Some tool in a 4wd reversed into me on the weekend at the entrance to mallala. Stuffed my intercooler and new front bar. ALso pushed radiator back into engine and is now leaking coolant. This was my first time out at mallala and i didnt even make it throught the gate!. THe worst part about it though was my new front bar and front mount intercool was only put on on thursday costing me about 1400 all up for the purchase, respray and fitting. (it didnt last very long!!!!!!!). All the tool in the 4wd received was a dint in their rear bullbar!!!!! I dont know how i restrained from hitting this tool as i was pretty worked up (basically screaming my lungs out at this p-plate wanker).

It totally ruined my day at the drifts!

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
