  1. Tried launching it in second today and it was no bueno. Spun the fark out of it, hit limiter at 7 grand and went into limp home mode. I think a locked transfer case is on the cards, just for r&d and also s&g. Why not chuck in some spg while I'm there
  2. It sure did. In other news, does anyone have an external gate t4 housing to suit a gt35 in a 1.06 ar they wanna lend me for research purposes? I'll pay for postage etc and repay the lender/forum with a dyno graph of the difference between my current internal gate/stock bf ex manifold result and the result of a 6boost high mount with the housing requested along with my gen2 gtx3582r front half. I'm not fussed either way but it would be cool to see the difference before I chuck the bigger turbo on.
  3. I was wondering where the rest was
  4. Yeah man do it, it's not as hard as it looks.
  5. Ah ok fair enough. Yeah I wouldn't want to pay for the stuff I've done to my territory. It's already got a lot of money into it and it'd easily be double to get a shop to do it.
  6. Oh wow that just snapped like nothing! I think I'll be down that road soon.
  7. How did you manage that? All the killawasps?
  8. I started working full time a couple of months ago. I only work on my cars on the weekends now cos there ain't no time during the week really, with kids and making dinner etc. Haha I'm more surprised that I made the exhaust as good as I did, than making over 500. There is no secret to making the power but a fair bit of money is needed to make stuff reliable. In other news I managed a 3.95s 0 to 100 It could be a bunch of things man but an occasional misfire shouldn't be too hard to sort out.
  9. Yeah man I'll grab it then. Text me tomorrow if you want. Yeah that was 4th gear on the awd DD dyno. I held 4th at 40 to 45kph on the detent for a couple of seconds then let it rip. I had the ramp rate at 200 cos I was worried about the trans.
  10. I actually got it to 25 psi but it made less power so put it back how you see it in the graphs. I basically asked for 20psi until 4000rpm then ramped it up to 24 up top and this is the result.
  11. Haha it doesn't smoke all 4 but it hauls ass pretty good. It actually hooks up when you mat it, even in second gear...it kinda lets go a bit depending on the road surface. It would smoke up if I launched it hard but I ain't about to kill the trans if I can help it. I brought the boost in slower which probably helps.
  12. Yeah it went fine. I found the limit of the actuator and or stock exhaust manifold. It made just over 500awkw at about 24psi.
  13. Well it didn't blow up today so I call that a win
  14. I'm putting it on e85 and heading down to the dyno later today. I get the feeling that it's gonna be pretty rowdy
  15. Just did a bit of road tuning to check for knock. Was a touch there at 4 grand so pulled over and pulled timing out. Apparently the exhaust is working cos it makes 20psi by 3080rpm and creeps up to 23psi by 5700rpm...at 0% wgdc. It touched overboost at 5900 and 24.5psi and went blblblblblbl as they do. I'll address this in the tune and it'll be fine. Good news is no knock while any of this shenanigans was going on so I'll just have to live with it for now.
  16. Ahaha maybe not, I still have a sore neck from looking up all day! I reckon you could drive in, drive out for $2000 with what I've done here. If you wanted a muffler then there would be another $400 to $600 roughly. The v-bands were $130 delivered for 4 of them, I bought 4 x 45's, 4 x 90's, 3 metres of straight and the resonator for $660. I used all the 45's, 1650mm of straight and none of the 90's. The 90's and some of the remaining straight will be used to make the dump for the big turbo and I made sure to have some spare bends in case. I already had the dump and cat but with them included, I spose all up the system cost around the $1000 mark.
  17. It was 8 hours total to remove the old exhaust and make the new one etc. I reckon I could do the same in 6 hours next time I put a 45 over the cradle, after the small kick up from the straight pipe. Then I used a couple of 45s to finish it off to the resonator.
  18. Cheers mate, it doesn't leak and it doesn't bang on anything so I'm calling that a win lol. It's kinda off it's tits really. It definitely is a 10/10 performance system and a 3/10 comfort system.
  19. Yep it sure is. I think I'll chuck a muffler in the middle soonish.
