guys/gals, dont use ANYTHING less than 98, it may cost more but I am doing like 12's in town and giving it, it saves you money, heaps more power, less fuel consumption, less stress on the motor, I can cruise at 9.2 for a turbo that hits 100kmh in near 5.5 secs that is amazing for fuel.... A car is your second biggest investment. don't buy cheap fuel......... cause at the end of the day, less performance makes more fuel....

Not sure, I know he has a computer that he plugs into but that only gives him the info of error"s . "I think",I would get him to put all the bits on , ie cooler Then take it to the performance center for a tune and dyno and upgrade.

Have not have or had issues at all and I live in the tropics, hot hot hot everyday.... I put mine on air-in, and semi auto full bore and let it do its own job, then I put it in auto or leave it there, my fuel goes up 1.2 or 2.2 on idle, and the idle does not move from 700-900rpm My aircon is on everyday..

Defiantly go buy a FG 2012 turbo, get the luxury pack, but stay clear of the leather trim, due to them not being heated in winter and burn you like an egg in summer go the cloth trim, I got the dark trim and it looks great and I took a 2008 FPV 302 for a spin and the turbo just is so much more "see ya later" so quick in response, give it a tune and cooler and geez, its sucks you in the seat just standard so I would hate to think what a dyno tune would do....... Unless you’re willing to fork out 75k and have troubles keeping it on the road, go the FG turbo..100kmh in 5.5 sec stock

ps I dont want it raging fast and use more fuel, just want to keep it as cool as possible

I am not to mechanically minded but I live in the tropics and it is Hot everyday...EVERYDAY, So I am obviously not getting my full potential out of my car with the Turbo. What would you suggest I do.. ie What do I need to make it cool, I have a great mehcanic, but I want to hear what you guys think.. Much Thanks
