I want to hear how much difference in noise the wastegate makes... If its not overly loud I can always change my pipes, dont think it'd be too hard But I'm more going for the sleeper kind of look I think... quiet and un-suspecting Hmmm, might call my accountant early next week and see if my tax papers are ready to sign and send off

[GTS-t VSPEC]

LOL @ Rob, ready to spend more money already? There loud but hell so is the rest of my car already:D

[rob77]

If a tubular exhaust manifold gets my spoolup time below 4000rpm it might be worth doing. Would make the power more usuable. As it is now you have to drive the car hard to make the boost and that means I'm doing 100+ on 60km/hr streets at times

[rob77]

Just curious about the sound... havent really heard one. I think for my needs, day to day driven its probably best to have it all plumbed back in, if I was driving my car all day like a sales rep or something I'd have a headache at the end of the day from the noise I reckon.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Rob, That's how I drive my car normally:D See what happens with the computer done, it you still want better response then try the manifold:D

[rob77]

SO when do you think it'll be all ready to go on? You going to put the turbo on yourself or get grant to hook it all up?

[GTS-t VSPEC]

LOL @ Rob:D I love the sounds of a screamer, I'll take you for a spin once it's done:D

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Nah, Ray is doing all the work. Hoping to have it all done by next Friday:D Then get Steve to tune it:D

[rob77]

Well, if it only makes the turbo spoolup like 500rpm quicker for $1k spent in parts and another $xxx spent in labour it probably wont be worth it. Spent enough money on the car as is.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Ray had the turbo and manifold all off in 1hr. We're replacing the manifold studs and gaskets, so it will all be brand new:D

[rob77]

Cool, let me know when you are dyno/tuning I wanna try and turn up and see then you can take me for a blat. Anyway bedtime I think.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Rob, That's why I'm getting it all done in one hit, svaes having to repeat the labour costs:D

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Night Rob, Will keep you informed:D

[rob77]

Cool, maybe I should get ray to work on my car too

[dAVE]

sup

[rob77]

Yeah, I'm trying to do everything on a budget. Guess you have to expect some sub-standard results then. But I dont think its that bad, the car is by no means a lag monster or slow.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Hi Dave.

Rob, Maybe:D

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Rob, I'm surprised by the power you've got already, the lag is the only drawback, and that can be fixed:D

[rob77]

Yeah my stock ecu is amazing ah well wolf3d soon now I dont have to worry about injectors... might even be next week, hehe... nah, I think I'll wait a bit and let my money pile grow again. Interest on the home loan has gone up a bit since I used some of the money offseting the interest.

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Guess it's my bedtime too:(
