I need to spend less time on SAU and more time tuning my drifter aye :)

Been flat out with work. As u all know customers come first before my own cars. Well unless theres a race meet on.

Use excuse that tuning the drifter is good advertising... Good advertising = More customers

Have to spend money to make money :)

Just tune it farken! :thumbsup:

This. Then stock up on a bolt on kit consisting of:

Kando

Tial 44

NZ manifold

Dump

Intake

Cooler pipe

Then customers can drop off their car and you can install the kit PLUS tune it. Start emailing Suppliers of those parts (and a boily) and organise a 10 batch buy at discounted rates, pass on some of the discount to your customers with KICK ASS labour charge and your off n racing!

does anyone wanna buy a TD06 3" turbo front cover? lol

For potential buyers it is actually over $100 cheaper to buy the turbo in parts (cover/core/turbine housing) than it is to buy it complete.

I think there was a dude a few pages back showing his mates one with a 2.4" neck, I rekon he would want your 3".

You might save $100 but you then need to assemble and balance the turbo. So I would get a price on balancing it prior to buying it in peices.

Does that include oil/water lines?

what $100 for a balance..................the cores/wheels are already balanced

i think the surge cover will definitely fix my issue (at least i hope it will lol) :)

only time will tell.

They are right in saying keep it for now man, Lith did say the VCT could be your issue.

Remember changing the cam timing alters the motors effective VE, just like opening the throttle does. (makes the motor more efficient)

That being said different VE = different area of the graph at given RPM/boost.

CFM = L x RPM x VE x Pr

5660

So watch this..

2.5 x 4000 x 90 x 2.5 / 5660 = 397.5 CFM

Now look here (Ive picked 97% as a random number as an example):

2.5 x 4000 x 97 x 2.5 / 5660 = 428.45 CFM

= Higher CFM, meaning further to the right of the comp map. If that doesnt make sense, I did you a graph. Remember that the outermost limit of the map on the LEFT side is surge and the RIGHT side is heat (excessive heat).

Remember also, these are rough calculations.. The VE could be lower or the comp map could be a little mis represented.. Either way, a rough calculation shows the motor is pretty damn close to the surge line at 4000 rpm.

Now plot it yourself at 3700 RPM where you probably are hitting 20psi and watch it come even closer if not cross the line.

Balancing in the east must be cheap as chips then.

sorry mate the point here is the Kando chra's comes built and balanced. you then just buy the housings and lines.

i hope that clears it up for you

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
