Like BT said, where are you? Check out the sponsors forum, they're respresentatives from almost every major location around the place.

I'd start of with CAPA Edit and custom tune, and see where that gets you. Then, go bigger injectors/springs after that if you want more.

Do you really need to do springs? I'm still running stockies thus far

Thanks Buf been biting my tongue.....

It's a Phoon not one of these stocko pov packs... :pinch::stirthepot:

No no no friends. If you read his post carefully, he has an 06 BF Typoon. Springs are much more comfortable when pooning.

Hi,

Thought I'd add my 2cents since I've been doing some progressive upgrades on my 2006 BF F6 Typhoon.

Firstly on the flash edit... pretty good and definitely the first step. I'm not quite sure how to replicate 260rwkw with it however. We topped out at 246kw and were getting deminishing returns - probably due to heat soak. The car made 217rwkw in factory trim with 3000kms on the clock.

As you will see from this ('as driven' = factory spec), adding more boost made almost no difference in the top end. To me it seemed like it was fighting a losing battle with a restriction, and all that was being generated was heat.

I'd like to add, however, that the x-flash programs used were pretty much 'off the shelf' and no custom tuning was done. It cost me $1295inc GST

To alleviate the restriction, we fitted a 4 inch stainless dump pipe, high flow 4" inline cat, and a new merge to take it all into the standard exhaust (ie standard mufflers etc). It cost me about $1200-1400 for the gear and $100 to get it professionally fitted.

Gains in response time were immediate, and a custom tune produced the following results, which I am very happy with. Again, I was unable to replicate the power figures given in previous posts, as the injectors were very close to max duty cycle (@269rwkw). Wanting a safe, reliable tune, and the peace of mind knowing I can push it to 100% in any conditions prompted me not to push the AFR barrier.

My next step is probably either a new PWR standard-mount intercooler upgrade, or new injectors. I'm not sure which yet. For the sake of more power, new injectors would mean I could run more boost for longer, however, I feel this would only serve to heat the intake charge more.... so I am leaning towards a new intercooler.... when the wallet recovers a bit :)

Cheers,

Leigh
