Ross from works auto put one of those hurricane filters on for me yesterday, they are supposed to be a huge improvement over the HKS pod filter. Driving home tonight I'd put my foot down with 12psi of boost and it'd cut out as soon as it hit 12psi, so I dropped it back down to 9psi and it was misfiring bigtime at the top end and didnt feel like it was pulling past 5000rpm... any idea's? think I'll go back to the HKS pod and get a refund.

Ken - did Jeff say anything to you about the car and what i said?? I hope I didn't get you in  trouble

Nah , Jeff wasn't there and as I said , it's not a problem.

Only saw the car you were looking at outside in the dark and rain.

Didn't look too bad but can look at it closer once you decide if it's the one you want.

Cheers

Ken

Lack of restriction causing overboost and lean mixtures.

Seems strange cos I didn't think there would be that much diff between pod filters.

    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
    • For DBA, check out their guide table here. https://dba.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Direct_Replacement-Guide-2021.2.pdf   Additionally they have some other guides and info on how to make sure you choose the right pad.
    • Sorry, just assumed that talk of coloured pads meant EBC red/green/yellow/shit stuff. I don't know the DBA pads, but it's a reasonable bet that they will be OK. DBA make good stuff generally. Those 4000 series rotors I linked to are very good. I may well replace the RDA rotors I have with those when required.
