Had the car tuned at CV Performance on Saturday morning...

The car has been tuned to run on 10psi boost where it made 189.6rwkw!!!

(alot better than the 114rwkw effort at AUTOSALON)

Then wound the boost up to 13psi and hit 203.4rwkw!!!

I now need to get a custom dump pipe and a high flow cat - CAN ANYONE HELP???

Next step is to see what sort of time i can make at WSID

*Will post up pick of print out soon*

Basti,

Lol, the 114rwkw at AUTOSALON was coz i had massive big range fuel cut and i was miss firing bad...

But, mods include...

- 3" exhaust w/ 6" cannon 4" tip

- Front mount intercooler 300x600x76mm - JustJap

- Cold air intake

- Pod Filter

- SSQ BOV

- NGK race spark plugs - instead of having a pin for spark, they have a big flat area! gapped to 0.7mm

- GFB manual boost contoller

- Apexi SAFC forgot that one!!! whoops!!!

- Shell V-power Racing!

Thats all performance wise....

300x50076mm... daamn thats a big intercooler! :whistling:

From what I've seen the spark plugs with the big flat area are the copper type. The Iridium are usually the pin type. I could be wrong but those race plugs sound like the regular copper plugs? Anyway if you need to gap them down to 0.7mm to cure your misfire then expect a coil pack replacement in the near future :rolleyes:

Nice power from the mods though!

And in regards to replacing coil packs, i won't have a problem with miss firing as the spark plugs are more than cable of running the car with the standard turbo.

I will only need to replace coil packs say if i do a high flow and start pushing for close to 300rwkw or so...

If u run the right plugs at the right gap, and the right sort of fuel, say good buy to miss firing!

0.7 just seems a bit too much.. thats all!! no matter what plugs they are!!

0.75 seems alright..

Anyways if the cars happy, then thats all too it. .

Which safc do you have?

Please post a dyno graph.. Keen to see how the curve looks like!!

btw gd kw reading.. congrats!!

i was getting 183kw without any safc or tune on 10psi.. I had a nice curve, but i might invest in an safc soon.. Since i can get a hold of a power fc due to huge price..

Speaking of gapping sparkies,.....I bought a set of NGK Iridiums and wanted to gap it same as my old sparkies, but looking at the back of the packaging, it said "DO NOT REGAP THE SPARK PLUGS AS......"....so I left it at god know what gap (most likely 0.9 or 1) is that ok??

I'm not getting any misfire at that gap range.

James, if you have a look at the part number for the spark plugs, it tells you what the standard gap is. For example, NGK's BKR5EIX-11's have a 1.1mm gap, it's the last two numbers that tell you what the gap is.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
