Restriction is the turbo exhaust housing I believe...

3" JJR Stainless Bellmouth Dump/Front pipe

3" Highflow cat, which isn't even a 100 cell, I think its 200 or 300?

and it was pretty much a straight though system with the Kaki R (2 mufflers)

You gonna come to the ethanol side anytime soon? Keeps the backside nice and clean :)

Nein... I do too many km's to be even more inconvenienced by needing to be picky about which servo I can go to... Would need to swap turbo to get the most out of the extra power as well...

if i ever plan on going to Vietnam i would do something similar.

Was actually planning on going to Panama last year to do a 9 day kayaking trip through the carribean. i pussied out though.

Got some pics

Accommodation at this beach was $10 a night for a cabin and $25 for a pimped out room

I only gained 20rwkw up top because of my small turbo, but in some parts of the midrange I gained 40rwkw. Plenty of Uniteds around; there's one 5 mins from where we live (near Alvin) and a 24 hour one off Eastlink in Scoresby. So worth it!

Come on Scotty gimme backup...

You just can't tell some people.

If Simon wants to be different and run Dinofuel who are we to single him out? He will come around one day, probably just after his ring lands go. :P

just too mut f**king around to go etOH,

so i'll stick with dino fuel.

most importantly without a proper jerb, no budget here.

If you've already got a tuned 98 with safe supporting mods, it's as simple as a tune. I don't even have a wideband. For the extra $500 or whatever your tuner charges, worth it to have an ethanol tune stored on a laptop should you want extra power for a given time period. I keep laptop in my car...if I don't have an ethanol station in sight, just go to a place with 98 and switch to 98 tune. Simples.

What do you hate about it? I think it's amazing someone could live like an absolute king in Hanoi. $450/week apartment in Melbourne is about $300 a month there. Get a small passive income and you're set for life. My only complaint was no chocolate milk, and no milk in general. Damn lactose intolerant Asians.

the general attitute of the locals.

DUe to working there for significant periods of time I got to know some.

they sit around with beers on a Friday discussing who F%$ded over the tourist the most as a joke.

only place I have been robbed

and then the hygiene, middle of town, watched lady carry baby into the street, hold it above the gutter so it could "go potty" then bring it back inside.

and the gourmet cooking:

So yes can live cheap, but a life I don;t want, where for less money I could be in Laos that was much better, or a little more gets you thailand.

my objective is to never go back.

Laos

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
