Nexus_SiX, I like your intro www page. Almost got me, then I started wondering why I was seeing an IE error while using Opera under Linux .

Hehe.. at.

I still get about a 50% ratio telling me the site is "broken"

As for the ECU thingo, my choice was twofold.

Cash. I could get the Power FC installed $500 cheaper than a wolf.

Longevity. We still plan to get a stagea down the track. This ecu will fit it So it is a long term investment.

Easy of install, uninstall was the reason over the afc/cam gear combo. Which, essentially is doing the same thing really.

$50 power runs here.The Wolf can be set up on a switch for 2 boost settings or a pot resistorfor variable boost.

$1500 for a Power FC fitted and tuned would have to be 2nd hand and have no hand controller or boost control.

he might be able to keep up with me then. What do you think paul?

If you don't have an auto go the light flywheel. Drop your 1/4 times by 0.4sec.

Management over the intercooler. Even the humble S-AFC II will work wonders and leave some coin for other mods.

All up I reckon for $2k you can :

Ogura flywheel / S-AFC II / HKS exhaust cam gear / KCA349 rear cradle kit / Maybe get a custom front underdrive pulley machined up and some exhaust wrap.

just on that note, one of the things which Gus has done AS WELL AS the pfc, is heat-wrap everything. I reckon this could explain quite a big chunk of the perceived advantage which his car has over bog-stock.

It might not be all PFC!

do exhaust cam gears really provide a benefit? I get the feeling you'd get better performance enhancement by spending that money on better tyres or bushes.

for the money, you could just about get a cut-n-shut plenum fabbed up too.

Zanda,

The exhaust cam gear works mint. I've played around with mine and extracted some extra zing in the form of a bit of extra torque.It only cost $200.

Nah you'll have to go to the drags one day then we can see what happens.

You see, I have one point left and appart from the obvious legality whatever spanking I hand out at the strip is only made worse on a regular (private) road surface.
