Hi Everyone, im after getting one of these but all i can find is places in the US, but they charge crazy shipping which make it not worth it. Is there anywhere in oz where i can get from or if i need to go US does anyone reccommend a place to get from.

Thanks

Spenny

FYI my popcharger, z tube and spacer arrived yesterday and I fitted it last night - shipping took 4 days :P

car sounded good before, sounds farking awesome now! definantly recommend this mod for anyone looking to make their car sound better.

..*starts looking at high flow cats*.. :bunny:

hmm i got mine off ebay for about 250AUS... that was about 2008 though... sooo heres a link of one you could get...

its $65.00 US shipping... its like 1aus = 0.91US sooo its a good buy! :bunny:

works well! didnt notice much of a power difference however the sound is awesome!!! a massive ROAR!!! xD

Most people do a reset when installing an intake mod, as it resets the learnt ratios.

It will take a few runs before your car relearns.

My understanding of the ECU is that it's an adaptive learning ECU that adjusts to your driving style. So it won't matter if you don't reset the ECU. Over time it will adjust.

I like to reset my ECU after installing new intake mods though. :)

Not really required. the MAF will measure intake airflow, unless a pop-charger changes the way the air flows over the MAF it won't make any difference.

The only thing the ECU stores is long term fuel trim. Meaning if the ECU sees a consistent difference between it's base fuel maps and what it sees at the AF ratio/ O2 sensor output, it will apply a trim to the map.

This shouldn't change by fitting a pop-charger.

To clear the long term fuel trim you will need a consult, or follow the non-consult procedure (I don't have this with me at the moment), which involves a pattern of accelerator pedal cycles and ign on/off cycles.

The days of disconnecting the battery to clear ECU went out when the 1990s...

    • 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.
