Another 34 Tiptronic Thread

[nauto34]

hi all, currently doing stage 1 mods to my 34 gtt, couple of questions in relation to the tiptronic. i'm a noob with pretty much everything mechanical as this is my first from stock diy project (well a bloody patient mate and i to be honest) it's an auto, i know but i don't have a manual license (give me a license to ride a 1000cc repsol but not a manual car, go figure), besides that it's all i can afford till i scrape up enough coin for a 34gtr and get my manual license of course (6th time lucky)

work to date from stock;

safc

greddy fmic

blitz pod

ces dump pipe (splitter)

high flow cat (3" turbo back basically)

to be done this weekend;

walbro fuel pump

tomei fuel reg

waste gate actuator

avcr .

1. will be dyno'd next week and i'm planning on throwing mv auto's upgraded valve body and "black box" in. I've been told by a mate to wait until it comes off the dyno and see how it go's without before ordering them?

2. anyone done similar mods to an auto 34, what rwhp can i expect and approximate 1/4 mile from the mods above

3. Launch controller and the tiptronic, is this a good idea?

4. anyone have a sitc for sale?

appreciate any tips on anything else that i should be doing before tuning.

cheers

also, atf cooler question? is it necessary to get a bigger one? whats the optimum temp/viscocity of the tranny fluid. my stock cooler is between the radiator and fmic, do most peeps relocate them? upsize, relocate or add fan with thermostat switch?

Hey mate so my 34 4dr auto has the following mods

Just jap FMIC

Turbo back custom 3inch stainless steel exhaust

Apexi super suction kit ( Makes the car woosh thats about it lol )

Turbo Smart boost tee (Running13 psi)

Nistune chip

That's all i have really done and on the dyno it ran 194Rwkw on a hot day which I'm happy with.

Once the tune has been done the auto gearbox seems to run better any way as they can change shift patterns ect.

I have heard that the auto box's should be good up to around 250wrkws any way so if your going to do it, do it after the tune that way you can see how it feels.

Ps. The main issue that I'm having these days is trying to keep traction at the rears no joke im researching new tires and everything lol
