So, car is getting dropped off to Jez this coming Saturday. Needless to say I'm pretty keen.

Brief run down, Xspurt 1000cc, Walbro fuel pump, Z32 AFM. I was originally planning to fit a Hypergear SS2, but decided the slight power increase wasn't worth the coin. Plus I really enjoy the responsiveness of the current high flow that is fitted. Hypergear rates them to ~260rwkw which should still be nice and fun.

After discussions I have also opted to change from the PowerFC to a Nistune. There is something else worth mentioning here, but I'll wait until it's done, unless someone can guess :ninja:

A friend at the hill climbs also finally posted up the video of my "tyre warmup procedure" haha.

Haha, nice :laugh: .

At the Hillclimb I did, you were only permitted to 'clean the tyres', and you got kicked off for 'doing a burnout' :closedeyes: .

Whats the difference? :rolleyes:

^^ This. Lol.

That video was on my last run but I had done pretty much the same the last run. My 'warmups' gradually got bigger each time haha.

So the car has been with Jez since last Saturday, and I am picking it up this coming Saturday.

Battery has been relocated to the boot.

New intake piping has been made up.

Injectors, fuel pump (direct feed wired up), and Z32 AFM have all been installed.

Nistune board is installed in the stock ECU and the car is on the dyno today with a fresh set of plugs and a new fuel filter :D

Ok guys car came off the dyno yesterday afternoon.

I'm pretty happy with the results. Peak power was 238.5rwkw at 18.6psi dropping to 16.2psi. The turbo was literally running out of puff and couldn't push anymore power, which is evident by the fact it made 237.4rwkw at 16psi haha. The car also made 203.8rwkw at 10psi, which is the same power it was making when the original owner tuned the car with the stock turbo at 15psi lol. The car also made 610nm of torque which I was surprised about and pretty damn happy with.

Cheers guys.

Good results but I thought Stao said his new highflows made way more power than that.

Is this an older version or something Timmy?

I have owned the the car for roughly 2 years and the high flow was done 6 months prior to me purchasing the car.

When I messaged Stao he suggested it would be good for up to 260rwkw as we are under the assumption that it was the original OP6 turbo that was high flowed and refitted, I have nothing to confirm this though unfortunately. Jez said he recently tuned an OP6 high flow in a car running United 100 octane to 270rwkw so they are obviously capable. Being in the dark with the turbo it's hard to know. I was hoping to hit the 250kw mark, but it is still a responsive 240kw and has more torque than I was expecting, which will be more important for me really with entering NSW Hill Climb Champs next year :)

So, picked up the car on Saturday, pretty happy with how it performs, nice and responsive, sounds much nicer and has a bit of a rough sounding idle which is cool. Also, most high rpm gear shifts pop and sometimes shoot flames lol.

Anyway, after the 9 hour round trip to get my car, the inevitable happened once I got home.

For the first time ever, I was pulled over for a "random" vehicle inspection :(

The cops were from Armidale, being all the way out here because it was the Bathurst race weekend.

Luckily I received no fines, apparently because of my good attitude, but the car was defected for unenclosed pod, too low, and wheels protruding from the guards. Anyway, now I have 14 days (minus 2) to get the car to pass a full inspection/blueslip. Best/worst birthday lol. Happy times :'(

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
