I have now purchased some 52lb Bosch Injectors, and will be installing them and having Clint retune shortly.

I really, really should be doing valve springs as well - one of those situations where the minister for war and finance is keeping an eye on things.

I noted your springs are doing well and holding big grunt, that's good to see.

Springs themselves are cheap, but there is a fair amount of labor involved in changing them. My wife sh*ts herself in this car as it is, and can't work out why I want more power.

If the injectors are the culprit and it makes more grunt, then the valve springs cry enough I am going to kick my own arse.

All good fun.

well had the same problem with my g6e at 300rwkw and went through it all found the broblems in the end 1= the throtle was only opening 75% 2=the cooler upgraded to a plazmaman 1200hp cooler 3= the stsndered turbo was not sucking in enough air so I changed to a gtx35r now running 406rwkw on 19psi and that's when my valve springs started playing up so I changed them and now they are running fine hope this helps

Hahaha, when in doubt chuck the little turbo out...

Back for another dyno run on the 22nd with the new injectors, see what we get. Getting front bar lip scratches repaired this week. Tossing up between Konis or just Monroe GT sport shocks, won't ever be a racecar - I just want it comfy and it to handle reasonably well. The king springs in it now have just about borked the stock shocks

Hey mate if these monroe's are the one's that are gold in colour they are sh#te, had them in my au lowered really harsh on bumps, I have billy's now which are supposed to be alittle harsh and the monroe's where way worse, also had them in my daughters tg gemini again very harsh and actually ask the supplier to swap for boges, which were alot better aswell.

Think hard about this one mate.

On another note who do you get to wheel align your car?

Havent had it in yet for a wheelo. But that's a bloody good question.

The Monroes arent the gold ones. They are the ones Bomber on these forums has installed.
