Not a true spotted but...you could have spotted me scraping the ice off my rental car this morning! I am in Baltimore and there was a snow/ice downpour yesterday...not the slushy stuff Canberra gets once a year but hard crunchy ice..I was so excited until I went out in it then it wasn't so much fun. Anyway my hire car is an Infiniti M35, 2007 model sedan. Push button start, full on luxury inside and gets up and goes very quick, although not throw yourself in the back of the seat type quick.....lol. Don't know if V6 or V8 but there is two sets of twin exhausts, but now I have to drive to Washington to catch my plane to my final destination for a few months...hoo roo!

I used to live about 20-30 minutes from Baltimore and yeah, shoveling snow off a drive way sucks ass.

Spotted Star33 down the parkway around 8pm last night. I took off from the lights and this car pulls up beside me. Was thinking the whole time "dont make eye contact, dont make eye contact" so i looked expecting to see some douche trying to 'smoke' me, turns it was some douche :huh:

    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.   
    • First thought is to use a ram mount (to hold the ipad) + windscreen suction mount. The arms on the ram mount can be as long as you like, should be able to position the ipad pretty well with that setup.
