hey bud, nope not as yet but thats not were there hitting. Front wheels are scrapping badly on the plastic shrouding so might have to take it all out. Car is not overly low either as you wouldve seen last weekend, can still fit my hand between the tyre/gaurd etc.

Yeh mate, that inner guard needs to come out and be chucked....lol Lip/roll the guards and drop her a little and bobs your uncle! But going on your previous 32, you know what your doing anyways!! :)

Yeh Boostworx are really good on prices, they charge what people should charge, none of this "yeh mate thats gonna be $1,374,724.00 for that tune" "oh and i boosted it to 2,583psi, But geez look at your power figures"!!

My last tune was through Steve at manta racing and it cost $350. He takes the car to wilall racing where Peter Hall did the tune and my 32GTR put out 292rwkws at only 1.1bar of boost. Martin tuned the car at Tilbrooks before that and the car was doing 299rwkws. Peter however said it was to close to detonation. (same boost)

This is with no cams, standard injectors and no boost controller.

I run 34GTR N1 turbos and they are better than the stock turbos by far. Spool up quicker and more power.(259rwkws)

from stock turbos and nothing else changed.

I didnt think that you could run that much boost on N1 turbos (40psi) . I hit full boost by 4,000rpm .

? where in your rev range would you be able to spool up 40psi ?

haha..it was just an example mate, as in the turbo's can take whateva boost levels you can throw at them. I dont no where in the rev range 40psi would come on but I no people running high 30psi on built engines and they seem to like it.

    • Yes to both! Yes to standard ECU and tune, but exhaust is aftermarket. Unsure on brand. Actually have it sitting in at my desk haha! I have to set it up on my laptop but this is a great next step, will do. So I generally try to shift before 4.5K RPM most times. I largely don't do a lot of high-rev driving, but I will take it up to red 1-2x a week max, as I know the occasional "Italian tune-up" is good for these cars.  Oh wow, is this way better than what I'm getting. Does this mean there's a good chance I have an issue?   Thanks for all the info so far guys.
    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
