Actuall she calls me a nerd all the time. Think the point was more to do with "IT Engineering" being a valid term. We actually engineer alot of different thing An engineer is someone who practices the engineering profession; a professional practitioner of engineering; someone who uses scientific knowledge to solve practical problems and produce goods for society.

got the dyno done with the new tune. pritty much made the same power but smoother graph without the surging. Would the fact that it was hot and humid make that big of a difference? I can feel alot more power but the graph isnt showing it at all

Haha nah last night I was teaching her how to use it. And today we were both at work

hehe yep my fiance joind the forums I shouldnt get in trouble for being on here all the time now

Most people would be happy to share there connection if there getting there internet at 1/2 price. I know if some one asked me id do it for sure.

DO any of you neighbours have adsl? If the do you have 2 options. 1) The nice way. Offer to pay 1/2 the account costs and share the connection. 2) Steal there mail get there account details and close down there telephone line. Apply for ADSL Option 2 is more fun

Not big enough? what you want to mount a 5inch tacho in the centre do you ← Umm no. The holders I have seen only hold the tiny gauses. that's why mine is just screwed in, for now. I would like a proper pod just thought they were all really small

I would be interested I this. But I would prefer to have them located where the FPV gauges are. The current holders avalable are not big enough

that's pritty cool. I thought it was an actual car club event. Guy who organised it must have been stoked with the turnout

The late start was ok. Streets were pritty empty giving us a pritty free run. Was my first real cruze and I enjoyed my self im up for 1 a month. BTW my car was the silver XR6T with the ford sticker on the back

Did any one from here go to the Cruize saturday night? Was alot of fun until the cops at mundaring told us all to piss off

The hose was a radiator hose of a old toyota I think. Worked perfect for blocking the return end. and again for moving the BOV

Glad I could help.

Here Are 3 recordings with the air filter on BOV_with_filter_1.mp3BOV_with_filter_2.mp3BOV_with_filter_3.mp3 And 4 without the air filter on BOV_without_filter_1.mp3BOV_without_filter_2.mp3BOV_without_filter_3.mp3BOV_without_filter_4.mp3 Sorry if they sound crap but only had my mobile phone to recorde with

Here Are 3 recordings with the air filter on

yep running a 10psi tune altho on a cruze last night I noticed it was soimetimes in 3rd 4th and 5th gear it was doin closer to 15

I have a CAI and KnN Filter so I could always hear the stock setup. Right now its alittle louder from out side the car(not at all rice like), but I can hear it alitte more from inside the car. Sounds pritty good and not at all anoying like the really loud ones

I was looking at buying a new BOV but thought id tyr modifying the factory one first. I remember reading that the factory BOV also allows the engine to breath throught it so I put an air filter on it as well not really sure if its nessacery. Heres some pics And the blocked off plum back hole I am fully prepaired for all the negative comments this time. Think I should keep the filter on?? its probably killing some of the noise

Looks good hiddeous. We must exist on a higher level than everone else

will get another 1 or 2 later

I drilled 5 holes in the triangle piece. I took it slowly and no cracks. Whats wrong with the placement? It dosnt get in the way, and it in a easy to see place. I actually plan on making a better enclosure as I might be mounting a small LCD screen there for engine diagnostics readout. Its a car. Lots of holes have been drilled and will probably get afew more in its time.

Big networks on remote sites

I used to work for iiNet. And I can tell you they arnt that bad. You have to remember when it comes to installing a new line its telstra that does all the work. Any delays are 99% of the time telstras fault. Increase of prices are also due to telstra wholesale trying to put everyone out of the market so bigpond can take over

This one line will give you your answer to why you feel like you're being shot down. You asked the question and these are the opinions you have received. Personally I think your mod cheapens the look of the T and I wouldn't do it, however like others have said - it's your car and whatever you do to it and like it, well who gives a rats what anyone thinks. But if you ask what other people think, this can happen. Just like my choice of a HGAG, now that in itself kicks up dust with most, do I care?? NOPE, it's my choice and I'm happy with it. ← Fair enough. Sorry if my rant was a bit off.

I think your judgement of 'good' was made in error.. 'not good' or 'ugly' should replace your initial thought.. ← actually in this case being my car my definition of looks good count abit more. Why is every one on this forum so against any one doing anything that resembles any other car scenes? The guy that wanted stickers on his pannels got shot down. Any one that wants a louder blow off valve gets shot down. Any one that wants to put stripes or get a fpv body kit gets shot down. Fair enough if someone does something that is just plain old stupid, they deserve to get shot down. Look at what people do with an open mind, look at it for what it is and how its done not its crap because id prefer it done another way. I look that the small gauge pods and think nice and clean looks ok. but prefer a much bigger gauge. any way that's enought of my stupid rant.
