they are 17x 8 +17 fronts and 17x 9.5 +24 rear :dry:

Are they Brentons old meshies? Specs sound similar. Look like they sit pretty mint, full body shots needed (in daylight) though :kiss:

i just went down the street to get drinks for tomorrow, and had a guy come up and introduce himself to me.

it was none other then Mr Senwill himself, he liked my car!(and i liked his, brand new twin turbo range rover, he also has a brand new single turbo petrol one.. :P )

had a chat with him about a bit of stuff, then he gave me a Drift Central 3 dvd! put a smile on my face to meet someone like that in a little town like this, AND he was the nicest dude you will ever meet!

stoked!

Well a massive thanks to Ryan, Aussie Dyno and Turbosmart for seeing my car pull 198.1 rwkw today :( apparently im a bashed cat away from 220. ill post up my dyno sheet once i get my camera working. Highly recommend Aussie Dyno, made very very sure i was running 100% safe while still squeezing power out of it!

oh yeah, the hoodies wont be at vili's tonight, due top lack of interest combined with my family down from interstate. next pick up will be my cruise on monday

hey guys, after an opinion!

under boost, my 25 is making a high pitched squeel - from area around the turbo; i'm thinking it may be exhaust/manifold leakage.

I havent really investigated by removing bits and pieces under the bonnet yet, - i might take the heat shield off the std turbo tomorrow and have a geeze for any signs of soot and black crap.

Anyone had this issue before?

yes mate i had this exact same problem about a month ago, gasket between turbo and manifold mate...

ahh, so it very well may be the culprit! I asked my usual mechanic, and he guessed that a gasket would probably be the cause.

so basically, you got to remove exhaust front pipe and dump, remove turbo, replace gasket + new studs yeah?

doesnt sound like much, but it'd be a pretty legnthy job hey Ryan?

    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.   
    • First thought is to use a ram mount (to hold the ipad) + windscreen suction mount. The arms on the ram mount can be as long as you like, should be able to position the ipad pretty well with that setup.
