After installing my FMIC myself (cut hand with 5' grinder and punched myself in the eye with a socket wrench) I had it dyno tuned by Hardcore and running 14 psi it made 284.9 hp. I'm really happy with that as it is my daily driver but my BOV is really noisy now and I am considering going back to factory.

Thats 212.5kw for those that are wondering.

What quarter time do youz estimate for that?

:D

Sweeeet Terry!! Post up some pics I wanna see that front bar with the intercooler in. Don't you like the BOV? Is it plumb back?

It is a Monza (HKS ripoff copy) I used to like it but is really loud now with the extra boost. If you want it I will swap your factory pipe for mine plus some $$.

good stuff..

If u want, when i come to pick up those tyres this weekend, I can bring on the Blitz I have, and you can stick that on for a quick try if it has the same flange - just to try a different one (oh, and I want to hear how it sounds myself before i do my cooler :))

I've got a spare R33 crossover and BOV too.. are you using that stock boost solenoid still (or do you have an EBC) ? Maybe we can do a swap??

Predator - Turbosmart manual boost controller and I am running a Microtech MT12

Yeah that would be good bring up the stock as I have just blocked my standard BOV off

Nexus9 - Was thinking of upgrading fuel pump. Is that what you mean?

Nice job on the front bar mate!

Nah it's ok about the BOV thanks I have a Blitz Super Sound which I really like. Try one if you don't like yours, the sound isn't TOOO loud I think. I was alongside a 180 today that had a VERY loud atmo and I think it would have been too loud for my taste. Course I'm only running standard boost too...after I get a new ebc and fmic mine might be too loud too :)

Too loud BOV feels kinda embarassing to me

    • You understand AFR is not the only thing that contributes to it pinging yeah? Funnily, what the AFR gauge will tell you when it likely is pinging, is going to make you think things are really safe and good.
    • Run the piping how we all have for decades. Also the duel runners with the +T setup dramatically helps it gets on boost quicker. Yes, chase huge power it'll become a problem, but you're a long way off when you're already saying an aftermarket ECU is out of the budget. You also say NisTune as it's simple, and then immediately say it'll be painful, meaning... It won't be simple. It will likely cost you a lot more stuffing around with a Nistune, than just putting a Haltech or similar in.
    • I’ll order an afr gauge to keep an eye on it.  Then will get a haltech soon 
    • TD05 or maybe pulsar PSR2867r Gen 2?  id love a garret but it’s quite out the budget for now and I’m not chasing crazy power.    yeh fuel pump haven’t looked into but whatever works, kind of last on my list.    Nistune because it’s simple but Ik it’s a lot of pain especially as I’m auto +t with the whole seperate TCM etc still investigating that. Haltech id love but once budget tight for now atleast.    finally the reason I’m trying for a plenum instead of the stock intake is I already have a standard Intercooler mounted etc. so the ports are on both sides so trying to not have to go over the clutch fan radiator etc. trying to find a good deal return flow if I don’t than this will do for now I guess. btw any ideas with that, apparently some people have to cut blades to reduce it from hitting the Intercooler piping over the radiator ? Thanks 
    • I'm going to guess, likely headunit, and the twin cable likely went to an amp as a remote turn on feed.
