This is what you call a build.... Love it mate, as others have said, can't wait to see it complete..

Wow dude, I don't see this build ending anytime soon... As soon as something new or improved is out, you go for it hahhaa..

LOL@ the N/A boys... Every little bit helps...

If I was you, I'd go 60lb Dekkas or equivalent and a PW surge tank.. Don't have to change the STD pump and headroom into the 400rwkw's..

Im guessing autobarn repco etc...

Hey stupid question, but what are those covers that you put over your guards before you work on your car? I've seen like snap-on ones etc.. What are they called exactly? Good place to get some? Cheers Mike.

Happened to me... Cheap fix.

I might come buy for a look see..

Whiteline front and rear sway bars.. http://www.ebay.com....3#ht_500wt_1413 Not a bad price, if no one else bids..

With stupid..

Awesome results man, amazing what a good cooler can do I thought the UBP intakes are at there limit at 350rwkw? Maybe chuck a 4" in there and more/easier power could be had?

that's why we are here... Sounds like it popped on sunday, you can't really tell it happened until the next time you try and accelerate and theres nothing, you push harder, back off and woooshhh... Do you have aftermarket gear or standard gear? Either way could have been any of the piping.. But for me it was usually the one on the front of the turbo and once it happened on the hot side pipes. The std rubber joiner that connects to the throttle body is known to split and loose boost. I changed that and a couple of other joiners and my car over boosted.. They are very small things but also very important.. Front bar off would make it easier and it doesn't take long. Good luck mate.

Im on ~250rwkw and run about 13-14psi.. Std exhaust doesn't help, prob make ~300 on the same boost with one..

Sounds like all the symptoms of cooler hose has popped off... loose power and get a shhh instead of a flutter... How long has it been like this? Did it happen all of a sudden or slowly getting worse? Did you check all the piping???? Do you have a boost gauge u can see if your not making boost? It could also be a silicone hose or rubber joiner that has shat itself, might be in a hard to see place? Doubt its Vsprings and coil packs are cheap enough to change anyway even if to cancel them out as a problem..

Looks tuff man, def get some more pics up... The zorst will shut up a bit once the carbon sets in... Mine was fairly loud and now its a bit too quiet for my liking.. Sounds good on a cold start though..

It might max at 14psi drop to around 8-10 and hold it there due to the actuator.. Also what Adam said. But I agree it could be higher, but not all the cars are the same..

I've had my car tuned and lowered for years now.. Apart from the a few diff bushed needing to be replaced and a new set of shocks, nothing has 'fallen off' and I've got a BA with 150,000kms.

Because they aren't as sh*t as you seem to think they are..

Save for the auto mate..

Best thread ever!!!

Good idea, but I'm with Dillz, sly FTW

180 in a VS 190 in the T... was so effortless compared to the VS I thought why bother going any further... Really stupid thing to do.. Swore I would never 'max' out a car after the VS cause I had a full car and if we did crash, the shame on my family if we got killed.. The T I was by myself, but I'd never do it again.. Now prob max 120 ish overtaking..

Awesome engines... Are these things slower/faster than a 6T with the same power? I really can't see why you would buy a 6T when you could get one of these.. 350+ rwkw's for $1600 and the popo wouldn't know a thing..

Could someone shoot me an PM... I might rockup..

The rims are SOLD lol... put them on ebay this morning and 30 mins later they sold... All my mates and you people saying they looked sh*t hehe and its going to be a hassle to get them powder coated and chasing up bits and pieces.. If I find a set already silver, already with tyres I might get them again in the future, made a lil profit in the sale also I might add, so its win win.. Maybe ill just buy a VLT and be done with it hahaha..
