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.

Statement A: High flow cats are LEGAL in NSW now.

Statement B: Ash, Stop talking sense. You are making other people look like idiots.

This coming from a guy who told me I would make 250rwkw from my setup. worship.gif

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

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      So I raised the car up a fair bit for shipping - see image - then lowered it again when it arrived. I then rushed to get an alignment in NL before the track and the shop just wasn’t anywhere near as precise as what I got in Japan. The guys that did the alignment this week said there was a fair amount of toe in the rear that could have contributed to the understeer. It was also the case that the rear camber went from about -2 to -3 at the shop in NL. However, since I’ve now got slightly wider tires in the rear - NS2Rs run wider than Accelera 651S - I could only get a minimum of -3 in the rear now due to clearance. Front is now -2.75 (-2.45 in minutes) due to being raised a bit (previously -3 in JP). So it’s likely a combination of the two factors, camber and toe. The issue now is I have more camber in the rear than the front and the next step on the front Cusco arms will put me at -3.5ish front which seems a bit excessive to me. The weird thing is I’ve never had any understeer at the track in Japan but they are very different circuits - Japanese circuits are much slower than the one I’ve been to here.    I’m probably going to have to start another thread for the E90. The plan is sort of to keep it as a daily but progressively mod it into a track car - honestly, you need a cage for the sort of speeds you go here. Just ordered the M3 front arms btw.  Love the car despite it being in pretty shitty condition. Oil analysis came back okay and it seems to have stopped consuming oil since fixing a load of engine bay things. Saw yours is a 335i right? f**king mistake on my part getting the DI N53 over the N52, fuel economy is insanely good though at 14-16 km/L.   Cheers, it’s great to see the benefits and pitfalls of different places. I’m contemplating going back to the U.K. around next year as the cost of living in the Netherlands is just ridiculous. GF is nagging me to settle and buy a house but I don’t know what LSD to buy.

      Have you seen the Milwaukee Train Horn? It's a beast! I stumbled upon it while browsing for upgrades. I'm thinking of adding it to my ride for some serious sound. Here's the link if you wanna check it out: https://bosshorn.com/products/milwaukee-train-horn. Anyway, thanks again for sharing your method.

      Anybody home...? I used to moderate this part of SAU about 20 years ago... hard to beleive it's still around basically unchanged with all the old posts pinned at the top. Amazing to read all those posts again.  If anyone drops by, I'm still in Japan (Nishinomiya, between Osaka and Kobe).  Cheers 🙂
