nah i work for a promotional products company we do all of the promotional products for BMA / BHP and sponsored the day so they sent us up for a bit of pr was cool got to meet pete murray and tatiana as they stayed in the same hotel as us. (you would not let your dog sleep in the other hotel/motel)

the dude in the blue shirt next to tatiana is wearing one of the shirts i designed (tatiana has gone down hill since the olympics) her head is wedged in ass!! but pete murry is so layed back and like your average guy

and hell yes they are some mad turbos!!!

I think that motor was one of the 3000kw versions

the pic of the pipe is actualy the extention lead running the power to the dragline

i've been there, i setup the WCDMA in the tower that's on the hill :)

the biggest turbo's i've seen were at a mine out that way.. but this one was more south east of emerald, can't remember the name, there were a few of them laying in there machinery repair shop and wholey f**k they were huge, almost as heavy as picking up an RB block :P

and accomodation out that way really does suck, and expensive too :( $120 a night to stay in some lice infested motel, when $100 in mackay gets you a 2 bedroom fully airconditioned hotel with cable :P

hey just realised something dont send it to unltd as thats my personal business!

send it to [email protected] <- this is my regular day job (that does CAT / Hastings / BMA)

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
