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

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
