Good that you found the problem! How did you preload the rear springs Iain? My understanding is that you can only preload if the damper is topped out (at full extension). In our case all you'd be doing is increasing your ride height. Preloading springs is more of a motorbike thing due to the fact that at rest, with no rider (on a sports bike at least) the suspension is basically at the top of it's stroke (topped out), whereas in a car the suspension sits down an inch or more (at least) when at rest.

There must be a hell of a lot of excess gas from the wastegate! Is it worth (or can you even fit) a larger dump/ front pipe set up to reduce the back pressure? Does integration angle of the Wastegate pipe into the exhaust cause the boost spiking? Have you seen BOBBYr34's wastegate venturi set up? That wouldn't take long to fabricate... Not telling you how to row your own boat by any means mate; just curious. Cheers, Dale

Poke it in the dump pipe? Same as a normal wastegate; pressure signal from pressurized inlet tract overcomes spring pressure holding wastegate closed. Open wastegate releases excess exhaust gas (in this case straight to atmosphere, rather than into the exhaust) reducing the volume of gas available to spin exhaust turbine; thus reducing inlet tract pressure and closing wastegate. The "screamer" name is due to the fact that the unmuffled wastegate is extremely loud; basically like an open exhaust, while the wastegate is open.

None of mine are personal recommendations; just throwing around some budget options that weren't too hard to access. The F1 was $60ish per night, so I wouldn't expect the Hilton. More ideas welcome.

Thanks mate; ended up hooking him up through one of my Whiteline Group Buys. Cheers, Dale.

Mammaries?

Caravan Park in Slacktown? http://www.takeabrea...ccomodation.htm It's right near the correctional centre, so at least you'll know where to start looking when your car/wallet/son goes missing... Never even bothered looking for accomodation in this part of the world before now.

Ouch! Don't know Ian; but I don't like hearing about fellow bike riders being injured; feel better mate. Cheers, Dale.

Whenever you like mate; I'm in no hurry. Hopefully whoever does your paint works faster than my guy...

Ecu harness, Pink wire, blue trace; cut, insert momentary switch, have access to full throttle opening whenever you like. Enjoy better low speed throttle response and no delay after brake application. Every now & then, close circuit and tap brake to avoid ECU going into "Limp Mode" Anyone else care to fill in any holes in my explanation?

Did someone say a slice of 0.9mm Stainless and some double sided tape? Interested in offloading your grille?

Mind started ticking away; had to go for a drive... That's a surprisingly useful little mod! Wired up a switch to reset if need be. Is it just a case of close circuit, tap brakes, fault gone? Good work for doing the hard yards guys; riding your coat tails is a great thing.

Lol, yeah, I might've checked everything a few (hundred) times before cutting; just to make sure. Car starts, and no fault lights. Going to wait 'till later for a test.

Rubbish. BC's are great. Search BC coilover and see what you get.

Finally did the "wire" mod today. I shouldn't work on cars after night shift; everything seems to take twice as long...

Yeh, think I might, then on to work around 9:30pm.

Fark! Can it take any more black? Might need you to give me a tutorial as well...

My Blanking plates turned up today and are now fitted; Bars are finally finished!

Awesome! My car is finally looking the way I've always wanted; just in time for this!
