Nizpro exhaust is excellent. Built tough, good quality can make over 1000hp, and I’v never had any problems with remove/replace or fitting it up. Clamps are good, just nick them up from time to time. Good system!

not me champ, I sold my low km G2 GTX to a mate.

loose plugs will cause this too.

mate I have a modified reg that bolts to the OEM rail. KPM sell them as part of their 460 intank kit which I used to run perfect for your 460 setup. Looks stock. Im runing a FPR 1200 now. Yes you will need to upgrade your wiring and run a good quality relay and fuse setup. $50 PM me if you’re interested.

A 9.5 should be achievable. 900HP @ 4175lbs = about 9.6 Fully built drive line and a Haltech on board that Dion will setup. Not rushing out there in a hurry. Just enjoy it on the street for now (carefully)

A few pics of my new motor. Hope to reset the Adelaide record with this engine using a low mount. GTX3584RS - DMP CAM package and a few other goodies too.

100% stock box best time 10.88 with a lift off. with stock box it wouldn’t go any faster.

135mph around 500rwkw stock ZF (on its last legs) full billet rear end, diff hat, 1400hp shafts, trutrak

Going great, heaps of drag launches too. Done 1.58 in the 60 foot fully loaded up. yeah just buy one

See the turbo cut out too? They do that to help with turbo spool, it makes more power sooner and believe it or not it also helps with fuel economy. Good pic up!

Mate, to embark on the type of build that you have is a testament the the thick skin that you obviously have! A couple trolls aren't going to faze you!

Im not sure of the LPH rating of the current pumps in the KPM1500 kit but I know they use to run 2x PN#207 Walbros. These pumps relief valves will kick in at around 80odd psi and start to nose dive pretty quickly. So If they are these pumps I cant imagine they would pressurise the rail, even with both running at the same time. As both pumps would each find the same restriction point and the back pressure would activate the internal relief valve. In more recent times KPM have changed these pumps to a different brand if my memory serves me correctly but I don’t remember which brand they swapped out to, and can’t look at the new pumps flow rates. Even though you may be able to set and hold a base pressure doesn’t mean the diaphragm is capable of constantly holding back persistant pumps and could fail over time. At least that's my understanding of it. FPRs need to be able to hold back the pressure that each pump can deliver in optimal free flowing situations. Over specing fuel lines can have a negative effect on a setup too. Just my opions mate on my learnings and findings. Great project mate well done!

  Why are you feeling the need to add negativity to the situation?   I mean in the bigger picture of this fellas build who are?    How are your comments relevant here?   Guys had a reg fail, his posting the findings on a public forum and doing a service to other people.    You almost sound,   jealous!

Chin up buddy, you’ll sort it. Is there any chance that your fuel pumps/system setup over pressurised the rail. Highly unlikely with -10 setup but Im just curios if this is technically possible with the pumps your running. Are they staged ?

What type of fuel pumps are you running and how many of them? LPH @ 12v @ 0psi = maximum flow rate of the fuel pump per hour. Do they have a relief valve installed in them? Sorry I have read the thread but don't remember the fuel system setup. FUELAB® 555 and 575 Series Fuel Pressure Regulators are true precision instruments designed to regulate fuel. These units feature an advanced poppet design for smooth regulating capability. We’ve also incorporated a no-creep soft seat that’s methanol and E85 compatible. We’ve also incorporated a no-creep soft seat that’s methanol and E85 compatible. Adjustable in ranges from 1-3 PSI up to 25-65 PSI. FUELAB® 585 Series Fuel Pressure Regulators expand on the line of Blocking Style (non-bypass) Regulators like our 555 and 575 Series, in a Traditional 4-Port Package. The main seat assembly can be quickly exchanged in case of seat damage, such as debris. The seat assembly can be taken apart further to enable o-ring replacement of the Soft-Seat design. With Dual -10AN Inlet Ports and Four -6AN Outlet Ports (port spread allows for -8AN line size) gives the regulator ability for extremely high flow rates with a flattened curve for pressure stability through its use of a 1.5 inch diaphragm assembly. To me this section " The main seat assembly can be quickly exchanged in case of seat damage, such as debris. " sound like a cop out and something that this company has seen and faced before. How often do good regs go bad? That reg has failed pure and simple. Your set up is impeccable and the likely hood of you encountering debris is in my opinion unlikely, considering the attention to detail of this build!

Yeah its failed all right. What pressure is that regulator rated too and what did you have base pressure set to? Amazing commitment to this project mate. Respect!

Im pretty sure this is correct too. In line what what I have also heard! Nice one!

Aaronn is 100% correct!

hp26 vs 6r80 are two very different boxs both in design, manufacturing process and capabilities. Firstly its all in the tune. Both boxs in stock form can be tuned to a reasonable leave of performance. The ZFs weakest hard part is the imput shafts, the 6r80 is the planatery gear carrier. For the larger sized components that make up the 6r80 they are let down by the quality in the metal used. Ones made in Germany the other in America. The Americans have run deep into the 9s on 100% stock 6r80s but they do eventually break. Stock ZFs will go 10s with out to many problems, but again they do break. My stock box went 10.86 @135 with 525rwkw. Full lift off on the 3 4 upshift was required and at those power levels the boxs just aren’t in a happy place. I have chosen to go down the 6r80 option for many reasons but a fully built ZF tuned correctly is fairly bulletproof. Even if a stock box holds together as in doesn’t break, the clutches hate there life in stock form. If the ZF or 6r80 are tuned to shift super fast they will break the major components that aren’t billet. You can spend anywhere from 5000 to 11000 dollars on one if these boxs. I have managed to get a good warranty in righting for my 6r80 box so Im happy to give it a go for what its cost me. Dont buy a box from anyone that is not willing to provide you with the tuning data for the box they build. I know Nizpro wont do this and wont provide any warranty if they dont tune the box. Hope this helps some. sorry for all the typos I rushed that post

Red ones a turbo motor, BF Pretty obvious Cleary they wanted to keep the turbo so they shipped it with NA manifold. Has eveything a turbo motor would apart from the turbo and associated plumbing! barra the world !

lol pussy!

I don't really see the problem with jumping onboard early. The Haltech Ford plug in ECU uses the ESP software and is based on the Elite 2500. Both of which have been out for ages. However you can't just get anyone to setup and tune this ECU. You really do need a top tuner to get the best out of it. Or you can learn to do it yourself, which I wont be doing.

BA only has one knock sensor towards the back under the intake manifold (on the block). BF has two, one at the front and the back!

A BA turbo would really benefit from this ecu. You can even add an extra nock sensor too and get full VCT control with very little effort.

Service has been great from Haltech. Smart guys and super keen to talk with you I think with this type of setup you need to understand what you want out of it and ensure your tuner can spend the time to set it up correctly. I haven't got a final price on the items I've ordered but the list so far is as per below. Flex fuel sensor 3 port boost solenoid wide band O2 sensor I'm super keen in the protection side of things, such as over boost protection, fuel pressure and lean condition protection. Boost by gear is going to make the car so much faster on the street and at the strip! They have been testing this ECU on 3 development cars for 3 years so they assure me the bugs have been ironed out. Unfortunately we have had delays with the new forged con-rods that Dion wants for his new builds based on findings from his race motor, so my engine has taken longer then expected. The rest of the car is ready to go.
