Was my choice to change it. I didn't think it was acceptable after a few minutes of thought.

Anyway, there are a few nice VL's out there, just too many drivers think they are unbeatable, and traffic light drags are for idiots.

That is funny.

I had a bloke do a similiar thing in a VT Supercharged V6.

It was peak hour traffic, he was booting it and backing off, we pulled up at a set of lights.

He said something to the tune of "Is that turbo mate" "We just got this car its a supercharged V6"

I said "WOW.."

He said "Well lets go then"

I said "To much frigging traffic around its peak hour traffic der"

Even after all that is still nailed it off the line. Idiot.

Funny story. My ex-gfs brother has a VL turbo. Anyway, after side-swiping a pole trying to drift it, it was off the road for 12 months while he (well mostly his dad) replaced panels, fixed dents etc, and sprayed it. Came up pretty good too. One week after he got it back on the road, flogging the hell out of it as he does (with all his passengers saying "slow down"), he smashes his front end into a pole, then bounces it backwards into another pole. Now I KNOW VL drivers are idiots.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
