cool, Id be interested to see that graph

I'll post it tonight...

Hi RiggaP..

With that setup, i would expect less power on a hot day due to the stock intercooler with 13psi...

The turbo wouldnt like this long term i would suspect..

Additionally, the bleeder i daresay wouldnt hold the 13psi up the top end...

I would expect less power on a hot day with any car. Just another reason why dyno figures cant really be trusted. This doesnt alter the fact that I got a reading of 195rwkw :P

True, long term exposure to 13psi is probably tempting fate, but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it. I've been running 13psi for over 12 months now.

The bleeder I'm using actually holds boost better than an AVCR. BMT Performance proved this to me with their dyno :D

shootout mode is ok though as is take the temps into account and ajusts the values to compensate.

So based on these round figures my set-up would make?

Power Fc

AVCR set to 12 psi

3"cat back, 3" catco hi flow cat, 3" dump pipe with splitter front pipe

pod filter

GFB BOV

new timing belt

z32 air flow meter

also how much would a front mount add?

    • My fob has never worked, I once attempted to follow the procedure to re-key it, (I have other fobs for the car alarm thing in there). I actually have three of them. Do aftermarket alarms take over the pairing mechanism for central locking? Or do they piggyback off it? I suppose it depends on the system, right? I have four sets of keys/keyfobs. One definitely works, one I think works, one definitely doesn't work, and I have the OEM one that has never worked :p. Is this fixable/workable/whatever? I mean I know it's beyond "just clean it" but how *do* they get synced up?
    • It's actually a really weird comparison... the MX5 is on another level and I kinda question this comparison at all. It'd be closer to compare it to a GTI/Golf/Hatch anything that kicks around. NC MX5 with a turbo has the right to go up with and beat the FD RX7 or 180SX or any other JDM hero car. That's the comparison that would really ruffle feathers.
    • @MBS206 you need more shed in your life... What sort of car is your mates race car?  Hopefully he returns the favour when you're ready to get cracking on yours! None of my mates are into cars so I don't have to worry about that as a distraction thankfully.  I have enough other distractions so I don't need that one too!  Between working 6 days a week (5 1/2 really so 55 hours or so per week), both kids have basketball almost every week night (including Friday night in Melbourne - 2 hours away), my daughter plays netball as well, my sons footy has started now and I coach his under 14's side as well as I'm on the Footy club committee this year, I ride motorbikes every spare Sunday I can find, plus trying to be some sort of a husband.  Life is a busy little exercise at the moment!  I wish there were 8 or 9 days in a week sometimes!
    • Ha ha, that is very true!  I'm too scared to leave it in the position though, it tingles my balls seeing it like that!
    • Which one did you buy? I have always wanted a decent inspection camera but have been unable to tell whether something is cheap junk or cheap junk chunk sold at just a bigger markup
