    I don't doubt that rocky has good tuners... it's just that dave's better lol. I had a problem with my car when we first tuned it, it didn't want to sit on less than 16 psi, and wouldn't go over 16 psi. So we had it tuned to 16 psi with 330rwkw, then 16 psi with 360rwkw. my new actuator arrived this week, so, once we get the turbo sorted and the actuator fitted, I'll race up to mackay and get it re-tuned.

  4. I got an iphone... I se it for everything, and cos it sincs with my wifi, I use it more than my pc. I'm considering an ipad too, but im waiting till tax time.

    cheers bonjaz... hangin for this actuator to arrive. then it's tune time lol.
  9. I like the fact they were using the wrong fire extinguishers for the first 2 minutes! f*ck that!
  10. I agree, warranty? maybe even a sand back and good polish.
  11. yeah you're correct, I just looked at mine and it seems to be a larger sweeping 90 bend.

    plazmaman do a good replacement for the factory unit. I was running 330rwkw no dramas with it and it's rated to hit the 350rwkw mark.
  14. Process west have been using this for their stage 3 kit for a few years now and guys are punching out 550rwkw no probs. Kent (DUS12) is one of these guys.

    This is wierd replying to my own post... Here's where I'm at... I fitted up my new process west stage 3 kit yesterday (it's their new one with a 4 inch cross sectional under headlight silicon pipe), along with the process west race air box. f*ck me the induction noise and turbo spool sound like I'm running a new bigger turbo! Awaiting my new 14psi actuator to arrive, then we'll fit that up and mod the rear housing on the turbo. Have made a deal with the wife to wait till tax time to 'finish off the car', so at the end of july, start of august I'll finally get my surge tank, and maybe some valve springs. We made the decision today to go for a 95tune, a 98tune and get a straight piece of pipe for the cat & to use it for a dyno queen tune running no filter and a toluline mixer maybe 25-33%. Can't wait.
  16. yeah I'm gonna get me one too, I had a the GFB BOV with their longer thinner trumpet that whistled a bit like this, but it's not the same. Sorry Dillz.
  17. $2800 for an FG F6 short motor from Ford. The cheapest rebuild kit I could find was by spool imports. Forged pistons and rods, and acl race bearings and head bolts.
  18. this pic came out about 12 months ago and did the rounds. It's fine as a mondeo substitute, but it's no falcon, and dare I say it the xr5 mondeo would probably sh*t al over it too.
  19. buff... you are a sick man, you should get yourself checked, lol.
  20. Am I the only one here reading all this, who watched Tony Abbott on tv say that he was against the super profits tax that labour had, but when approached about their alternative, said LNP were going to introduce a 'different new' large scale tax? I'm a miner in central queensland, I've been a contractor for the past 6 years, and started a permanent job underground on monday, it took 4 years of job applications & rejection, before I got this job... I really don't care who gets in as long as, I have a job, I don't have to sign a contract (I.e. can work to an EBA), and who ever gets in funnels some of the mining money back into the areas that provide it! I can't ride my motorbike the 60km's to work cos the road to and from (and around our town is below par), yes, it is state responsibilty as it's a highway. The metro areas get it all, billion dollar tunnels & bridges, and we provide those billions, yet we get stuff all. This seems to be the general consensus in out 20,000 person town. One thing I think we probably all could agree on is that no matter who gets in, in another 4 years time we'll be having the same conversation, only with different names. Oh, and if you had to "do" a female politician, who would it be lol. (just a bit of humour to lighten the mood)
  21. I have 3 kids under 5 in tha back seat of my XR6T... I went to Supercheap auto and got a seat cover for the back, then, got one of their 'throw overs for the back seat that has a plastic underside. It keeps all spills atc away from the rear seats, and I pull it out once a week for a wash. Kids can only make a mess with what you give them. yeah there will be a little spill here and there, but nothing that will destroy your rear seat. My only advice is (I know you bundle of joy is still in the oven) a Nintendo DS is more expensive than a colouring book and pencils... BUT a Nintendo DS can't draw all over the inside of your car, lol. (I found this out the hard way, lol)
  22. HURRY UP!!!! dead keen for some new style ones!
  23. I'm sure this guy could stand on his head! I wanna see an exploded turbo... as in one that has FAILED!

    cheers. I know for 100% that they have a different part number, and that they run a different bush, but that's it. I even sent an e-mail to argo to see if they could yell me if they did them for fpv. No reply yet. Fingers crossed. I'd live to be runnin in the mid to low 400's with no reliability issues.
