paul's serious about the shiny bit btw - jimih got yellowed coz his chrome cup could 'blind him' - even though he can't even see it

for the best anyway :D

pillar guages are fine as long as they're against the pillar and not hindering vision / line of sight etc

The second guage could be argued to be a hazard during an accident - the distance to headspace argument. I don't think the cops would ping you, but the pits may do. Anyone had experience on this?

btw - heaps of people have the single pod (me included) and have had no problems.

they will yellow ya for anything...

granted it was a ford but i got sticked in my old car for dirty front headlights and a seatbelt that didnt retract properly...

i didnt do anything to the car and drove straight to mandurah desiel (local sticka remover) and got it over the pits straight away.

lots of the time it will because they didnt get a read out when you were speeding or something like that....

just watch your lead foot boys...

You break road rules, car looks bit sporty, and give a little cheak when cop pulls you up.....you get a sticker for your troubles. When I say give a little cheak, you might just look at him/her the wrong way.

You'll never stop cops from handing them out, It's bullshit. And regardless of whether or not your mods are legal. Passing the pits still hits you in the hip pocket.

It's not that bad. If you get done and it's not warranted then you don't have to pay and the officer can get a minor reprimand if you follow it up.

Not that my car would pass - but if you get one and you have to spend the $$ to get it over the pits then the cop was just doing his job right? It's a risk we all take and shouldn't unless we're prepared for the consequences.

Sorry - just heard the "poor me - it's not fair" argument too many times..

i agreee with Cam.. also on that note i think most of you are blowing everything out of proportion.. How often do u honestly get a yellow? I hear lots of boohoo stories from various differant people but not same person every 2nd week crying about it.

I copped several yellows on my ute, but they were always due to me being somewhere where i should(street drags) or doing something stupid(speeding/burnout).. So end of day it was my own fault.

    • 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.
