I'll do the turbo swap tomorrow.

Oh the joys!...

Tempted to fly Yavus up here and rent a dyno! ;D

Good luck mate.

Call him and ask but I don't think he will unless it's $$$$$ on the table.

Drive it down, weekend with the "crew", tune and drive home ;)

I finally swapped out my turbos after contemplating for a year, yes it was a lot of fun but as long as you have a methodical approach it really ain't that bad (with the right tools, that kinchrome stubby ratchet set is a live saver)

Yeah it's been a while eh! :)

Gonna go stock cams so, the usual settings on those ;), was happier with stock for street.

Yep love the stubby kingchromes!

The old, "bigger ain't always better".

Love it :D

You think I would of learned the first time...

Yeah love the stock cams down low. Easy to pull over double factory power from them too.

Maybe a 250 poncam would be a happy medium. Not much more duration, but a decent whack of lift.... Or go the whole hog, relieve the head and run some high light, low duration cams.

Personally, I'd like to do a back to back with a 250ish with 11 mm plus cam vs my ones. All R&D :(.

I'm looking at getting a set custom made around there

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
