  1. Yes I know where he is coming from that's ok. I havnt been beating up on it . And its not pinging ever and found that it drives quite nicely just resting on the throttle. I understand that it would be running a little lean that's why I got the bigger injectors here to go in when it gets tuned. I have tried them in as is but just belches out the black fuel smoke so I put others back in until tune. Are the x3 or x4 flash tuners òptional tuneing to suit mods or can you only download complete tunes to them through software
  2. 247 and its life has just began. CAI 4" TURBO BACK, INTO 2X 2.5"EXHAUST BIGGER COOLER 8-12 ACTUATOR 19" ROH WHEELS. DEKA 60-87LBS INJECTORS (To be installed if necessary) that's about it really all the other bullsh*t has just been bolt on bolt off process of elimination

  4. I rang rob he reckons the car has done too many ks and hes not interested. The car has been stock standard all its life and owned by someone from a church group and is in quite good condition so I'll move on.
  5. Understood thanks velocity. While ive got yous here opinion on gearboxes , stay with th 4 spd auto that is in the car , or fit the 6 speed manual that I have here , which is less likely to give dramas in the long run.? Or does it come down to personal choice
  6. Thanks JVK that's why such a high reading then because I do have it in the wrong spot I've got it tea PC into the actuator line
  7. And bamk2 understood enough said... nice knock knock illustration
  8. Thanks JVK And andrew again all advice taken. And Ratter I think its a capa 1
  9. Thanks for the input guys I appreciate all of it so far. Andrew only fitted the blow off valve because I had a dual port Turbosmart here and I thought this was general rule of thumb upgrade unbeknown to me I think this is just a wank Factor upgrade,does sound awesome but I don't think it helps with the performance still learning.. I will tape those plugs in as well just to eliminate the loose fittings
  10. No its not tuned properley as yet, whhich I know could be the major factor of my problem but I do have a capa flash tuner that is not married to a car and was a mate of mine who had similar mods maybe not as bigger exhaust not sure what exhaust he had but mine is 4 inch from Turbo back through a high flow cat to diff and then splits into two two and a half and exits both sides of the car through mufflers at the back. The kapa has a 10 12 and 15 PSI settings in it, I have changed the original actuator which was quite week 2A 8 to 12 psi actuator, I have also replaced the original plumb back b o v now 2 a good one. I will rewind the story a little bit here, when the car was completely stock I wanted to up the boost a little bit I was thinking of changing the actuator but wasn't sure which 1 to get so I plugged in a manual boost controller just to get a little bit of an idea on which actuator to get to suit the car in that process I think it blow out the intake manifold gasket and from then on this problem has been present if that helps a little to explain when it started. Someone said yesterday it more than likely will just need a tune now but I'm still waiting to get a few things in the mail that I want to fit on the car and then I will take it in I suppose to get the tune not sure where to go does anyone have any suggestions for a reasonable priced tune in Perth. I have the capa flash tuner as I said which may have to be altered to suit my car. I only have fuel pump and map sensor oxygen sensor left in my vocabulary for this car, I really don't think it is the fuel pump because I did fit the bigger injectors only to blow Clouds of black fuel smoke which to me is an indication that the Pump is pumping sh*tloads of juice so other than the tune is just a couple of sensors that hasn't been changed and if it is not one of those 2 things I'll be up the Cadbury Canal with no paddle
  11. Hi andrew we thought the same thing so I actually bought some coil packs the other day NGK ones go for a drive zactly the same problem I have fitted a turbo smart dual port b o v to the pipe at the front on top of intercooler I disconnected the vacuum line off the originals plumb back b o v sounds good and all but I disconnected the vacuum line of both b o v take it for a drive and it is 50 percent better tonight I had to go out so I quickly put some vice grips on the pressure side of the original b o v still disconnected no vacuum and it is probably a nother 10 20 percent better I don't know if it is safe to do so or not but I think I'm going to remove the plumb back b o v and see how that goes I got a funny feeling its something to do with that I was watching the boost gauge while accelerating it is now going around to 15 PSI and from 1st to 2nd just hits 20 with a small psshh in between gears from the ts bov still plumbed in at the front minus vacume line then as its reaching to 15 again flutter drops cylinders and my excitement . Feels exactly like when traction control kicks in
  12. Not tuned as yet it had this problem b4 upgrades and I thought it was the intake gasket leaking that was causing it ive since replaced that as it was in three pieces.I noticed when changing plugs the 2 cam plugs and the first 2 coil plugs are missing the lock in clips, could it be these loose connections
  13. Hey guys I have a 2004 BA XR6 turbo I have a problem with the car dropping cylinders under load any ideas
