Flying performance (www.flyn.com.au) are selling 8L High Flow Cats. I think they may even be Catco ones, on Ebay starting bid $199. I got one for $200. It's on the way. Or you can buy straight from their website for about $250.

dont expect the the rwc thing will be cut and dry, my rwc cos me $1200 and took a week to get sorted.

things to look for

tyres, any sign of wear at all

sterring wheel, if not stock

make sure the places acually knows what size rotors your brakes are supposed to have

any body damage that may have taken place during shipage, look underneath the body

Back to square 1...

Failed my RWC today + still have no Engineering certificate also... my Registration was booked in for tomorrow. Not going well at the moment.

Driving the car with the standard feels like I got BIG MUMMA LISA is sitting in the back seat and they also chucked on a resinator about the size of 3 melways stacked on top of each other.

Inark.. I will send you a PM for the roadworthy place.... this list was given to me by RWC place to get fixed / looked at.

External wastegate

Drilled rear rotors have hairline cracks (common for drilled rotors yeh?)

Turbo Timer (easy fix)

Horn (because it was stolen by shipping co. - also easy fix)

Battery clamp (original battery went flat and could not hold a charge so bought a new one, smaller - easy fix)

Tank exhaust sheild to close to my milo tin (easy fix)

I pick the good ones don't I...

Thanks for your help and advice so far... I'm starting to hate my car and I've only driven it about 45km TOTAL.

      Ball bearing turbos

      The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.

      Ball bearing turbos

      Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist

      Forced Performance Hta Turbos

      Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.

      Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
