Osc@r, I think Macka was having a go at me and rev, with our stock snails, we haven't yet put our snails on steroids, yet.

Macka, what was the best time you ran before you changed your turbo? I didn't think we would have been able to push so deep into the 13's with the stock turbo, but it looks like the 'plex is providing some good times.

See'ya:burnout:

Sorry I thought you both had them, then Macka really should be doing much better than you?

17psi? What boost do you currently run it at, or is it hard to tell with your bleeder/spike valve?

When is your EBC getting here, can't wait to see you beat Macka, then he'll have to wind his boost up.

See'ya:burnout:

Works, Good luck, let me know when your going down to the plex, I'll come to see if you improve your times.

Macka, I'm not batting for the other side, just promoting some friendly rivalry, you know I love you the most.

See'ya:burnout:

I've had a play with the s-afc II and it seems pretty easy to tune. Without a dyno I have already tuned in some fat-ass power across the rev range, used up a bit of fuel tho'. Richen the bottom end and lean the top end and bingo! The mid range is a little tricky

I am quite amazed at the amount of sting the s-afc gets out of the stock motor.

I think I'll aim for another 0.4 sec improvement, without toluene, on the good ol' 205's and 10psi.

rev, let us know when the car will debut with the S-AFCII, I'm sure a 13 flat would be impressive on the stock turbo. How can you monitor the A/F ratio of you car for tuning? or do you adjust the fuel and see if you increase the power?

Good luck for the 0.4sec improvement.

    • Yeah, my moulds and seals are 32 years old now. I think I will continue to not use a pressure washer on it.
    • I hear the old "I'd never use a pressure washer on my motorbike" BS in the dirtbike community too.  The only people that have had a problem from using a pressure washer on anything are the people that aren't using them properly.  If you hold the wand any more than 45 cms away from pretty much anything (radiators, wiring connectors, paint, etc) you aren't going to cause any damage.  We've had detailers wreck moulds and seals on cars at work before and the only reason why is they held the pressure washer too close and on the one spot for too long.  If you have 5% more brain power than a detailer then you know not to not do that and you'll never have a problem.
    • I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.    
    • I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet
    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
