want hot side to complainant the 2.7L / Albins? 

I appreciate feedback and any recommendations.

Thanks D

When do you see full boost with your current turbo?

I think your choices are limitless. you just need to decide how much power you want, pick a turbo that will do it and you’ll be miles a head

Hello 600kw and epic response 

there is no questioning how mental EFR turbos are for response compared to what else is on the market

HELL YES!!!!! I can't wait to see this beast in action !!!!

[IMACUL8]

They definitely not the best looking turbo. but I'm hoping the response and drive will help me over it

Shifter arrived this week......

Time for a update.

Sadly - trying to buy the best box money could buy has turned out to be another drama.  Still don't have all the items I need to install the box - this is now just ridiculous.  Going on 8 months - and cant install the box they sent me as items are missing from the package that I PAID for !

Linkage bar, adapter to fit shifter and strain gauge all MIA. Abducted by aliens it appears ..

I have sat silent and said nothing this whole time - patiently waiting .. and nothing has happened...

I am so over this Albins box - and parties involved.  

Question I put to my fellow SAU'ers is this.

I have a buyer for my Albins - I can just move this box on and forget about the whole nightmare of trying to own an Albins - and order a Samsonas.  I spoke with them yesterday - they were sympathetic to my situation and were keen to help - but I'm looking at 5 months wait (which for some reason doesn't even seem that bad considering how long I have waited for the Albins).

Let this be a lesson to anyone looking to buy a new sequential - don't make my mistake.  

Is really a shame what has become of this - you spend top dollar expecting the best product, service, etc - and just get nothing.  

What you think boys - wait it out - or f*ckem and move onto Samsonas?

Opinions?

We all know that is what @Dose Pipe Sutututu is gonna say!

That sucks man. Are you dealing with Albins direct or have you gone through a supplier ? Every man and their dog is running an Albins in the offroader buggies here and can't stress how good their parts support is.

Obviously I don't know their finer details, but personally I would stick with them as I personally can't make peace with dealing with overseas transmission supplier anymore and you might find yourself in a similar situation.

That said, have you considered the current Quaife sequential supplied by Tim at SVS in the UK if all goes to shit ? I'm not aware of anyone using one in Oz and could be another option ?
