Yes, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Pete for coming over to help me with a massive dump, couldn't have done it without you... :P

Here are some photos, (suppose its about time I make a build thread though lol)

Here is all the shininess in its final location:

Old vs new: 691a06ef-7622-4146-8d36-ac6db647780e_zps

This will probably cause the best improvement, the old throat was LITERALLY a 1" square passage! (Fck you Mitsubishi):

A friend of mine works at the APS centre in Melbourne, posts up photos of cars he tunes. Last night he posted this...

280hp AFTER a performance tune. That's cute. Makes you wonder why you'd even bother spending that much money if you're going for performance?!

Spent bout 2 hrs in nistune today.

Swapped ecus over between pnk and silver bullet. Just to rule out the ecu as my issue. Both ecus in caras car work fine. Spent remainder of the time tinkering with mine. Think I am getting somewhere. Idle is good. Next step is mounting the wideband and going for a drive ;)

    • 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)
