Adrian,

Nice Colour. Very Nice.. I like...

To get 300rwkw you should get yourself:

A CAPA Box, or maybe Elite use the sniper software.

6 Siemens Injectors

F6, Monza(Wog Cooler) or Process West Cooler so you can have consistant performance in the QLD heat.

Custom Dyno Tune

If you want to save some coin, the fatcory CAT may hold you back. My BFII made 305 with the stock exhaust. You can almost guarantee your cat will burn out in 6 to 12 months, so maybe put a better cat in when the factory one dies.

AS a safety precaution, the factory drive plate bolts are "finger tight". I know, mine fell out and screwed the drive plate. $800 later it's all good now.

BTW: My daily driver has 305 at the wheels. It does 12.4 secs on the Qtr

Enjoy it mate.

Tony

senna_T, I'm looking at RAPIDS stuff at the moment, you're right we certainly are spoilt for chioce. Thanks for the input, much appreciated. I'm just wondering if RAPIDS cooler may be a little too big for my requirements?

Tab, pm sent to Paul@elite and am awaiting reply. Cheers for the link.

BA_XR6Turbo_Ute, it would seem Elite have a great rep, look forward to speaking with them. What have you had done to your ute?

tonester, thanks mate, that's exactly the sort of info I'm after. I've had thoughts of replacing the cat with a more efficient product, perhaps a 3 1/2" Metal Cat. Little scary to hear about the flex plate bolts, what were the symptoms? How have you found the transformation in performance? Any cons or reservations from upgrading to this power level? Oh, is yours an auto or manual?

Thanks again guys for the info, much appreciated.

Adrian

Started sounding like it had a "Truck Exhaust Brake through the car when you backed off, but this only happenend when you boosted it up, then backed off straight away. This was the symptom of a "bent flex plate". When the bolts were almost out, it sounded like a tin of nuts & bolts being shaken at idle.

How have you found the transformation in performance?

Stunning, Nothing beats the rush of torque at 3000RPM. A modded T can't be compared to a stocky.

Any cons or reservations from upgrading to this power level?

Being reminded of the "You play - You Pay", warranty problems.

Oh, is yours an auto or manual?
