so amongst all the crap charlie you need to really identify your current mods, how much you want to spend and what power you want to make

as the power goes up, so does the spend and the rate at which things break so be reasonable, ie dont say your happy with 300rwkw and want to spend 3k

be realistic and you should be ok

a basic GTST with std turbo is good for 200rwkw

a mild GTST with hiflow is good for 250rwkw

a mildish GTST with internal large is good for 300rwkw

a heavy GTST with external large is good for 350rwkw

so pick your target, again, each power band, the cost goes up exponetially

Party pooper... :nyaanyaa:

ok so it sounds like all the dream boats on here r a bunch of cocks...... I would be happy with 250rwkw and I don't want to spend to much.

I have a,

HKS FconS ecu

Bosh 044 fuel pump

front mount cooler

S/S flowed turbo manifold

S/S dump pipe with wastgate pipe

3"dump to the cat and 3.5" after that

2850 Stall converter for the auto

Sard fuel reg

The ECU was tuned over in japan for 278.8PS with front mount and fuel pump thats it..

1. What is "S/S"?

Sounds like some laggy/cheap ebay rubbish to me. It will crack, and then you will cry.

Put the stock manifold back on.

2. Ditch the F-Con. No one can tune them. PowerFC of Nistune are the cheapest options.

As for turbo - same as everyone else. Please read the Dyno results thread.

There are plenty of turbo options

Probably from some stupid performance shop's shit like Gentech....then again, if it's anything like Gentech I don't think he can afford it....

http://www.gentechperformance.com/ford/packages.html

Have a look at their prices for each stage....BUT KEEP IN MIND each stage's price is ASSUMING you've already purchased the previous stages....rofl

LOL stage 1

3.5k, all they do is a flash tune and CHANGE OVER injectors.

WTF?

Thats no more than $1800 on a epically bad day...

Some people just take it in the ass when it comes to off-shelf stuff like that.

And no.

Not anyone can tune a F-Con. You need the HKS software that only approved tuners are supplied with etc.

There is like one tuner per state in Australia, effectively limiting you unnecessarily.

i think S/S means stainless steel Ash..

But no promises... :rolleyes:

Yeah, kinda missed the point :D

I mean is it an ebay special??? (I suspect it is).

Also to make the most of your stage 2 turbo you will need at least the following

Stage 1 > ecu and fuel system upgrade, driveline brake and suspension packages

Stage 2 > filters, exhaust and intercooler

Stage 3 > weight reduction package,tyres and NOS

Your NOS bottle will refill itself automatically as you perform drifts, tricks or hold you racing line

You will also need drift wing, widebody kit, pearlescent paint with matching tint, neons and at least 20inch (preferably 22inch) wheels for reputation points and street cred. And dont forget carbon fibre, lots of it, and not the stick on stuff, thats for posers

Dont listen to these guys telling you your inlet manifold will blow or floorpans will fall out, that only happens in the movies. :P .

BUHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH!!!!

look mate if your after 250rwkw+ speak to stao at hypergear i have a target of 300rwkw and im looking at the ATR43 G3 profile (best bang for buck) with supporting mods of injectors (750cc) but that high is not needed, FMIC, Z32AFM, Microtech LT12-s and possibly a cam gear on exhaust side, and a turbotech boost controller. stao reckons this should get me 300rwkw easy.

like i said speak to stao he will have the answers

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
