Hey guys.

I have jus brought a R32 GTS-T and will have it in two weeks.

It has a 3" cat back exhaust but i muct remove it as it bumps me over the power to weight ration.

So i am looking to swap it for a stock exhuast plus a small cash ajustment.

Anyone interest Pm me.

Please dont ask what brand or anything as i dont have the car yet and dont know exactly.

Mark.

I'll give you a wise piece of advice. If your car in standard form is under the power-to-weight ratio you have mentioned then you are fine to drive it with the 3" exhaust.

Police don't dyno tune your car and say "Sonny, your car is now over the power limit because of your exhaust"

This is a common misconception: provided your car is modified legally you can still drive it on your P Plates. You could have a 1000hp Excel and cops won't get you for power to weight.

read the guidlines on vic roads website for p plate legal cars.

The limit is 125 kw/tonne, and it states any modifications to the vehicle that improove performance, then the car must be re assesed. And i have spoken to them several times about this.

Basicly i wouldnt care about the cops getting me, its the fact my car would be un insured as it would be over the power to weight limit.

Pz.

      Engine Issue

      Resizing injectors in Nistune can be done a couple of ways, and there are a couple of ways that you can make a mess of it. The tuner needs to be really aware of the effects of whichever approach he uses (either K, or TIM). They are both easy enough to "get the injector size right" to run the engine. But little details like old start enrichment and hot start are affected differently, depending on which boxes you check.

      Pretty safe to say almost everyone that has tuned their own car has experienced this issue. The difference being that we have our laptop in the car and when it happens, it's literally 10 seconds of tuning to sort it.  Would you be happy to plug in your laptop and sort this yourself? It is a very simple process and there is no risk of harming your engine (if you are worried about that).

      Basically your tuner needs to drive it for the 30 min (or whatever) to create the same conditions then check the ECU settings and sensors at that time. They may not be excited to because that takes them 30 min rather than just opening the bonnet and seeing the problem straight away.... Hot start is generally not as tricky as cold start, but there would be a table for fuel enrichment vs coolant temp as a starting point

      Yeah, they all cant say anything for sure as everything is working fine . Said unable to find an issue untill it stops again. Could mist likely be CAS wiring or IAS valve issue but again not 100%
