You do not go to illegal drag meets, and try and paint a picture that things are "good".

The typical people taht attend such things are the kinda dumb idiots you see on Highway Patrol... it'll never end well.

If you wanted to paint enthusiasts in a good light, you would come to a sanctioned and legal event.

maybe he should write a story about internet safety? At least it wouldnt be a waste of ink.

I can predict the title, "hoons are also internet pirates stealing all your personal information!"

I thought the age was better than this :)

F*** ya'll! Just because there's a controversial thread doesn't mean I have to offer up my opinion! So anyway...

I'm thinking this Ian fellow has gone about this totally the wrong way. But to be honest it sounds more like a troll than a genuine enquiry - journalists can be stupid, but who is stupid enough to throw a negative label over the people you want to speak to like that? Or perhaps he's actually doing a story on SAU and wanted to find out our reactions to such a question.

In the event that it is genuine...I'm sorry that you expected to find hoons here...we have a couple who aren't too bright (every car club does) but most of us are car enthusiasts. Future tip: don't call the person you want to speak to, a hoon. You might as well have called them a no good f***ing idiot. If I were a hoon I sure wouldn't want to talk to you. And I don't want to talk to you...so does that make me a hoon? Errr :)

I equate this to doing a report on serial killing and asking to spend a weekend with a serial killer, asking him to show you a thing or two by killing some people and then (assuming you survived the weekend) writing an article whinging about how much murder there is nowadays (read: you really are stupid).

If you want a real article that will get read then go against the pop-media grain and write something about differentiation of car enthusiasts from car hoons. Underground infiltration has been done to death.

Yeah. And lets not forget about the extra taxes Journalists have placed on lands that are an abutment of Church grounds....so yeaaah.....lets do it.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
