Soulja,

I don't want to dissapoint you but if you've ever been to the motorplex then you won't see any stock HSV's pull 13's, they need some work done to do that, and seeing as the GTO's haven't done much better then I doubt they would be in a low 13.

See'ya:burnout:

Ahahaha the driver affects the time the car pulls; out of the factor they r set to 13sec 1/4 i must say that is pretty low but it is possable (corvette in the states run ls1 350hp and pull 13 easy)

If you're into speed and hp have a look at

http://www.supercars.net/index-top.html

I can't believe the shape of the 1937 Merc W25 and W125 !!! I mean the car is close to 70 years old and yet it still looks pretty modern !!!

As for me, I not really into the hp and top speed. No point in talking about something that's unrealistic and beyond my reach. It's like talking about Elle Mc Pherson as a girlfriend, it's beyond our price range and reach :P .. Although, it doesn't stop us from dreaming :P

The funny thing about HSV cars is 255kw and 300kw Commonwhores both put 250rwhp on my Dyno, some ones

doing the wrong thing.

Gonna have to win lotto cause life can't go on with out that

Merc SLR!

Err does this means that there's something wrong with the dyno :P heheheheh ???

A friend of mine brought his S15 down there (SST) and got about 240-250rwkw, and yet at another place he just managed to scaped past 200rwkw. Does dyno have ISO standard :P ??

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
