Varied Dyno Results with rim/tyre change
Tuner sounds like a hack. I mean let’s be honest. Hacks are good for the industry. Keeps the professionals honest and shows the fact that there is actually no magic in tuning. I mean sh*t. I’ve got no tuning experience but I can tune a stereo like f**k

Another Overboost Question
Yes death to turbo if it sucks something through it. That is why I am running filter mesh on the front of my CAI.

Auto/manual Flash Tuner Is It The Same?
I'll probably get it for $250-$300 whats a new one worth with the generic 8&10 psi tunes in it? I am aware that I will probably need a custom tune at 10 psi but I'd be happy running 8 as my car is only running 4psi

Another Overboost Question
Hi guys, Sorry for another post on the same topic, but I have been reading & havent found the answer to my problem. I have a BA MkI XR6t manual, it is standard other than an xforce 3" and a custom CAI which I have done myself, the CAI goes straight over the PWR Steering pump and slips between the battery and headlight sitting about midway behind the head light. no filter just mesh on the front. It has started boost spiking since the I fitted CAI. I fitted a boost gauge a little while ago and it was showing a solid 4 PSI (which I though was low to start with. car is very slow) and maybe 5 PSI on a cold night higher in the rev range. Yesterday I fitted fitted my CAI and still 4psi then driving home from work full noise in 3rd gear at 3500 to 4000rpm it spiked to 8 psi and hit boost cut, same in 4th. it happened a few times till I thought I blew my car up as it started running on 5 cylinder then it came good again. I dont want to blow my car up, so can anyone help.? I thought about putting the intake back to standard but it does go a little better and I'm enjoying the sound. Future mods will be a flash to 8psi possibly 10psi absolute max, then a bigger cooler and retune. In that order. My car has just done 45000km's, could my Actuator be stuffed?? I would apprecaite any help I can get. thanks

Wow Just Drove The G6e Turbo
Hey all, I was just lucky enough to drive the G6E turbo,OMG sorry to bore you all with a useless thread but I was very impressed to say the least. especially seeing how fast it is for a standard production car. Having driven the FORCE 8 and the Typhoon this car is just so much faster IMO. Wish I had a spare 60k

Leaks
Hi, I was just wondering, with the hissing noise your talking about is it intermitent or constant? My xrt makes a hissing noise under load and its intermitent and gets faster up in the rev range, it sounds awful and its driving me crazy and im running out of ideas. I have replaced the manifold gasket as well as tightened all the bolts. any help would be appreciated.

Valve Springs/coil/plugs? Help!
Thanks for your help guys. although if it was the plugs wouldnt it happen under full load only and not when you back off?

Valve Springs/coil/plugs? Help!
Hey all, Just a quick question.. I took off from the lights the other day in my BA T and the car stuttered a bit around 5500rpm going into second and it kinda wouldn't go in. I had the car in drive so I wasn't manually shifting, by the time I backed off it was too late. the car sounded like it dropped a cylinder (running on 5). straight away I thought sh!t ive done the bottom end but I rolled for another 50 metres to find somewhere to pull over then it all came good. I was running 10 psi and it may be a generic tune not 100% sure thought. my car has just ticked over 100,000. thought maybe it could have been the valve springs, one of the coils or a plug. any one had this happen to them? I've loaded the 8psi tune in and the car is still running fine although im to scared to push it past 5000. Any thoughts

Vl Turbo 255kwrw Vs Xr6t 290kwrw
Hi all, just new to the site.. I've just recently converted from VLT's to XR6T's. To answer that you would probably get away with between 12-16k.. as for RWKW vs 1/4 times it all depends on where the car was dyno'd. For example Rajab tuned car 249rwkw in an SL = 10.9@123mph 20psi Bresciani tuned car 317rwkw in a s2 calais = 10.88@128mph 22psi make up your own mind I had 225rwkw in a calais and did 12.5@113 on 18psi launching at 2200rpm on 2 year old tyres and a full tank on a 30 degree day. 11.90 possible on slicks and transbrake. Anything is possible but at the best I'd say 10.9 but if its bresciani tuned he'd be closer to 11.7 just my 2 cents. cheers
