Last week I had a 12psi actuator, ported wastegate and bigger flapper fitted, to go along with this I also added a bigger fuel pump and a re-tune to suit...

All I can say is WOW... it's a real handful now in a straight line in the dry in 2nd gear, with the previous tune I had in the car it would hit 15psi and then drop off to around 12psi or so, now with the actuator and a re-tune that Dave performed it hits 14psi (dropped for the sake of the factory internals) and stays there... the rush from the turbo just never stops. It works great with the long gearing in my car (3.46's and T56 on 20's), and this I think previously helped to keep wheelspin under control in 2nd gear unless it was really cold or on cold tyres, I haven't been out in the car when it's really cold as yet but I imagine by the feel I get from it now that it might get a bit scary in 3rd (120kph+)... madness :spit::spit::msm:

It really is now time for better/wider tyres and bigger brakes. They are the next thing I'm going to do... but I need more money!! :spoton:

Thanks Nizpro for making my car even better again... it's difficult to believe that it could more fun than this... and I've really only just started modding it!! Crazy!! You guys with 350rwkw+ are just out of control!!!

Yep, it sure is good fun!

Too right!!

I've got to be really careful changing lanes in 2nd gear now as when it hits boost it wants to do the lane changing all by itself... :spoton:

The thought of that is just scary... I can't even imagine what your car is like to drive... it must be brilliant!! :msm::msm::msm:
