What effect does the turbine housing and wheel have on scavenging?

I am not sure your comparison is applicable at all.

Are you sure you know what scavenging is? The turbine housing and wheel have very little effect on that.

Who drives a turbo car off boost anyway?

The only off boost you should have, is waiting for the lights to go green...

I'm sure most people drive off boost. Any time at all I hit full boost regardless of the speed limit there are 2 black lines out the back. So it is off boost for me thumbsup.gif

wow now your telling Nismoid how important it is stay legal when he is pretty much the spokesperson for having a legal or under the radar car...

you know Ive have many, what could be called illegal mods but Ive never had any problems, even when pulled over for rbt...

and Im not a grandpa driver so I dunno, dont hang with hoons I guess.

I'll go with the biggest cat, is half an inch really going to make that much diff in a negative way..

WOW!!! Spokesperson my butt. If he was the legal dude you say he is then he would be recommending the OP a legal cat wouldn't he. Not just contradicting my posts with nothing useful to add. Much like the majority of the people commenting on this thread.

So where was your useful advice again?? Oh wait there wasn't any...

There's nothing illegal about having a 5" cat though. If a car is too loud, I wouldn't go about fixing the problem by using a smaller cat. One or two good mufflers and it will all be legal without causing too much of a restriction.

And let's face it... If a cop wants to sticker you, there's plenty of other things they can get you for.

That's it majority of the time cops will sticker you even for parts from factory that they believe are defects they are that dumb they don't know what they are looking at they only need to pretend to once the stocker is on it's up to the pits which it's them that pick everything

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
