We are coffee pals. I have the same machine (well actually the cheaper one without an LCD). 
Mine has been going strong for 5 years. It's been through three offices and now makes my morning coffee without fail.

Literally the greatest little coffee machine i could have asked for. I trust yours is going just as strong?

haha the 3x way solenoid carked it, however fixed now. The group head back flush failed, however this machine is about 5 years old and has pulled an easy 6000 shots of coffee. My wife & I do double shots each, each morning then when friends come over etc. we pump out coffee too.

Nah he pumped too much boost through it and blew some shit up, scroll back where he talks about fixing it. 

Keep up bro. 

Hahaha. My bad. MINE is still going strong, because I haven't removed the boost pill.

Yep. I don't think i'd be at 6000 closer to 4000 but yeah. Same same. If it breaks and I can't fix it i'll be off to buy the exact same one again. :D

Get the BES920 (same as what I have) as it has a dual boiler & also you can independently adjust the steam temp/water temp & also the pre-infusion (makes all the difference).

I like coffee lol.

Back to fine tuning the bong again, aiming for  4 cups at 3 hours. Have 48g in and 480mL of cold water (ice cubes in there too).

First time using these beans, however flavour profiles sounds good.

I really should be servicing the R33 before I put it on the dyno next week.

Also thinking I should dump the external to atmosphere as it makes for better Instagram videos.

My nearly legal but visibly not legal, legal when off boost exhaust system.

Now ready for dyno mode ?

Nice Helmholtz chamber when in screamer mode, that should really negate the drone, until the gate opens that is.

Thank you to Alex and the team at Birrong Automotive for letting me use their workshop and dyno.

2bar boost just because why not, 19 degrees of timing. There's more in it, however the intake temps are kissing mid 40s with the China bing bong core. I did order a Plazmaman Pro Series but didn't come in time.

I'll grab the logs and dyno sheet off my laptop later.

I R GOOD GUESS.

Rear housing size looks like it worked well. 

Did you go 76 or 100mm core? Even the 76 helped a lot on the GTR and that was comparing to stock cooler which was already "decent" .

Guessing 10-20rwkw still on offer based on dataz supplied. If only 10 then my guess range still works, if more then I was wrong and I will feel so bad about it.

I could have made it come on a bit earlier, however getting the 4 port dialled in is not fun, spent a bit of time troubleshooting it with Alex @ Birrong Automotive. It's so sensitive, even at 16hz and with a 0.5bar gate spring sub 50% duty cycle and I can command in 2bar of boost.

Dropping the solenoid frequency down to low teens caused a ripple in boost however allowed for better control.

I ended up ordering a 76mm because I am tight arse lol.

Once the cooler goes on and I try to keep the 2bar all the way to the rev limiter, I am sure that 430~440kW mark isn't far off!

Thank you for the dataz ❤️ but you know I'm going to ask to see the timing map as well lol 

In the end was the 21 degrees MBT or was there still more in it?

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
