Congrat's on running in the 10's mate! Solid terminal speed too.

I'm hoping to have similar potential and will have the extra capacity very soon, minus the 4WD.

Yes mate.

Not 100% sure yet, might refit the larger Stage V turbine housing and wheel that my current T62-1 came with. I downsized to the Stage 3 as it wasn't as responsive as I wanted at the time. The extra capacity should solve that issue and give more top end. A small increase in peak power is enough to keep me happy - low-mid 400. More torque across the board is what I really want.

The other option is a Garrett GTX or something similar but yet to do the research.

Forced performance HTA range is a better option than Gtx, same or more power than gtx with better response

Id be listening to Andrew^^, they sound awesome,, pity they only started to biggish stuff, otherwise id definitly try out there 76mm gt42

cheers

Hey Darren, been a while mate! Was chatting to Rob earlier in the year and asked how you were going and what you were up to.

I am very keen to go down the FP HTA path now thanks to the input from Andrew and yourself. Cheers.

matt,

Theres a heap of results on the evo forums from USA, they make some big power on high boost and run into the 8s down the 1/4mile...

Whats getting done to your motor, what head?

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
