Steve, Nah, was hoping to do them first, but my stock turbo died:(, might be due to running 17psi:D Will still do the internals, once I've paid for all the turbo stuff:D

You know some of us are coming across for the JMS drift day in Adelaide? Would be nice to catch up with you:D

single would be easier .....is it more laggy or less gonig single .... i get confused :D oh well im jealous nice shiny new more powerful turbo would be awesome!!

No probs :) just dont backseat drive and nobody will get hurt :)

btw paul my mum says she hasnt had 'the pleasure' from you yet :) haha

i'll do mine monday :) not that its goin to be anything thrilling

Mum told me off to leaving my parking fines on final notice - ihow wa si to know it reflect son her credit rating *shrugs*

not bad thanks - my brakes are fixed :) one of my brake lines were snapped completely in two but sat on such a way on the caliper that i didnt leak fluid too bad and imstill alive so its all good ...... guys kept on repeating what a lucky girl i was!!

whats the job for Liz?

Its funny how all the best laid plans can change in an instant isnt it:D How bizaar that a stock turbs would shit itself at 17psi...hehehe - as long as you had fun killing it.

When are you guys getting over here? Perhaps we'll have to arrange a SAU bbq or something? cos I think there will be some guys from east as well

    • What are your plans for your blow off valves? Purely plumb back? How soft will the spring in them be? AFM can be tricky to get super smooth and nice, especially depending on the rest of the system, and then can be very easily upset if something slightly changes. IE, even if you run recirc blow off valves, you could still see issues getting it to behave at certain load points as turbos might start to spool, but you release the throttle but it's not enough pressure to crack the bov open to recirc, and you can end up with reversion which can cause double metering, and hence dumping of fuel into the system, and stalling the engine.   If you're going to run a map sensor for closed loop boost control from the ECU, what makes you want to keep the AFM?    
    • It's not bad, it's just not flexible. And say if you have any leaks between the MAF and plenum, well then your load axis goes out the window. Here's a real world scenario, I blew off an intercooler hose last track day, as the clamp decided to Bluetooth itself somewhere. Still continued to do 2 laps and drive it to the pub for a couple of beers then home. Good luck doing that with a MAF setup 
    • Is MAF load really that bad? I'm not trying to do big power, my only real desire is VCAM and flex fuel support so I'm not terrified of blowing my engine apart from CA's appalling 95 RON "premium" fuel. Stuff like playing with closed loop boost control and really dialing in my transient fueling and ignition are frankly just to prove to myself I remembered something from uni.
    • Thats what ive been doing. Ive got a million questions but i know theyve probably all been answered before at some stage. Todays research included nismo heritage seat covers, s3 projector headlight retrofits and how to remove/paint the rocker covers
