It'll be good to have this project finally completed. I have a BA xr6t to tune this weekend, pretty much stock with a front mount, so probably the last driveway tune I'll be doing.

Otherway round over here pretty sure. Might be something to do with the scorching temps you get there and concrete setting too quickly and cracking?

Looks great though, wish I could come round for a dyno run in my barra.

It's a total of 8m x 15m with the walls at 3.3m and the highest point of the roof at 4.37m.

This one is even more hectic than the current one that makes 310rwkw, hopefully it'll pick up another 20 but we'll see lol. If anyone wants the VCM16 I'll have it for sale shortly, can also install and tune it too Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/97278-puffwagons-dyno-tuning-adventures/page/14/#findComment-1725819 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tools will arrive next week and I can get to tuning again lol. I think it will be very close in the tune anyway for reasons. Gonna head to roll racing and actually go this time, should do some chopping, at least the commodores anyway. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/97278-puffwagons-dyno-tuning-adventures/page/14/#findComment-1725831 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puffwagon Gold Donating Members 16,348 Member For: 10y 5m 4d Gender: Not Telling Posted 27/03/25 11:16 AM Author Share Posted 27/03/25 11:16 AM Fitted my hectic cam today and dialled in the idle fuel a bit. While I was half way through the install I had a phone call and when I was nearly done working on the car, I couldn't remember if I torqued the cam gear bolts. Pulled it back apart to check, I had done it, 2 hours later I was back to where I was lol. Better safe than sorry but fark that for a waste of time. Still a couple of weeks till I can use the shed, so I was out there in full sun, bent over cos the car is low. Dyno tomorrow, hopefully it all works good and does what is supposed to.
