yeh both are ideal... but torque makes a great streeter since im not revving its tits off on a daily basis to use the rwkw but im always using the torque... and torque will get me outta the hole at the drags but then again rwkw will keep me there... all fun and games either way I cant wait to just have somewhere I can use the new power

yeh because the rwkw on the same dyno run shows low and the torque high... makes sense :S

can sound whatever you want worm because the car feels fast.. and im making my torque than some people with well over 300rwkw running more boost so the pulling power is more than there... as I said ill see the mph and time at the drags... cheers everyone for the comments

yeh see I wanted reliabilty and safe from the word go so I went for a good cooler which set back my time of the tune and injectors a month or two :( I wish I had got joes advice as I would have got a full exhaust then tune and I would have been happy not to do anymore to the car... nar im feeling like I missing an essential mod as not knowing the factory exhaust is restrictive in a close loop tune. I would have liked to get more power with still a safe tune and is my own fault for thinking most stuff I read on forums is just how it is lol... never heard of close loop and open loop tunes so hey... something I have learnt... but still impressed of how ot drive on the road hows it feel with 300rwkw, hows your torque figure and curve mate?

I nearly bought a monza lol phew..

as I said he knows his stuff... obviously tuners dont tune with the safety features from ford as there seems to be alot of people just wanting those rwkw figures... I love having this much torque knowing that joes done it properly. Anyways lets see what the 1/4 mile says... thanks for that post too... clears things up a bit

webby324 is it low for 10psi though.. 270rwkw? bionicxr6t05 that sounds ok... sounds on the mark what do you have done?

worm I cant comment too much on the reason of the psi tuning as im not a tuner im just passing on what im told.... as for my mates car he is running 19psi with only 320rwkw and dunno where it was tuned but mine pulls harder that's all I can really say ? too many variables, what do you think my time and mph will be worm?

yeh ive seen heaps of people have there tunes with over 300rwkw with stock coolers or monzas which is why I thought it was a sure thing, but when I told him I have plazmaman cooler, k&n filter, high flow cat, 60lbs squirters he said should get around 260rwkw... I myself was shocked a little after reading others figures but turns out the factory computer showed it would lean out and was changing timing to something unsafe when more boost was added, he said if tuned in an open loop circuit which is what most tuners do I could have the numbers on a piece of paper and an unsafe tune, and he could change it but bypasses the factory safety features ford have programmed. So if I change to a 4" dump with my cat and a single 3.5" system the car will boost up itself to around 14psi and then can tune it to that. Made alot of sense when HE was explaining it lol.... but I think people might be forgetting that the figure isnt low for 10psi. I will be going to to eastern creek soon so what do people think ill run with my low power figure?

haha nar dont need to justify the power, its there. yeh he said if I went to another shop I could have had the rwkw numbers on paper. He said he can tune up to 15psi with stock actuator not a problem. As for why it didnt like it at 12lb is something to do with the way he tunes, he said the car wont go past 10psi without changing exhaust to do it safely, I mean yeh henz a catback might be enough but then im only left with changing the dump so id probably do both

well after seeing how joe tunes ive learnt rwkw is a wank factor really lol with the jump from 440nm to 711nm at the wheels it is now REALLY fast. He tunes in closed loop circuit so rather than just adding boost to the car to get power he uses all fhe factory safety parameters in the ecu from ford to ensure a safe tune. He did add 12lb to it but the car didnt like it and started to lose power. Theres another thing ill point out to is change your whole exhaust not just cat the whole system is restrictive. In order to run say 13-15 psi the exhaust needs to be changed to do it safely. Joe really knows his stuff and is one of the nicest guys ive meant.... and 270rwkw @10psi im happy with because I know my mates gunna be upset when I own his 320rwkw turbo, mines noticably faster Anyways very very happy with how the car goes, cheers.

well car pulled 270rwkw and 711nm @ wheels and on 10psi

yeh I think that's what joe said it would be roughly but every cars different, I drop her off tonight to get the exhaust done so pretty pumped about that lol... hows the xrskyline gettin along?

thumbs up for the finneys! yeh well since I had to remover the oem snorkel to fit the cold side piping im going to cut a hole into the front of the box as its still sucking from the hole on the left facing the hot engine bay :(

yeh dillz just standard intake with k&n filter
