  1. Nice. But he needs cams and a bigger turbo because of this: ^^^^ Much better daily
  2. Are you talking about the oil gauge in the photo?
  3. The haltech would be doing that, the problem is that you can't turn the boost down when you see over boost on a cold day. That's why I suggested a bleed valve on your top wastegate port. Speak to your tuner to see if its an option as its easy to install.
  4. Short answer to this is yes, it would still spike, but then all you would do is decrease your duty cycle. Don't how the haltec does it but I assume it just controls a mac valve, so your tuner just needs to start the bleed off later if its just spiking as boost is ramping. It just makes it a bit less aggressive. If you are using an external wastegate with both ports being used, an old school way is just crimp the vac line going to the top port with a hose clamp just enough to restrict flow, or put a bleed valve in that line and bleed it off. In both cases the top chamber will have less pressure and reduce your boost, and can be adjusted when ever you want without really messing up your ecu if its just setting fixed parameters to a mac valve's duty cycle and gain.
  5. Quote: “We were surprised to see substantial declines in marijuana use and abuse,” he said. “We don’t know how legalization is affecting young marijuana users, but it could be that many kids with behavioral problems are more likely to get treatment earlier in childhood, making them less likely to turn to pot during adolescence. Pretty much sums it up.
  6. If you are taking that article as science then good luck to you. All it says is that the reduction in pot usage is probably due to the medical intervention of potentional users at a young age to correct a behavioral abnormality, therefore reducing the incident of criminal behavior and exposure, hence protecting the child from future pot usage. Can't see where the correlation is as your are suggesting. The headline is just attention grabbing click bait but the contents of the article centres around something totally different. Whatever [emoji53]
  7. LS's are all american engines and been in holdens since the VTs. Aussies have always loved the SB chevs since I think 1969 with the HT monaros.
  8. I think the 7670 on a 2J did OK but only got spun to 6500 and it was all happening by 3500.
  9. Sounds right, but I question the stock BOV's efficiency at evacuating the pressurised system TOO efficiently. I may be wrong but the lack of evacuation efficiency that a system has with no BOVs might actually be a blessing by more pressure remaining the intake system therefore helping part throttle response and turbo spool recovery.
  10. Yeah I noticed the plungers were pretty close to the edge of the outlet. But I never had a problem holding boost so I assume they are OK. I will lube them if I decide to go back.
  11. Only 19ish with a bleed valve, ebc not right yet. But I feel the difference that for sure.
  12. Love it man. Great piece of work. You are RB love struck now, nothing will ever be the same.
  13. Gee another chump driven hero car that we need to put up with drag racing every skyline on the freeways. Oh well we have another ego to crush I suppose.
  14. Sorry am I missing something here or are u trying to read pressure off your temp gauge. I am a bit confused.
  15. Fluttering under load is a bad bad thing, compressor surge. Don't drive it, get it tuned or you will destroy ur turbo amongst other things.
  16. Just blocked off my BOVs for shits and giggles. Surprisingly transient response at part throttle has improved.
  17. Stupid question maybe, but can't you just adjust you base fuel pressure off your fuel regulator.
  18. Good luck today guys and girls. Hope you all have a great day. Post some pics during the day for us less fortunate please. Enjoy and stay safe. [emoji4] [emoji4]
  19. What's wrong 280kws with 100kws at 4500 rpm? Bit harsh. [emoji2]
