I'd be solidly up shit creek without my phone. All my work contacts, staff phone numbers, friends, family etc are in the phone. I couldn't even tell you the phone number of the pub off of the top of my head, I'd have to look it up. I have about three numbers memorised and they are all family. My last girl friend cracked the shits with me because I couldn't remember her phone number.

Anyone got a spare telstra compatible phone they could lend me?

I had 2 of them till some shitcarnt came in to the house one night and flogged them

Morning Mangs,

Sucks about your phone Martin. I'm useless without my phone. Glorious weather today lol glad I've got the car. I think I'm paranoid about the car at the moment but I keep hearing weird noises and the turbos sound a lot louder than normal. More pronounced whistle coming from them. Definitely need to get it booked in with Dan ASAP.

I swear to god the universe has it in for me right now. Only day off work this week and I'm going to work...

After work I get to move house (finally) and of course it's raining.

However, ribs and meeting tonight make me happy! See you mangs there!

Holla

German Club soon.

Morning Mangs,

Thanks Noel!

@Col: Big end for sure.

Do turbos whistle louder when they're on the way out?

Holla

Olla

/\ This man, he speaketh the truth.

We can play the sound game again. What sort of noise does it make? Can you describe it in letters and words that make no sense?

Sqeak, whistle, scrape, whine, etc?

Does it sound like one of Kenworth's finest at idle? If so, your trunk monkey fitted a HX35 with adjustable nozzle, while you were sleeping...in Seattle.

P.S. See what I did there :ph34r:

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
