Wow hasnt this got some bad press now?! It went from wow nice results mate to meh thats not that crash hot HAHA! I dont understand any of the dyno jargon you blokes are carrying on about lol! Its just a sheet showing how much power it made FFS! To me it doesnt give a true representaion of how my car drives in the REAL world my car is far from dead under 4000rpm even if thats what a line on a piece of paper says to you in fact the car takes off like a dog shot in the ass 3800rpm in 2nd gear all the way to redline 3rd gear is on instantly if you stay hard on it in 2nd gear off boost its torquey as hell and feels as pokey as any big Falcodore 6 cylinder which is very impressive for a 2.5L imo... Yeah probably doesnt come on as early as alot of turbos or the GT3071 that it replaced for that matter. I dunno if my eyes deceive me or im not reading the dynosheet right but is 25psi @ 4000rpm on a factory manifold with an internal gate laggy? My car is far from an exotic or by a big $$$ setup its a basic bolt on package on E85 nothing special really i woulda thought Now dont get me wrong this is not me getting defensive to the constructive critisism from you guys as im stoked with how well my car goes and how well it drives on and off boost is a credit to the boys at Unigroup engineering and 450hp isnt too shabby at all i reckon I just feel some guys get caught up in the dynosheet too much as opposed to how it feels to drive on the road which is where it really counts......... Thats my 2c anyways haha Jez is gunna be taking my car for a run this weekend so ill put the hard word on him to do a little write up and give you guys his opinion on how my car drives lol im sure as shit hes driven as many different turbo combinations on a 25 as anyone in here

Seriously? A bigger non ball bearing turbo being less laggier?

Haha look forward to seeing the 76 results mate how far off is your build?

Thanks cal really happy with the GTX mate

">

Very happy thanks Dale i dont thimk think dynosheet has a torque curve but been thinking bout taking my car up to Jezzy boys dyno just for a direct comparison on 2 dynos and also to get a torque read out

Thanks Lithium yeah exceeded my expectations mate and the power comes on sooo strong its an absolute hoot to drive

Tell the truth Jez you are looking forward more to the drive than the pipework haha

Done well Justo lol Hope this gives ya some motivation to push on with that build and get your ride back on the road

Just scanned my dynosheet guys so you can get a better look sorry bout the dodgey pic lol soon as photobucket wakes up ill post it up.

Hmmmmm this talk of the fuzz being around is kinda scaring me! Ive been genuinely looking forward to this for a while now i even got my old man gee'd up to come to this its actually gunna be our first ride with our 2 cars together as well as our 1st SAU cruise participation hope they give us a break

I did live to tell the results and lucky there werent any bro's to watch this hahaha Whether i become another skyline statistic remains to be seen yet lol I dont plan to be a temporary citizen at this point in time

There is the end result gentleman im STOKED with the results out of the baby of the T3 family just came back from a quick fang and HOLY SHIT it now just frys 2nd and when you hit 3rd it just DOES NOT lay off i actually came back in with the adrenelin shakes haha

">

Thats a pretty good wrap im happy my work is loved Steve o haha my car is just my weekend fang mate i live near the hills so i go playing up there. I wanna start doing some motorsport driving as such soon though

Spewing mate! The old boy and i-self are still gunna be there if ya keen still Luke?

Hahaha thanks Steve O gave tyson a look at my pipework today and he said that 1 of the boys off the forum had mentioned my work to him. That wouldnt of been you would it mate? Hope ya get to check it out AND that it lives up to expectations now LOL

No updates as of yet mate dropped my car off this morning and the manifold gasket turned up there as well so hopefully the boys have it sorted tonight

Awesome work thanks guys greatly appreciated

Welcome to SAU Gui

Thanks for ya input Lance where exactly is that actuator located? im a bit lost here........... Does the control unit diagnosis test that too??

Ok well thats gay just done the check in the sun and 20 came up which means everything is ok so WTF does my air go warm randomly from time to time

Oh dear i done the test at night after reading bout it lol would that really affect the test result??

Wow!!!!! Very spoilt man indeed your GTR would make me very happy in the pants at the front possibly very brown and smelly in the back when that baby hits full noise! Extremely drool worthy!!!!!! Dont know if i added enough exclamation marks so heres few more !!!!!!!!!!

I think the focus also needs to be drawn to ridiculously loud Harleys that you can hear 5km up the road or any road bike for that matter, 4WD's that look like they are about to roll over when they go around a corner because they are so highly modified to be offroad that they shouldn't be on the road and i dont know if u guys on the westside get the tools who have utes with 5 post truck bullbars and 50 6m long aerials hanging off them the bars are so heavy that it makes the car handle like a dog and assures that even the lowest speed accident with pedestrians will see them in a body bag.
