Well. I'm even tempting saying stuff it n go straight to Trent.

Give them the benefit of the doubt, its not going to cost you anything.

TBH it caught me out 1st time i did a LINK, With the LINK unless you do a store after each tuning stage it will loose all your "current" changes and revert to the "original" map that it was started on (not the original base but the same map the car was key started on). They could have accidently lost the last lot of map changes.

I rang lunch time.asked for a a/f chart by the end of the day. Didn't happen.

Plus this is no way near their first link.

The question is... How disapointed will you be if you pay Trent to fix the said issues and you find it is hardly any better?

While I dont doubt his knowledge and opinion, I also know you should never expect too much. I have a feeling the amendments will make for an all round better car but would only hope that a good improvement in response is found, rather than expecting one..

As stated AVO should be willing to tacklw this for you free of charge.

Ye but to be fair - he's been told its got nothing to do with the actuator.

Whilst it really only IS going to be the actuator, 2nd opinion also backed that up what a lot of us suspected anyway. We've all seen enough results to have a "reasonable" idea of where things should sit.

There are also further reccommendations in other area's as well.

I mean go back and see, but i cannot see them being too forthcoming on it all and more time spent might not achieve anything.

I also highly doubt they will do it for free, no one works for free, hell even when they have stuffed up a lot of places still charge.

I'm gonna ask to refund my money on the tune. They seem too busy for me.

let us know how you go with fitment on a 6boost manifold. i have the same housing but to suit a gt30 on a hks cast manifold and fitment is mission impossible in every regard. for example the edge of the t4 flange sits so close to the comp housing that i've had to leave one of the comp housing bolts out as it fouls. have fun with the lines....:thumbsup:

ill trial fit the turbo an make some lines up on the weekend and let you know how i go,

with the rear housing only bolted on the manifold it sits atleast 10mm lower then the HKS one i had

yeah its a RB30, 26 head forgot to mention that - thought we were in the RB30 section :P

im will be talking to a few tuners im in sydney so it will be out of JEM/Powertune/unigroup still probly 4-5months off from any dyno time

quick question guys would a 3 1/2 inch dump to 4inch cat back be over kill for my set up? OR should i just stick to 3 1/2 inch the whole way?

for your thing 4inch is the go. yes turbine outlet is small but you want a nice taper out from the outlet to 4inch pipe. even more important if you are planning to plumb in the wastegate outlet.

almost 1000rpm of spool difference, although completely different dyno setups so not really that compareable. Still it really does look like his is set up perfectly.

He is also using external gate and manifold, what are you using?

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation.
