I'm interested to see what C&V do with it. He tunes my car. Ive heard some bad feedback on him, but as far as i can tell, he's very good at what he does.

No messing around. No chit chat. In and out. And despite popular belief, he has plenty of experience on Skylines/imports.

Just make sure you let him know you dont want it tuned to within one inch of its life, coz he'll do it. lol

They do a lot of drag cars, and like to get every last drop out of them on the dyno. If you gave him free reign, i have no doubt you would find a nitrous bottle in your boot

That foe some people is a bad reference on its own, as a lot of these guys will tell you they get an endless supply of people wanting to talk shit with them all day.

[skylinecouple]

I am not one of their supporters, personal experience. In and out, exactly.

[Munkyb0y]

WELL!! What's the outcome!? This is like those episodes, where it gets to a good bit, and then they say 'to be continued'.

like the ending of the italian job (the original)

nnnnnnnnnnnnnn newwwwwwwwwwwwsssss update, ok back from c&v performance and im pulling a ripe 280kw's at 19psi....droppping to in high revs 16psi...due to weak actuator(i was told). any other fix to this????

now...they didnt find any leaks but i suspect...that the last time i pulled apart the intercooler piping and put it back together (after the last dyno) i am presuming it was fixed then.

now im looking to get a 19psi actuator which i have been advised will give me a bit more power throughout the top end of revs as its falling off.

ive got to say....INSTANT, INSANE, BOOST ALL THE WAY TO REDLINE .

my semi slicks are frying taking off from cruising in second gear.

only downside i see..is that im getting knock of 40 when giving it stick...?? is that safe???

i will post the dyno sheet tomorrow...thanks for everyones contribution and help.

i will tell you all how it goes once ive put this bigger actuator in...dissapointed in the hks actuator as its not holding that wastegate shut...

any advice or direction to a 19psi actuator would be great.

[W0rp3D]

is it an adkustable hks actuator, i have not had any trouble with mine holding boost.

[allthewaytotheskyline]

yeh its an adjustable...

[paulr33]

level of 40 knock is reasonable levels of detonation - check the tune or just make sure all is ok

see if backing out 1 or 2psi removes that level of knocking, if so it might need 1 or 2deg taken out on the map somehwere

keep an eye on it (covered in the PFC FAQ) at 60 the engine check light will flash
