I will post the Dyno graph later today or first thing tomorrow. Yes, you are spot on with the boost control from early rpm, it was an issue for them but they were always confident of sorting it out.

The power is much better when and wherever I need it. You all should get Edited when $$$ permits.

It will be good to see the graphs, I have a completely stock T and I’m not planning on moding the exhaust yet just the EDIT, I hope I can get 240RWKW at 9psi.

Fr33dy, mines in today at HPF for the Edit, Stock as a rock besides the home made CAI.

Ran 195rwkw as is with BP Ultimate Fuel.

Lets see what happens when I pick her up tomorrow

I wait with anticipation I will book mine with a sydney tuner soon

Good on ya Steve...enjoy your ride mate.

Wanna post some more feedback on the difference on the road the car has now? A lot of people are in a similar position to you before EDIT - they'd find your description very useful.

[Guest mercurysteve]

Thanks Pashen,

O.K, Differences observed in past 24 hours, no particular order.

1) Boost comes on much harder and effortlessly, less effort from the right foot.

2) All over the revs, whatever the gear I'm in, she is much "easier" to drive and get along with.

3) She is more responsive, particularly under part throttle.

4) When changing manually, I really get thrown back much more than before, especially in first and second.

5) I am much more confident at the lights, just squirts away quicker and before I know it I'm hitting 100 clicks and backing off.

6) Car is less noisy, definately working more efficiently.

7) Although early days, using less fuel (done 150 clicks since Edit)

Engine temp gauge is quite a bit lower than before Edit. Strange?

I have not even been beyond 110klm p/hr so it's hard to say anything about that part of the cars performance. But if it's not half a second quiclker I'd be very surprised.

Feel free to ask away on any other Q's

Are you getting more wheelspin or chirps in between changes ?

[Guest mercurysteve]

DEFINATELY! The bloody traction light is on every time I'm in the thing now!

Much "chirpier" and wheel spin a plenty, got wheel spin in first with traction ON once!

Mate I will do the trans cooler soon, better be safe than sorry.

As for maps, went for the recomendation of some other members.

1) 3500rpm Valet & sh*tty fuel map

2) Daily driver (241rwkw)

3) Race tune with some Nulon. Will never really use it though, it's just a couple degrees more timing really.

Cheers

Steve, so you get 3 Custom maps plus the the factory one, is that right?

[Guest mercurysteve]

Yep, you are spot on. 3 plus standard Ecu map are help in the controller

[C.S.I]

Glad your happy with it Steve.

Rob said mines in the high 230's ??, Cant remember exactly.

What did your Zorst cost, and thru who??

I'll pick mine up tomorrow morning first thing. Then I'll know more..Jeez, I cant wait.

Good Luck with future mods. This is as far as I'll take mine
