January 14, 200818 yr #1 Hey people. Ive had my XR6T for about 9 months now (6months with the flash tuner). I love my car and it goes like the clappers and I care for it a lot but after reading a few threads on the Generic Capa tunes I'm getting a little worried on how unhealthy my car could be running. My 03 BA XR6T 4sp has done 18000k's. I have got a Herrod stainless steel twin 2.5" cat back exhaust, Capa larger front mount intercooler, K&N panel filter with SS inductions CAI. When I run the 8psi tune(95octane) I'm running 11-12 psi and when I'm run the 10psi (98octane) I'm getting 13-15psi depending on if it hot or cool. Is this normal for what mods I've got. I haven't had it checked out by a tuner becausw there really isn't anywhere nearby that can help me. Closest place is Townsville QLD but I haven't heard good things so my next options are cairns or Mackay. So I will be traveling to cairns next month to get this sorted and get my valve springs upgraded. I'm just curious am I just paranoid or just lucky, any thoughts appreciated.
January 14, 200818 yr #2 my car is stock but it did the same thing with the geniric tunes. Its called overboost and its not real healthy. I've flash mine back to stock til I can get a custom tune. Best to get it on a dyno if ya can.Someone more technical might be along shorthly to explained it better.Hope this helps a bit.
January 14, 200818 yr #3 mine did the same, with twin 2.5" exhaust, wog cooler and valve springs done... the 8psi tune used to hit 14psi and the 10psi tune hit 16psi, so I flashed it back to stock until I got a custom tune done.
January 14, 200818 yr #4 I'd do the same and flash it back to stock. when you're in comming up to cairns give Cape York Automotive a call (sorry havent got their number atm) they'll be able to help ya out.

January 15, 200818 yr #7 Try and chase down Blupower, he has a pretty good reputation, and I believe he is up your neck of the woods.ScottyI think KS means Blueboost. He is located in Mackay. Collinsville Automotive if my memory serves me correctly
