here is another good one, but goes to 65 pages though

Titled Spanish tuner

some mods in the thread

those are "sin grooves" "that will make the mixture travel faster to the centre of the chamber, thus improving efficiency"

lol there's an almost identical thread to this which has been sent to the wasteland, pretty sure the 'bag of sand in the intake' one was someone taking the piss, well thats what the original thread seems to say anyway.

BTW marc, the old GQ here has Exhaust Gas Recirculation from the headers back into the intake apparently for fuel economy or some other BS

plenty of cars have that. the magnas do, the pulsar does. but direct exhaust injection or whatever it was wasn't just a small pipe that allows a very small amount of gas through which is controlled by a valve. this was having the header pipes run over the top of the engine and into the throttlebody. there was NO actual exhaust outlet

here is the actual drawing the guy posted (with added fail comment)

LOL?

EGR- exhaust gas recirculation is to reduce oxides of nitrogen in emissions it is on a heap of cars and it only works when the car is at cruise throttle openings with the engine at operating temp. The amount of exhaust is only around 5% of total mixture though nothing like the DEI system schmatics previously posted.....

:P

What the hell is wrong with some ppl haha, it would have been easier to have spent another 15mins looking for the cap and putting it on, wouldnt have taken that long to find it surely.

Apparently some apprentice who used to work where I work ( ages ago ) couldnt get a wheel of and decided to cut the spokes with a angle grinder to get it of, only then to realise after it was of that he F**ked up haha.

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
