I always run around on 8psi with the once a moth cruise at 10psi. The 2 hose clamps closest to the Turbo were fairly loose and ive tightend them back up. Some other clamps were ok, however they are hexagonal bolts not normal screw driver stuff so I cant play with them.How tight should the clamps be, as some of mine were fairly easy to tighten back up???And whats the issue with BF spark plugs? I.B.They should be very tight... as tight as you can without breaking them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the day off, and I am so keen to flash it with some 10 PSI loving that I have already booked for the dyno at 1500hrs to make sure the ute loves it as much as I will!

I would think I would be very close to your car on the dyno. Is yours still stock just flashed? Dorko. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
