Bloody flying mate, couldn't believe your MPH when I saw that first run. Definitely suggests around 480-500rwkw based on Sydney comparisons. Well done!

I think he is referring to OP's specific setup, not the restriction on the injectors themselves. 1000cc are good for around 500rwkw on E85, more on 98. Dependant on what lambda etc the tuner wishes to tune to.

Yes, arguably the worst rep in Sydney, maybe even Australia. Commonly known amongst the ford community as "Pingtune". I'm sure a few people will chime in with their experiences.

Maybe

I'm pretty sure Intune customers get re-tunes weekly don't they? Or is that engine builds?

True ^. But he's getting it tuned at CMS, so they will want more than 1000s for 500+ on E85

I go to CMS too and I know Joe has told me before 500 is about the limit for 1000s. Just be prepared if it falls a bit short of the number you want if it's deemed to be unsafe. I went 1500s when I was shooting for 500+, I also have the 6466.

ADV5, but be prepared for them costing at least double the Koya's I imagine

I have 2x044s, plaz surge and walbro 460 intank but if I had to do it all again now I'd go for one of the KPM 1500hp intank setups. Plug and play, no noise, no smell, no surge. If you are going to run E85 and want it to be reliable you will probably need to upgrade all fuel lines between end of steel lines and rail/reg, an upgraded fuel reg and rail as well, although some people get away without them. Expect to run into issues with E85 and the 044s in the long run too, rated for 500 hours but heard of quite a few goong recently including one of mine (may not be to do with E85 though I'm not sure) My advice is spend the bit extra, go with the KPM intank, you will thank yourself in the future. Glad to see you're on top of engine and box, although aren't there a lot of issues with the drive shafts and rest of driveline in the territories with power? Again not sure on that one, someone will chime in

If you're aiming for for 500awkw you're in for an unpleasant suprise if you haven't touched engine, gearbox or driveline... Also no, 2x 044s would be needed, but if you haven't already purchased an 044 there are better options out there these days.

I have a Gibson 1000hp shaft and Superpro HD bushes, no issues. Although NVH may just be drowned out by the rest of the setup haha.

Hey Doobs... There you go! I already picked up a set

What's the image quality like Rab? Will it do 1080p?

8.5 +30 front 9.5 +38 rear will be good doobs. Looking at the Rays Gram Lights 57C6s now on Perfect Run, opinions on them? About 9.2kg each apparently

Yeah those GT5s were the ones I was looking at when questioning 10 inch rears, gonna fill out a caliper sheet and double check on brembos anyway. Doobs those T7Rs in our size are a 8+ week order from Japan I believe

Picked up a playseat and a Thrustmaster TH8A shifter which is miles ahead of the G27 shifter - all metal and with adjustable resistance, actually feels like a proper gearbox rather than being able to shift with your pinky of the G27 one. Game is awesome - if anyone else has it add me on steam "TommyTwoHanks" and we'll have a game.

Nah FIXR7 was only looking at 10" because that rim didn't come in 9.5. I just want wide rubber tbh. Thanks I'll look into those Koyas!

PC version will always be miles ahead in terms of visuals if you have the hardware for it.

Ahh I see ^ Must only be with 19/20 inch that trick works

I can use a spacer to inset the control blade rather than a hub spacer so I don't lose any guard clearance. It's on Shockworks coilovers, haven't set everything up yet so height will depend on wheels, not an issue

Just messaged JDMconcepts who are the distributor for SSR and all those offsets for f01 and v01 are discontinued :( Back to making the GT5s fit... 18x10+38.. who can give me their wheel specs and how much clearance they have to guard/strut? Can space the blade in but can't roll the guards much in FG apparently..

You Sir, are a legend. Now my picks are between: SSR GTF01: 18x8.5 + 32 front 18x9.5 + 40 rear ~$870 per wheel SSR GTV01: 18x8.5 +30 front 18x9.5 +35 rear ~$470 Having trouble finding the reason for the difference in cost on the mobile site

Not real keen on copies. The problem isn't that I don't want to pay for them FIXR7. I was willing to fork out over 3k for TE37s but I've triple checked every varient on the Ray's site and none of them will work both front and rear. Keep in mind I'm set on running 275 R888s on the rear, have a lot of power I need to get down. I'm all for suggestions of other wheels if anyone has them? I've looked at Varrstoens, Rays, Lensos (could go D1R but I had them last time), not too keen on the RPF1 enkei. I like the look of rims like the TE37s and D1Rs etc, 5/6spoke with some dish is always nice.

Yeah I'm planning on running a 275 R888 which I'm told are a big tyre... Why can't good looking jap wheels come in the right offsets for our Aussie falcons? :(

Thanks for the info mate. So my rims will sit 5mm further in from guard, and 5mm closer to suspension strut. I'm thinking of using a control blade inset spacer like a few others have done to give more inner clearance. With mine being 5mm in from the gaurds compared to yours, would I need to roll with 275s?
