Can you turn it off and run stock boost (until its fixed)?

Lads, made it to the finals last night, so we finished around 7pm, at which point it was getting too late, and I was too tired to fark around anyway

made it to the finals, and lost. so we stayed there for the longest possible time out of all the teams, only to lose. magical. We have come second 3 out of the last 4 times. gayness.

good luck with the cricket today martin.

The house with Grinder-Man

F*ck them, they are assholes.

good luck with the cricket today martin.

Thanks dude, it helped :ermm:

Gold medal mother f*ckers:

OK it's not actually gold, but it does say '1st' if you squint hard enough:

I know none of you care, but I never win at sport so I'm going to tell the story anyway:

Games are 8 per side, 7 over innings, everyone bowls except the keeper.

Batsmen have to retire after they score 20. On our team we have 4 f*cking gun batsmen that generally tonk 6 after 4 after 6 and retire after an over or 2.

You play 3 pool games, and generally have to win all 3 to qualify for the quarter finals.

First game the other team made about 84. No idea how they made that, as they didn't seem to be batting that well. We think there might have been some 'creative' scoring going on there (batting team scores for themselves). 2 of our gun batsmen hadn't arrived yet, but the other 2 opened and knocked off about 50 runs in 2.5 overs before retiring. The next guys manage to waste the remaining 4.5 overs and not mange to win, we lost by 1 run. I didn't even get to bat :P.

We thought that was it and expected to be going home by lunch time, but we had a bye next and watched the team that beat us play, and they got their arse kicked. This put us back in the hunt because if everyone in the pool won 2, it goes on for/against and since we only lost by 1 we would go through. We just had to win the next two games.

Second game I sat out, but we won easily.

Third game we batted first, all 4 of the top batsmen got out for sfa, and so did the rest. I batted last, and when I came in we were only on 30. The other guy got run a couple of balls later, so then I had to bat on my own from there (unlike normal cricket, last batter keeps going till he gets out). I managed to add about 12 runs, giving us about 45 to defend. Again, we thought we'd be going home for lunch. Then I opened the bowling and took a wicket for about 3 runs, and we kept going from there and actually managed to win by a couple of runs! Winrar, thanks to my awesome 12.

Of the 8 finalists we were seeded 8th (as all the others won 3 games) so we got to play 1st seed in the quarter final. Kicked their arse.

Semi final I sat out again, we won, but just barely.

Final we were playing a bunch of Injuns that batted like sachin tendulkar. We were on the ropes until one of our batsmen came in and hit 6,6,4,6 from 4 balls then retired, and from there it was easy.

Yay, first time Powerlink has ever won cricket @ corporate games. And apparently it means a subsidised trip to 'Melbs' in November for the Australian corporate games. F*ck yeah.

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
