Had a great day out at a cold Collingrove today - with the intention of shakedown runs prior to Time Attack Round 3 on June 13th. Recently, the car has been upgraded to run 'corn gas' with a new set of ID1000cc injectors from Tuff Car Parts, and fuel system mods thanks to Pete and the guys at Autosport.

With a massive thanks to Martin and the crew from Willall Racing, the car picked up 50kw at the wheels with 3 psi less boost, which is most definately noticeable on track! Fitted with a developmental Willall Racing upgraded braking package, and the Mt Alma Mile-spec wheel and tyre package, I was able to pilot the angry beast to a CLASS WIN, testament to the excellent support from the previously mentioned sponsors and Major Sponsor Willall Racing.

I am looking very much forward to running Mallala in a couple of weeks.........

Awesome work Andrew - I was getting excited just talking about your car last Friday at Willall's - can't wait to actually see the beast in action. What was your best time?

Far out mate, you dont muck around. Only the other week you were saying about some upgardes coming and now BAM, you done them all. Well done and congrats.

I'll be there one day in the near future.

Cheers guys - the car is really coming along nicely now thanks to many hours of work in the cars' Secret Development Headquarters (which also doubles as a shed - how 'bout that!). I've got the tyre warming sequence on camera, I'll upload it soon as I get some time. That and the crazy in car. Cold track, medium compound slicks and lots-O-power didn't make my life easy for the run up the footpath to the top! thumbsup.gif

Bit better than the piss weak amount of smoke from Alma hey. Good work on the win, I'll have a look at the trophy when I'm over next. This car is going to be really one to watch once its all sorted and your new wheels finally arrive!

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
