I was talking to my commodore loving boss the other day and he was telling me how much turbo cars benefit from racing chips, and / or computer.... being a bit stupid when it comes to stuff like that i was wondering if this was true, and if so how much performance for how many dollars will one of these chips/ compters give me??

$1000 wont get you an aftermarket ecu. Cheapest ones start around $1300-$1400 plus fitting and tuning, so probabaly around the $2000 mark drive in and out. Basically its hard to say how much peak power you will pickup as it depends on what other mods you have done. But the std nissan ecu runs very rich and you will gain a huge amount of mid-range to top end power. To give you an idea I'm getting about 322hp @ 12psi currently with my setup (I put in a bigger fuel pump and it richened the fuel back up as the stock fuel pump was getting too lean for my liking) when I put in my wolf3d and get it tuned I hope to make around 360-370hp with 1 bar or less of boost. But the biggest thing will be the much improved midrange through advancing the timing and running the fuel a bit leaner. I'm also hoping for a bit better spoolup from my td06-20g turbo, I plan to fit an adjustable cam gear to the exhaust cam at the same time too.

    • Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!

If this is what you want please come to one of our track days. This is an official SAUNSW event and will be run under a Motorsport Australia permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU:NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave. Thanks guys and hope to see you there!
    • Good time for a carbon roof  
    • Not in any way aroused by any of those, except maybe the big AMGs. And that would break my never a Euro, ever, rule.
