An Englishman, a Irishman and a Scotsman are all in Saudi Arabia, sharing

a smuggled crate of booze when, all of a sudden, Saudi police rush in and

arrest them. The mere possession of alcohol is a severe offence in Saudi

Arabia, so for the terrible crime of actually being caught consuming the

booze, they are all sentenced to death! However, after many months and

with the help of very good lawyers, they are able to successfully appeal their

sentences down to life imprisonment.

By a stroke of luck, it was a Saudi national holiday the day their trial finished, and the extremely

benevolent Sheikh decided they could be released after receiving just 20 lashes each

of the whip.

As they were preparing for their punishment, the Sheikh announced: "It's

my first wife's birthday today, and she has asked me to allow each of you one

wish before your whipping."

The Irishman was first in line, he thought for a while and then said:

"Please tie a pillow to my back." This was done, but the pillow only lasted 10 lashes before the whip went

through. When the punishment was done he had to be carried away bleeding

and crying with pain.

The Englishman was next up. After watching the Irishman in horror he said

smugly: "Please fix two pillows to my back." But even two pillows could

only take 15 lashes before the whip went through again and the Englishman was

soon led away whimpering loudly (as they do).

The Scotsman was the last one up, but before he could say anything, the

Sheikh turned to him and said: "You are from a most beautiful part of the

world and your culture is one of the finest in the world. For this, you

may have two wishes!"

"Thank you, your Most Royal and Merciful highness", The Scotsman replied.

"In recognition of your kindness, my first wish is that you give me not

20, but 100 lashes."

"Not only are you an honorable, handsome and powerful man, you are also

very

brave". The Sheikh said with an admiring look on his face. "If 100 lashes

is what you desire, then so be it. And your second wish, what is it to be?"

the Sheikh asked. "Tie the Englishman to my back."

    • No intention of driving the car the way it's set up now, just wanting to make sure I haven't made any mistakes along the way so that the tune can go smoothly, I don't want to waste anyone's time with stupid issues. And of course I intend to get it towed to the dyno in a completed state 😅 I have the base fuel pressure with the vacuum disconnected set at about 40psi, which I believe is at least relatively close to stock fuel pressure, maybe I'll have a fiddle with the reg and see what happens. For all I know I could be wasting my time with this and I should just plumb it in and see what the tuner reckons. I just find it a bit strange that it seems to be under so much load just free revving, but maybe that's just a result of the turbo slowing down the exhaust gasses and making a restriction in the flow, with no boost to compensate.
    • The boy just hit up google translate and it worked a treat, he said step one was "please urinate with precision and elegance", he then sent me the correct translation  I get some new loctite for the small fixtures tomorrow and get some "dort" going after that 🤣
    • Right, so is the fuel pressure the same as it was previously? If not, well, it's not going to work well. I can understand the theory I assume you are going for, which is: "Run it N/A, and if I have the original AFM, and same amount of fuel and intake air as previously, the fact there's a turbo in my exhaust should still make it run" Which it... might? Provided you don't actually change how much air or fuel is going into the car.. or getting out. But if you have changed that, all bets are off. What is the purpose to even have the car run this way? To get it to a tuner? And if the goal is to limp it to a tuner, you're still going to what - plumb up a whole intercooler system and new intake in the parking lot out front before your tune......?
    • Haha yea it's a bit of a weird setup at the moment, just wanted to make sure I sorted out any headaches before dyno day. At the moment I've changed the exhaust manifold, turbo and downpipe, 460lph fuel pump and rising rate reg as well as the previously mentioned headstuds and gasket. The nistune was already mapped for the car as it was and drove around for a few months no worries. The plan is to run flex fuel hence the big pump, which I've wired direct to the battery through a relay to avoid voltage issues.
    • Um. Was the ECU the same as the one previously there? I know R33's needed R32 GTST ECU's or other tomfoolery to run Nistune. This is such a wild setup. Most people would plumb in the turbo then not drive the car (i.e tow it to a tuner). What's actually changed since it last ran?
