  1. how much fitted if you dont mind me asking? RRP if you got it done cheaper. Cheers I paid 1095 for mine fitted. Awsome clutch, the pedal feels lighter then the stock clutch Might have to look at this option as well......

    No. You flash your map straight back in.
  3. So. Ian finally let the missus drive the car and look what happens.
  4. That is one beautiful power graph Craig. That is your race tune/setup? Do you have one for your everyday tune/setup? On topic, I have only ever had the edit so I cannot contribute to the comparison, but await with interest Dingah's fedback from the edit only solution.
  5. Did they provide a rough idea of how many NM of torque it will hold? It's not the RWKW per se that will be an issue. It the level of twist.
  6. Go the cooler and retune if that's reaching the top end of the power you are looking for. If chasing more, get injectors etc ready to install and do all the changes at once. That way you will not be shelling out for tuning with every change. On the other issue, I stated this before on a number of occasions: It should be mandatory to flash the car back to stock for a day every 2 - 3 weeks. That way, you keep some perspective on the increased performance of the car. Like most of you, the power now feels, er, normal.
  7. The first issue sounds like boost fluctuation. I'll leave that to the tuning experts. It can, however, be minimised/eliminated by a custom tune. The second sounds like an increase in the intake charge temps has caused the computer to change timing/fuel etc. Now this is a good thing. The software is basically protecting your engine. Pain in the arse, absolutely. It will only get worse between now and the hottest summer days. The best way to combat this is to get a decent larger capacity intercooler. There are a number of good options detailed on this site.
  8. Tuned by the clutch f*cking, gearbox munching Wog. Loving every drive.
  9. Bugster, The mad man tune will kill the box. The time taken for this to occur will depend mainly on driving style and circumstances. I agree with you that you should get the tune since Nick is already working on the car, but ask for more conservative tunes in the other slots. What will happen though, is that you'll enjoy the tough tune's drivability so much, that you'll rarely take it out. And that's where the gearbox issue comes in......
  10. It wouldn't surprise anyone once you've seen Turtle drive. You see, turtle doesn't have an accelarator in his ute. It's an on/off switch. Either fully engaged or fully off. Impressive usage though.
  11. Exactly. Good to see enthusiasts from both camps getting together for a bit of fun. How about organising somthing like this for Brisbane??
  12. try flash it back in first and see if it does it again if not great if so see if after half an hour or so the air comes to life? seen it twice in qld? sixrt + turtle33 I had this once when flashing in a particular map. All was OK the next time I flashed the same map back in. Try the 10PSI map again before sending the flashbox back to CAPA.
  13. Can't wait to hear your car run and check out the new dump pipe option.

    Flash

    I've had a Wog Tune in mine since around August. So speaking from experience I can say - Spot on Dingah!

    Flash

    Enjoy the power and start putting pennies away for the new tyres. Something grippier than the OEM jobbies will help get the power down.
  16. You need to take you flashbox to an edit dealer, who can clear the F slot for you.
  17. He probably was. The fuse can be short during the early years....
  18. Look forward to the x-rated version With happy snaps! Oops, leave those for the other site.
  19. So have I bjc, and patience is a virtue I don't have!!!! A week seems like such a long time! A week is worth the wait. It'll also give you time to: - Gap the plugs - Install a larger intercooler - Get to know a tyre supplier really well. You'll need mates rates soon enough.

    Much better bet.
  21. Sound like a good time had by all. Enjoy your new found power guys. Let's us know how the car feels now.
  22. That is correct. You are running higher boost levels and greater timing advance in these tunes, so a higher octane fuel will ensure that the mix goes bang when it's supposed to.
  23. Good choice. She is beautiful.
  24. It is possible but I wouldn't recommend it. Basically, when you first download the edit, it uploads you factory tune into the box and locks it in. You can have the F slot cleared, but only 5 times before the box has to go back to CAPA/US to be cleared. Therefore, every time you have the F slot cleared, the box looses "a life". Most people flash the factory tune back in before a service, if they still have standard injectors in place.
  25. man I copped it bad Eagle One 20/20 window cleaner.. might have to give them a ring and find out whats in the bloody thing You spry it on WINDSCREEN, not up your nose....
