You'll also note that the top end is only running 10psi. The boost drop off in the top end is common with standard turbochargers when pushed hard and can be overcome with a better boost controller.

Seems like an EBC is the way to go.

are we straying off topic?

maybe?

nah...not us

I saw all the extra replies thinking "Awesome. Topic has really kicked off" But nope, I was wrong lol

BTW, Happy Bday Dr DiRT!!! :(

Cheers guys.

whats the difference again?

w e l l o n e s g o t a p r e t t y d a r k g r e e n b a r u n d e r t h e i r a v a t a r w i t h t h e w o r d "a d m i n i s t r a t o r" w r i t t e n i n i t a n d t h e o t h e r o n e i s l i g h t g r e e n a n d h a s t h e w o r d "m o d e r a t o r" w r i t t e n i n i t.

but both mean the same as they are a clear sign of homosexual tendencies. :(

what's funny is how many people would actually believe him and fork out cash only for him to fit it and wind some timing into it and get a better result...He's happy he's got his cash and the customer is happy but none the wiser of his easy earnings.

yup ping is power.... obviously.

I'm sorry. Forgiveness PLEASE!!! :(

It's not your fault, mate. At the risk of sounding on-topic, your car is making the right horsepower for the mods you've got but there are two things you need to do to make it a much, much better/faster/more pleasant car to drive.

Step 1/ Sack your bleed boost controller and go buy a Turbosmart Eboost II

Step 2/ Sack your tuner. They may be competent but they're completely full of shit.

A quality EBC will bring the boost on early and keep it there.

A quality tuner will make sure your engine lives once you do the above.

Good luck, mate.

Thanks 2rismo!!

I'll look into an eBoost II once the funds permit me to. As for the tuner, I'll have a chat with him about getting those AFRs and see where I go from there.

Cheers again mate.

Now, back to the off-topic war...

ADMINISTRATORS vs MODERATORS: Battle of the homosexuals In Green :(

Although my power curve is more agressive then this. Maybe my turbo has been high flowed?

Mate all you have to do is press a button and change the scale to look a bit more agressive, look at the RPM and power to compare.

yes Ping is Power according to some.

    • Ha ha, yeah, I've had one following me around in my parts boxes since about 2007 I believe. Just a little iddy bit hole drilled in the one I have to let it vent out once pressure was removed from the engine side. Still no idea what I'd put it on, ha ha.
    • Just read this... Just a little bit of a wild one! Do you think the driver was testing out a new feature/device for how to lose the cops in a high speed chase?   I also suspect, if the box has a road sweeper that does magnetic metal pick up, he does a LOT of work in the machining industry. Which is what most of that looked like, machining chips from a mill or lathe. And I bet they're RAZOR sharp! And from an environmental perspective they really do need to actually collect all of those little pieces too. I wonder how many people still cop flat tires over the coming months on that road?   As for insurance company, yeah, it'd be interesting to hear what they say to the owner. But realistically, he's right, that "It's his fault". In the way that, it was his truck that spilled it, so they need to clean it up. However, neither he, nor his insurance company may bear the end cost if they do an investigation and find out it was caused by someone elses negligence (And they know who)...
    • Yeah, no matter what bad things people can say about Julian from Autospeed, he at least was capable of thinking and his inclusion of a check/relief valve in the plumbing for the Audi boost controller, that I made a copy of and used for years**, completely eradicated that problem. **It's still lying on my workbench where I put it about, um, 18 years ago and have never found a home for it!
    • I didn't actually know this! I've seen photos of the H1, mainly outside shots, and they just look "different". I guess there'd be a few little changes like nicer rims, and probably the fact they have nicer looking paint with some depth and shine, which will make any vehicles body look different to the very flat colours of the defence force.   I've watched the guys on GHPC convert their Humvee to LS1, and they've done some really nice front shock upgrade. I'm waiting for the next video on it with the rear end done. I can't remember if they've already done it, or I dreamed it, but I believe they're also supercharging theres. They will be in the future doing proper long travel suspension too.   If you ditch out your big V8, as rubbish as it must be, send it to my place. I'll let the unreliable V8 motor and box be here. I just like V8s... So I'll find something to do with it... Even if that something is just taking up valuable space in the yard. I might have something Skyline I can send back in payment... Or even Ford Barra motors  (From memory you're in Canada yeah?) So you can then play with the legendary Aussie 4L version of an RB...  Except they don't have that distinctive random miss at idle like the RB25 does.
    • Or you mean the age old problem of early 2000's manual boost tees, where they never let the pressure out of the line between the boost tee, and the waste gate, so after your first trip on boost, the damn wastegate liked to stay open and be laggy on gear change?
