  1. FFS. I was there yesterday. I could have got them and thrown them on my bill!!!!! I don't know why anyone would consider the old dog T04Z now. Technology has moved on since 1912.
  2. Or put GT RS's or 2540's on there. That will give that feeling !
  3. They will 'feel' faster (esp on a 2.6) because of the transition onto power is so much more sudden. 5's (IMHO) really need a 2.8 + OR a high comp (9.2:1 +) 2.6 to work. The jury is still out on that result. 1/4 trap speeds don't add up. On the street the smaller turbo's will be faster and depending on what you're into more fun too. Coming out of a second gear corner and waiting for the snails to 'wakeup' SUCKS! You're halfway up the hill and it's "here we go!!!"... then you have to brake..... But it will look better on a dyno, so your pub talk will be a winner!
  4. Time will tell James. There was a hell of a lot of PT's at WTAC and I didn't hear of any failures. But surprised they're not watercooled though. Must be some reason for that!
  5. Any pics of the surge tank Brad? Got a mate that might be interested in one.
  6. Fullboost is a very misleading phrase. What is fullboost? 10, 15, 25, 40 psi? Twin scroll or just normal?
  7. I've been through 3 sets of coils with that stupid thing. One set lasted less than 2000 kms. Ripped it off and no problems. The Unigroup box is a ignitor replacement.
  8. + a little bit more!
  9. Where are you upto with it man? Ideas? What ideas are you talking about?
  10. Took my Twin spark off and ran a Unigroup Ignitor box, runs a lot better. Waste of time.
  11. Just waiting on parts and people, not to mention the shit talk in the thread. Starting fresh? 30 hands down!
  12. That rubber is pretty damn thick! My new return line from the reg is braided.
  13. Single will make more grunt for sure.... the question is if it can match the twins mid range and driveability!
  14. I took it to Unigroup and said "Give me a 5 litre surge tank under the car... GO".... I got that back. I've never had an issue... I have a Fuel pressure gauge in the car. i'll evenutally put a little fuel cooler like what Bobby did. i've seen the data that Unigroup has of warm/hot fuel and its just downright scary!
  15. Thats why I decided to run the -5's again. The whole time I was building the head it was "response, response, response". I have been assured it will crack 450 but im more interested in the mid range.... The goal is 400 by 5000 RPM.... I wasn't that far off it before it died. With the single, time will tell! A tad bummed I took the valve relief out as I qould have been around 9:4 - 9.5:1 but atleast it's not 8.5! Bring on the tune!
  16. No you don't. This stuff doesn't make your car melt to the ground in a pile of jelly like the internet rumours would have you believe!
  17. I dont know how I forgot to post this. It's my surge tank and AFM delete pipes. I painted the surge tank black so headlights didnt reflect off the alloy..... because im a nice bloke
  18. 1 carton? That's only good for a few hours!
  19. If it doesn't drive as well as the baby twins it will be ripped off straight away lol
  20. Daniel, what about a set of Racepace front pipes? Twin 3 inch into a 4 inch merge, tuned length and a decent price too. The welds are just sex!!!!
  21. It's a Ross balancer and the "tooth wheel" is a trigger wheel so the timing isn't taken from the CAS anymore. Oh you never know what's gonna happen with cams .
  22. Bobby, the box is a OS 1-3 gearset with the big dick input shaft. It was behind the engine before. It got pulled down and put back together since. Nice box but really needs a stroker to work.... Orrrr have smaller turbos! I can't see myself revving any harder than 8000 RPM. I found myself with the -5's changing at 6500 and just ride the torque. See where the power drops off but 8000 RPM will be the shift point with the hard cut set at 8600-8800 JUST so I don't hit it.
  23. Turbo of the devil!
