Hummm you’re going to need more than that 50mm Gate, Trust me ! Swop it straight up for a 60mm 50mm Gates on a 6 Boost are terrible on anything bigger than a 82 even with good aftermarket boost controllers.

Hey good result mate ! Torque Derived is the most accurate calculation of wheel torque hence it always being lower that all typical Torque figures 316rwkw @ 16 psi of peak boost for 675NM is pretty much bang on a stage 2 package results I literally just finished a FG mk2 XR6T A6 stage 2 package on the chassis dyno and with 275/20* tyres/wheels I finished up at 305rwkw @ 14.2psi peak boost and 658NM. Obviously the key to performance is always the highest Torque figure for as long as possible ( and as flat as possible too ) with the least amount of boost to do it

I’ve used this and other variations of this beforehand yes as the factory replacement plastic piece comes as a full unit assembly with the 3 attached hoses and at a considerable amount more

Twin -8 feed rail is a good step and yes a bigger return fitting into the top of the pot will more than likely need to happen, Go for a FPR2000 mate then you should be mustard

Solid effort getting two 525’s in that pot lol, something to be mindful of is most injectors have an absolute maximum upper pressure capacity of 100psi This is why you’ll see most big banger builds target 40psi base pressure vs out standard 58.5psi If you’re running excessive base 65-70 plus 30psi ontop you’re on the cusp of the injector not opening against head pressure, heating the windings up as the pressure it’s fighting is growing all leading to injectors wearing potentially out of balance and a heavily miss matched set in your built engine delivering what we assume is a balanced load of fuel but in fact isn’t. one of the reasons we stay away from 100% IDC in any case not to mention that the injector will heavily go non linear after 100psi Just be careful bro, FPR800’s are only good for a maximum of a single walbro 255 and one Pierberg as it’s rating is 800hp of flow dumping capacity and as intended the 525 is at least a 800hp pump on 98 fuel alone

Sounds like a worn Diff Bush Pen.Is

She’s a beauty mate !

Me Rikey

I’m probably a bit too OCD and picky with tuning and yes not all cars play the game and not all mods work as well as others but when there is laziness at play or an intention to speed up the process for a number on a sheet it pisses me off. Is there a right and wrong with tuning, short answer is no as you can do whatever you want but the long answer is “Yes” as the target should always be Torque generation over power with an on paper skill attached to not only go well but look right. Then obviously the vehicle must perform, behave and last as we have seen above wasn’t very well delivered in the longevity aspect. IF you want to send it over on a truck I would be more than happy to tune it all for you Now,This is also the same for what you’re pondering now RE: E85 tune Yes the Walbro 460 comes in High and Low pressure variants ( so common for workshops to fit low pressure units and have flow issues ) A walbro 460 LPU with a target of 12.0 and clean supply of 13.8V with a wiring upgrade and relay option and new filter will supply enough fuel for the 440/450 area. A HPU can actually do a bit better as it’s the boost on top of the units rated pressure that tips things over ( 58.5psi base plus say 20psi plus ontop and a 87psi rated unit ) But the HPU is 112psi rated Going the pump only on a B series is risky unless you know the situation as surge is a real thing on the B series fuel tank. That also said if you are aware, keep the tank full you can get away with playing with fire lol. As a guide I fit every single customer car with a Surge tank, twin feed rail, aftermarket FPR, wiring kit and only then we play with E85 ( B series or F doesn’t matter ). IF you keep to a realistic power goal, upgrade the wiring and relay and be aware when you sink the boot you could have most of your cake and eat it too with what you’ve got. The Green Top will handle 400rwkw comfortable and so should your mods ( intercooler questionable but E85 will help it all ) so there should be no reason you can’t end up around 400’s on 18 psi which is all very acceptable

It’s obviously my pretty well informed opinion as you know I’m fairly competent on tuning the turbo falcon platform. It's just some of those easy things to get right makes for a why aren’t they right situation. Things like 15kmh/per second on a sub 280 car means it’s not actually going through the paces of what that vehicle will actually travel at for the power. Spiro is a very competent Turbo falcon tuner in NSW. So is Joe at CMS... Whatever happened did happen and off day’s come up. Very unfortunately at your expense. Joe @ Precision Racing is a great Turbo falcon tuner also and in NSW Empire Mechanical and Racing with Omar at the Keyboard are bloody good also You’re actually spoiled for choice of very competent tuners

Look.... There’s many ways to tune a falcon but there is some pretty hard fast rules and fueling target above this yellow line is a bit of a red flag. AFR 12.0 and under ( As low as 11.0 if it must ) is pretty much the golden rule for cylinder events on 98 octane fuel. 12.0 as a maximum is the last happy place cylinder events happen on 98 fuel especially when this is what’s being recorded at the tailpipe. It’s ok to see falling AFR’s with boost generation gaining but in this graph (364.9kw) it’s above 12.0 for 3/4 of the pull. Yes we can sometimes lean it put to gain spool rate but considering what’s gone on with your first engine I would go with a very “Proven” workshop ! these were within the most recent 10 posts 😕 Just sayn ....

Quite a few of them in Adelaide are open space which doesn’t guarantee people won’t touch it and the enclosed ones are fairly steep as every start up Drop shipping company and his Dog want them and pay big for them, it’s a tuff one sometimes

Hummm Dunno mate Go see Spiro @Autotech

I managed to help Graeam out for a month or two whilst I completed his last round of mods by keeping his beast safe and sound but I think he might need a bit more of a semi permanent place to store his car whilst he’s in Adelaide. There was a place lined up but it sounds like it fell through and obviously a vehicle like this needs to be stored safely so not every spare carpark will do type thing. Apart from the big companies and storage places it might take someone to see this post and maybe put their hand up 🙋

Nah I’m just like if a round thing can boil water and cook a steak at what point does it stop and do we just get them then. You know, if it aint broke don’t fix it type thing, but oh no being a bunch of coins down will somehow magically make the boiling point of water drop from 100*c to 95*c and get me my Pasta quicker lol

Fun Fact .... it’s doing it right now in Pop’s Thread Will not post, goes to the top of last page , Iphone 11 Pro on Safari

Yeh it has, not only have I mentioned the txt editor box freaking out ol mate above did to you a few months back The main point was the fact this forum always has to run upgrades constantly which completely throw out the typical layouts, up grade ya back end all you want but the front end should be left alone ! Change is whatevas but when it’s for worse not better why bother ? Windows 10 anyone, Nope 👎

Sooo I blame you for the Windows 95 operating system in the latest Austech TouchPro - 79-2500IR Hexane Detector system ??? Haha it’s all Chit, Attach a frickn Ipad and be done with it Seriously old is good, Old is reliable, Old is recognisable, Old instills trust Keep it simple, it’s Always worked on all the big Forums ... This one has always struggled, no idea why

Seriously the AFF forum has had the same layout for like 15 years, zero issues ever

Why, Why dude Just leave it as it is, I’m not the biggest IT/Coder Genius but frick me in the bung hole just let it be as is unless I’m missing something here ?

Don’t do it, Fit the full F6 rear bumper as they look nice on XR’s but do not attempt the diffuser. I’ve got numerous customers with them and they just don’t fit right not matter what you try and do as they’re designed to be “Glued” on with Sikaflex

Do some long term R&D and see what it brings you, if you have the smart charge system on the TT you’ll know what it is when it happens When flashing tunes in if you get false or incomplete reads/writes and fails you’ll know why too it’s the little things

Century Battery's have a different coating on the plates which make it a more expensive choice off the batt and customers will tend to lead themselves thinking a more expensive battery is “Better” ... The fact is the smart charge on the later model falcons is somewhat confused by this output voltage the century delivers under charge and causes all sorts of Quirks within the system. I’ve rectified numerous ( not just me most falcon specific workshops have worked this out years ago also ) Gremlins,Quirks,rough idle, staling from just changing out a New Century for a New whatever else brand of size / capacity specified. As the Century battery ages it gets worse and worse yet will come up 100% perfect even on the latest expensive battery testers, There was an excessively bad batch from 2014-2017 where it was so obvious it was like shooting fish in a barrel to fix #JUSSAYN #whatwouldiknow #Centurybelongsinthebin

Put the Century battery back on the shelf and buy any other brand battery in the world and fit it Trust me !
