GTS-t VSPEC Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Yeah, could be the 044 providing heaps of fuel pressure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob77 Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 His peak power is around 6600rpm, I think mine will peak later going off previous dyno runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTS-t VSPEC Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Rob, I'm hoping my turbo makes good power, it will be laggier than Aidwins due to the larger exhaust housing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob77 Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 I might just wait till I have the old rims cleaned up and the new rims ready to go before I put them on then. Then maybe I can go see your mate and get a good deal on some 18" rubber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTS-t VSPEC Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Rob, Yeah, the stock manifold restricts power to earlier, aswell as the stock intake manifold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob77 Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Also looking at his power curve he has 12psi from 4000rpm onwards, which is good. I dont get 12psi till around 4600 It will be good to get the wolf3d into mine then we can all compare cos it will only be the turbo's that are diff on mine and aidwins car, you will have the manifold done so its a bit different but same ecu.

GTS-t VSPEC Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Rob, Sure thing, might be worth getting them re-powder coated, will look like new:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob77 Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Yeah, they need a cleanup around the rim where they have come into contact with a kerb and have rubbed... but apart from that they are pretty clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTS-t VSPEC Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Rob, The boost not coming on till later is the lag. I'm sure the management will help. I'm hoping the manifold will keep my lag minimised:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTS-t VSPEC Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Rob, I'm sure the rims can get skimmed on the edges, will look like new again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTS-t VSPEC Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Wonder who went on the A12's cruise tonight, pity my car wasn't ready:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob77 Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Looks like my car will be at the panel beater from tuesday till thursday cos I need it monday. Ah well, least I aint paying for the rear spoiler to be fixed up, its costing me $250 to get the boot lid latch hole welded up and painted, a pin dent and 2 key scratches to be fixed up all on the bootlid.

GTS-t VSPEC Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Yeah, but his clutch is holding so far, I'm amazed. Might get him a twin-plate clutch:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob77 Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Yup pisses me off, I have such good paintwork (for a 10 year old car) and people keep on hitting it. I am starting to try and rush the car into the work so I can get it all cleaned up and into HPI (if they want it) before anyone else hits/damages it.

rob77 Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 The stock clutch wont last long he'll go for a drive and try and take off hard and it'll spit the dummy, we all know this has happened to heaps of people before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
