yeh obviously u should be lookin at a proper ecu, ie powerfc, wolf3d or microtech.
Then u wont have the shit problems u have now, aswell as heaps more power from being able to adjust igniition.
they came on the car matey. they are definately illegal in sa, ive had to remove them twice cos of regency. sorry cant tell u where to get them from besides the places suggested.
did u get my pm about ur car
with ur 18s, the sidewall is thinner so not good for traction. soft sidewall will help, but not good for cornering. It u want better traction, tyres, suspension has to be softer, similar to stock, and some decent camber kit at -0.5 deg
ur afm is maxing out. there is so much ariflow that the stock ecu pulls timing out, hence why u feel the car is making good power sometimes and shit power other. This happened to my car and whatsisnames car when we installed a unichip and wer makin around 210-220rwkws.
Solution is to buy a standalone ecu like powerfc as the standard ecu seems to be pulling alot of timing.
I think what the problem is is that with all this extra policing and defecting, the REAL unroadworthy cars are still out ther whilst majority of modified cars are being targeted. For instance I walker through the back of mawson lakes carpark last week. i could easily see at least 30 cars (in a small carpark of maybe 150cars) and all of them were unroadworth. Smashed front head lights, crashed cars with no repairs done, cars with heaps and heaps of rust. And im sure they all would smoke like a biatch aswell.
I cant believe that these cars dont get defected and how a car with a BOV poses a much more dangerous "threat" on the road...
Ahhh
Well done matt. In regards to the new exhaust being alot louder, do u have an apexi exhaust valve. Would be a good investment and can be bought cheap form greenline.
