In fact, it will hardly even lose it in second, if at all.

For the record, I'm running 225 Dunlop SP3000's on the stock rims.

Maybe the stocko 16inch rims give better straight line traction?

Totally agree, ive been of the same opinion with all these guys who claim 200rwkw and thier car is out-there in 2nd/3rd.

I was running 16” wheels, 225’s... Dunlop 3000A’s. Reasonably hard rear end with only mild travel

270rwkw - no dramas at all

~330rwkw - it skated in 2nd, but not sideways or so much i couldnt keep my foot flat to the floor. It did skate top end of 3rd a little bit too. But so slight it was of no concern.

Perhaps we're seeing a limit with the stock cam setup because I was actually expecting more from this turbo (GT30) considering you guys have injectors giving you enough fuel for far more than 250rwkw.

I did 270rwkw on pulp/17psi stock head

I also ran up ~330rwkw (cant remember exact number) on 104fuel/24psi stock head. Both were same dyno etc etc for comparison. The only reason we didnt crank more boost was the stock bits couldnt provide enough ignition over 24psi.

yes, but stiffen it up and there is less travel so its again more inclined to break traction, just as when there was a lot of travel.

Its a lot of farting around, belive me, ive been toying with it for a while and will be doing more as i go ;)

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
