Well, as some of you know I was fortunate enough to fly over to the USA for the 2008 SEMA show earlier this month!

After 11 nights in America Im glad to be back on Australian soil but the trip was awesome!! I'll have memories of Vegas, the SEMA show and so much more for many years to come!

I have attached as many photos as I can (I took over 600 pictures) to give you a taste of just how amazing SEMA and Las Vegas are.

Enjoy :P

Very cool. I've started saving to go next year with some friends. Any tips?

You cant get in to SEMA if you arent registered as part of the international automotive trade or media.

Stay at either Caesars Palace or the Belagio, they're the nicest hotels that we went through.

Take as much cash as you can but dont spend any of it on gambling... Vegas is an expensive city!

If youre not taking the missus - make sure that you visit "The Spearmint Rhino Club" - very expensive cover charge and drinks but well worth it :(

Already got that covered.

Accommodation is covered, one of the guys cousins lives close enough and is fine with us crashing at his place.

I'll keep this in mind... especially the "spearmint rhino club".... sounds intriguing!

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
