After installing my FMIC myself (cut hand with 5' grinder and punched myself in the eye with a socket wrench) I had it dyno tuned by Hardcore and running 14 psi it made 284.9 hp. I'm really happy with that as it is my daily driver but my BOV is really noisy now and I am considering going back to factory.

Thats 212.5kw for those that are wondering.

What quarter time do youz estimate for that?

:D

Sweeeet Terry!! Post up some pics I wanna see that front bar with the intercooler in. Don't you like the BOV? Is it plumb back?

It is a Monza (HKS ripoff copy) I used to like it but is really loud now with the extra boost. If you want it I will swap your factory pipe for mine plus some $$.

hmmm

Is it the stock turbo?

and do you run it 14 psi all day every day?

do you have after market fuel management?

I would estimate very low 13's to very high 12's with right tyres down the 1/4

good stuff..

If u want, when i come to pick up those tyres this weekend, I can bring on the Blitz I have, and you can stick that on for a quick try if it has the same flange - just to try a different one (oh, and I want to hear how it sounds myself before i do my cooler :))

I've got a spare R33 crossover and BOV too.. are you using that stock boost solenoid still (or do you have an EBC) ? Maybe we can do a swap??

Predator - Turbosmart manual boost controller and I am running a Microtech MT12

Yeah that would be good bring up the stock as I have just blocked my standard BOV off

Nexus9 - Was thinking of upgrading fuel pump. Is that what you mean?

Maybe I met cyrus and his GOOD luck rubbed offen me

They tell me that 14psi is safe for standard turbo but looking at upgrading soon

Nice job on the front bar mate!

Nah it's ok about the BOV thanks I have a Blitz Super Sound which I really like. Try one if you don't like yours, the sound isn't TOOO loud I think. I was alongside a 180 today that had a VERY loud atmo and I think it would have been too loud for my taste. Course I'm only running standard boost too...after I get a new ebc and fmic mine might be too loud too :)

Too loud BOV feels kinda embarassing to me

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
