    @JETURBO ya tight bastard lol, get rid of that cable tie and get some ebay ally spacers. 


    Neg looked silly on a 4 stack of different OD’s , been there done that old chap, plus SS ties with drawback tabs are fine with SS braid ;) 


    WTF ya banging on about re: Primer ?

  3. Ha yeh the sensors do leak mate, found out that way back in 2010 on my FG F6 310

     

    wind her out, buzz in a new one for $40 or bang a bolt in it instead as they only send the ECU a signal to bump idle speed by 50rpm when activated so basically not a thing that’s important so ditch it ;)

  4. They know, they've known for a while now as I wasn’t the one who’s worked this out… as I said the guys who tested and R&D’d the changeover set up worked it out and recommended it be pulled but any positive can have a negative attached to it and the gain of new opportunity might be worth the “Potential” negative. 
     

    Dunno, Don’t care really just know how to navigate a better way of tuning past a factory TMAP than bluffing it 

  5. That’s my point Nathan…. Smashing/dancing/feathering the throttle exposes it to this area of danger and with testing pre/post TB it became obvious there was big issues being covered up and causing damage along the way. You’ll never know it’s there unless you go looking for it with test data and with that came proof it’s not the best option. 
     

    Cat007 - last part of my post champ… it’s the same reading resolution TMAP as factory down low. It drives 100% stock and I’ve used it on a few customer builds now with brilliant results hence moving on with technology and better ways to deliver tunes. 
     

    That said the bosch blue 3 Bar is a beautiful little TMAP that works really well too ;)

  6. It’s actually pretty obvious when you consider it in the non WOT application… Why is the TMAP located where it is ? What isn’t the BPS seeing and what separates the two sensors ?

    Then think about fast transient throttle applications like doing a burnout… What’s that TMAP blind from if you’ve worked past it’s range ? 
     

    The potential for incorrect fuel supply is there in a big way especially with excess boost pressure behind the TB blade then big gulps of unmetered Air to inrush. 
     

    I’m using (as are most workshops) the new Omni power 5 Bar TMAP sensors with flawless low end resolution (28kpa as the factory sensor is) and 58psi boost control set & forget ;)

  7. That’s not the reason at all workshops don’t do or recommend this method. It came, it worked, it has major flaws we moved on ;) 

     

    So much so the two major workshops who helped implement it had tried to get it removed from the software update. 

     

    OP just do what your tuner recommends you do buddy 

  8. That sucks mate 

     

    But…. Blokes who don’t deck the block and have the head finished as a bare minimum should always except a failure and if it doesn’t you’re lucky… it’s not the other way around !

     

    Yes been there done that and know it’s worth the effort every time now but can appreciate rolling the dice, actually have a set up near on 600rwkw living on a non prepped surfaces  and to negate this less than favourable condition I go a cut ring gasket (Athena) and 110ftlb on the studs (ARP) and 120ftlb (Atomic) M12’s but again it’s “Rolling the Dice” …. Risk VS reward something something….
