Well after have some thieves try on several occasions to steal my VL turbo a few years ago I can say that the ol 33 is very tightly tucked away.... They would have to be very very keen to try to take it.... But still you don't want to hear about these things soo close too home...

they pushed it 200m down the road

i have an alarm with door, boot bonnet, and glass brakeage sensors, also have an immoboliser, but they got past it some how.

They ripped out the ignition barrel to break the stearing lock so they could push it down the road.

It was insured with the RAC 3rd party fire and theft. They told me i have an escess of $1050 so i told em to get ****ed

the thing i had stolen where

panasonic 4x45 head unit

pioneer 220w 6x9

pioneer 4 channel amp

rockford fosgate 12" sub in sealed box

splitfire 5" monster tachoi w/shift light

plus not to mention how my car was left...

back seat was onm the road, carpet ripped up everywhere.

all panels wires etc ripped out and left hanging everywhere.

what i can get over is they stole the whole rear parcel shelf, they wheren't satisfied with just the speakers im guessing :)

Hi Guys,just came back from SST. We couldnt push the car to redline because the boost was creeping TOO much. So im gonna go back with a profec EBC and theyre gonna port my wastegate hole too. But without even pushing it to redline my car made 274HP,this was at erm 140+km/h i think

-so theres lots more potential left in them steve reckons

    • Ok so will run the piping over that radiator and no plenum it is. Put that money towards a Haltech and see what suits. Any ideas something like an elite 2000 or 2500 right? My long term goal is 300kw e85 and manual swap and that’s a dream come true. For now will be 200kw and auto the stock rb25det neo intake isn’t too expensive with throttle body. If I was to have the port matching done, Would that be better than the stock de intake as the det has bigger holes plus has the spots for sensors etc? And suit more long term?  appreciate the advice?   
    • 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
