Hey Tab, I'm keen to chuck in $10.

Well, if the winnings are from your tickets, congrats! If they are from these tickets....I don't think $1.50 split per person is really going to help any of us? Maybe put it in the kitty for next time??

Ah…ok, so not safe in that sense….yeah I’ve heard that comment too, the one in regards to the rods and if you power in excess of 340rwkw you need to look at beefing up the bottom end. I’ve looked into it and the kits which Atomic offer seem to cater for this weakness. Like you mentioned earlier, I think throwing a rod really depends on how you drive the car and since you drive it pretty sensibly, like us, I think you’re safe. Same mate, I change my oil every 5000km’s or 6 months, depending on which comes first….don’t care about the cost, rather spend some extra $$$ and know the turbo is running well. So pretty much like any other tune shop, just when you make an upgrade and or downgrade another tune is required.. Thanks mate, I’ve never really been in a rush to get stuff done, well only before moving up to Tindal from Newcastle with the RAAF. Had a mechanic down there, a young guy, who mainly worked on fords but specialised in XR6 Turbo’s…he was awesome! Got a heap of stuff down before moving up to make sure it was done right. Your thoughts are very similar to mine, built for the track but also drivable on the roads. To be honest, if you pump money into a car to which you intend on holding on for a while….it’s not really wasted money. If you plan to only keep the car for a couple of years I can see how the thought of wasted money would come into the equation. I don’t plan on getting rid of the turbo at all, so all the money that goes into it is money well spent in my point of view…obviously money needs to be spent wise, otherwise that would be a waste of money. Yep big brakes would be great….like you, money is the problem but an overseas deployment is looking good soon, so some of wish list items might infact become reality. Do you have any other pics of your car?

Fancy that, my bro was 5/7 Recon and I’m in the RAAF based down in Tindal, might have to catch up one day and check out your ride the next time I’m up in darwin on a truck run. How do you mean your tune ain’t really a safe tune for BAII? You’ve gotta have a thrash here and there, I mean what’s the point of doing all the work without using it? Sounds like a good deal…it also sounds good that they only charge you pro-rata with your additional tunes. Speaking of which, do you need to take it in often to be retuned? Do you have many more pics of your ride, as what you’ve described is pretty much what I’m aiming for with my turbo. I haven’t really done a great deal with my Turbo, compared to majority of the guys on the forum. Mine is a 04 BA 1, so far I’ve added the following: Plazmaman stage 1 cold side piping, KLS intercooler, K&N air filter, Atomic Valve Springs, PWR expansion tank, Silicon hoses, GFB BOV, XForce Guages, And of course 19” XHP dirty dogs running Kumho 245/35/19. I got myself an X3 tuner and have been using the generic tunes without too many issues. Like you I don’t flog the sh*t out of it, but give it a squirt here and there. Before I get a custom tune I’d like to upgrade to a T56 gearbox and an XForce Quad exhaust, much the same as what you’ve described. A few extra items I’m looking at adding are Tein suspension, upgraded swaybars, superpro bushes, bigger rotors and bigger calipers. But that’s on the wish list and only if a few deals go well, just have to wait and see. Have you got anything else in the works for yours?

Hey Lynchy, Heading down to Adelaide next year....you don't happen to be based at Robbo are you?
