thats about right, dont expect more with optimax or nething, that wont make much difference at all! get it dynods with the pod filter tho! maybe even take the exhaust off see how it goes :D hmm they didnt put u into 3rd gear ? strange, i think it wouldve made abit more power than that if they took it about 140 kph

Not bad! typical factory intake and exhaust though. That's whats producing the trail off in your torque curve. Fix that up and you'd find another 2o+kW. See here how a bit more torque can sweeten the deal up. Looks like hes running it in second too. Not a bad thing but the high the gear the lower the power figure can look, so don't be surprised if another dyno run in another gear gives different figures.

I hand made mine, but you can get good ones made by the shops. I'm just running a 2 1/2" mandrel bent mild steel system with a resonator and a high flow hot-dog style mufler. A system like that shouldn't cost you more than about $250ish. Then with a set of extractors you'd definetly smooth the torwue curve out. Bigger numbers will then come once you start tweaking the cam timing and fuel map. Don't think for a second the factory fuel map is perfect!

My old mechanic made one up for me, but then again he couldnt even fix my car so i dont know how good the design is really

My car used to misfire alot too - and you could aways smell petrol :(

The spark plug gaps where wrong and they were too loose some other stuff that needed adjusting also which i cant remember off the top of my head.

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
