A 35R should be making a LOT more than 290rwkw @ 20psi. You'd expect around 340rwkw.

Clearly you have issues going on, probably a combination.

I suggest you go back to whoever tuned it and get it on the dyno to diagnose the problems. Could be a number of issues.

Well maybe it's the fact my car was slipping on dyno and I've fitted new clutch on saturday and now it's getting all the power to the ground ? Shouldn't 555cc injectors support 350rwkw like everyone on forum states they can

They will support 330-350rwkw. But who knows whats going on.

You've fitted an aftermarket reg, it could be set wrong.

Fuel pump might be having issues, fuel filter even

As for the power you might have exhaust restrictions, timing could be wrong

Who knows mate. I think there is more to your problem and it's not coil packs at this stage.

Either way you must take it and get it looked at on a dyno, see what the fuel pressure, AFR's, boost etc is all doing.

Especially with your threads the past month, certainly issues

I may be barking up the wrong tree here, but does it pain you to talk/type in a friendly/non-threatening tone?

Yes, your posts are very informative, but you almost always talk down to everyone who has less knowledge than you, sorry just pointing it out.

Well no - it's still down on 50rwkw for the boost/setup you have.

So whilst you had bung plug, it doesn't explain the rest. Or why the plug was fouled in the first place.

I was stating a fact - It was totally neutral.

Have a look at his post history. He's had a number of issues with the car of late.

If stating fact is a non friendly tone, well stuffed if i know what your talking about.

And yeh she is running 44 psi is that ok?

That is the factory psi, since it is adjustable you may as well up it a little on your next tune to give your self more headroom and keep it safe.

Yeh well I'm not sure maybe the fact im running a stock exhaust manifold and intake manifold ?

Yeh I have a good exhaust setup 3.5 inch cat back and it's only a new FPR and pump , what fuel pressure is recomended ?

So judging by those 2 comments im assuming that you have factory manifold, dump, front dump and cat?

If so there is your problem, upgrade the dumps and cat first and see how it goes then do the manifold if needed.

    • Kinkstah, no, coilovers aren't illegal, especially as a bolt straight in. The illegal part will be if they're altering suspension geometry beyond factory limits, or the ride height is not legal.   Sounds like the blue slipper just didn't want to deal with any later possibility of mods appearing on the car.
    • The problem has always been that coilovers are able to be adjusted, almost at any time, to be too low. Most people who ever get/got defected for/with coilovers were actually afoul of the minimum ride height rule. So the interpretation by cops/inspectors was always that it is pointless to allow numpty to raise his coilovers and get the car inspected/cleared, then just drop them back down again as soon as they get around the corner from the inspection station.  This led to the interpretation that they were illegal unless rendered such that they can't be adjusted (ie, collars welded to the body, that sort of thing). That may or may not have ever actually been the official line, but I'm pretty sure it's not considered to be a solution these days. Coilovers themselves fall under clause 3.2 b of that manual, because they are an "installation of a variable ride height system" and they don't fit the exclusions in that clause (which point to air springs and other pneumatic adjusters). So, as per previous statements, they require engineering cert to be legal on the road. Once you have such cert, provided you do not adjust them outside the height range covered by the cert, you are OK. Without, you have an unroadworthy vehicle.
    • Here E10 is the cheapest fuel. And general advice is to not use it unless you hate your car. From what I remember it clogs up stuff in the fuel system or injectors?  With US/Canada being E10 across the board, does that mean that all fuel there is terrible?
    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW ) Edit: I checked. They aren't. https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-infosheet-light-vehicle-modifications-manual-suspension-and-ride-height.pdf
