No need for a pod mate, you will only go backwards. simply cut a few holes on the side of the airbox if you think the snorkel is restricting flow. I have seen nearly 500kw through a cotton panel element.

Braided hoses won't help much, they are only rated to 200 degrees anyway. Bring it around again sometime and we can try and run new rubber hoses over the top of the engine. Or when we do the oil cooler perhaps.

Moh, you are the bitch. :P

Update:

Car issue all sorted

Ended up being a faulty CAS

22 psi down to 18 psi, conservative tune to make sure it is all ok.

Then will be coming back with 2-3 degrees more timing (~20rwkw) and up to 6 psi boost

Top line no airbox

2nd line airbox restriction

30kw gain from not having the airbox lid is interesting, shame we didn't run it up with the lid on and no filter though.

Yes will have to book my car again in the future to modify that airbox :/

holy shit mother f**ker yoda and shit.

you got the 350 you wanted on 98, and then add some for E85. (this is on E85 yeah?)

Yeah tune is on e85

Trent said its going to go over 400rwkw easily once we bump up the timing again and boost

But yeah don't need that much power! Happy with my airbox limited 350rwkw for now lol

Haven't even had a chance to boot it yet, wonder if I will have traction....

Interested about the airbox issue my tuner told me same of being held back some kws due to the airbox. But I've also seen people proving that there are no gains with pods.

Depends at what power level I spose

Im sure at 280rwkw difference would be neglible but once you get up in power it makes power harder to get rather than a brick wall restriction

Updates?

Sorry no real updates, have been overseas and taken a step back from working on the car

I think its time to stop spending money on cars lol

In saying that hit a rock in the middle of the freeway that split my lower lip.

So that will get fixed with the insurer along with fixing the whole front bumper, then when I get money a set of D9R's then i think im set :)

what body kit is that mate? looks crazy

Just a Ztune kit mate :)

I was following your thread really closely up until/before you got the kit (and it was still white haha)

Ermagersh you have come a long way man, absolutely balls to wall in terms of the build. Hoping to follow a similar path when I get off p's; in terms of the GTR kit.

PS
I looked up JDL they really don't ship to AUS :'(

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
