Check this lot out. Those poor cars.

Guess soemone forgot to tie something down and someone else did not check properly. Maybe it was the same bloke on the ship who steals the stereos.

I would not be too concerned as this is rare but still costly if you only salvage say the wheel nuts. Worse than that would be sinking of a ship then total loss and not even a souvenir of the wheel nuts or pics or anything just empty bank balance. I think you will find insurance is very expensive and then the hoops you have to jump through to make a claim. "Well the ship may have sunk but may be refloated in the future so will have to wait" or" Get us three quotes on repairs and we will assess this one. Well it was on the high sees and not covered by insurance in Australia as such and you should call Japan or maybe Indonesia as closer to them at the time of the typhoon. If it was a cyclone then no problems."

Yes something big and heavy alright and would have cleared a path and got more momentum with each thump and roll of the ship. You would think they would have heard something but then what do you do to stop it?

yes the worst thing is if the ships sinks you are liable for general average and will have to pay part of the salvage cost for the ship and at the end you will get back a: nothing or b: a useless water damaged rusting car.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
