I love these cars everytime I fill the thing up it makes me want to empty it in a hurry. ive been in the 300 club for a little bit nearly 2mths now & its still climbing, its just taken me this long to pull my finger out & post up.

just a little list to start off. at 320rwkw capa flash tune, growler intake, 42lb injectors, 3" hi flow cat on fac exhaust, turbo mod & actuator, fuel pump,dds I/c & custom tune.

was good fun but you know it ive got 1 hell of a bug. this lasted about 2 wks before I started planniing my next mode of attack so starting 2 weeks ago I had a aps phase III kit fitted, x force 4' dump, 3 1/2 cat & 60lb injectors & is currently sitting on 343rwkw. yes it sounds low for that kit but we can blame the cat back exhaust I hadn't changed. by simply dropping from the y pipes after the cat off it jumped to 384rwkw. not to be a fluke put the system back on 343, dropped it off 379rwkw. the wife went to pick up the car back (was at work 150klm away) from a disappointed tuner who called & simply said we need to talk about a new exhaust and explained the prob. not to be deterred I made a phone call & had me an exhaust on its way. called the tuner back & said when do you want the car back. so monday week I should have a little more to add to this novel.

hopefully theres an attachment with is. is of the previous 320rwkw tune. (didnt want a chart of current one til it was complete)

just a little update. had the exhaust fitted today but there were a few little rattles so it had to come on & off a few time to get it right. is goin back on the dyno to be retuned first thing in the morning so I should have something to get excited about by lunchtime. cant wait. has been a 4wk journey this time around between tuning issues & waiting for the new exhaust. cant wait to get ahold of it & see what it can do. I think I might be looking for some wider tyres some how!!!

good stuff, what sort of tyres are you currently running?

its sticky rubber you want, not nessesarily wider. Hanra found a wicked deal on some brilliant tyres that I have on my car... solved all my traction issues and theyre lasting quite well too.

g'day nick,

heard truck loads about your animal cant wait to see it in action. im runnin federals at the moment & have been doin a pretty good job up to now but I think that could change. just got news from svs it pulled 490rwhp with rear muffler on & they dropped it off & it pulled over 500 so its getting a little trim in the morning to solve that prob. dont know the exact number said it pulled 520 at on stage but toned it down a little.

have the car back, final dyno readout 503.4rwhp & 1685nm. things an animal to hold on to with factory 17" on it. good fun with strraight line powerslides but no good for fun at the lights. when I work out how to minimise pics & dyno sheet will post it all up. bloody new computer!!! I think im gonna keep the x force exhaust for cruising around, its nice & quiet on the highway & doesnt standout even when your full up it (except for the endless sound of rubber looking for the road), but will have a back section made up for dyo & 1/4 mile trips.

hopefully ive finally been able to upload this dyno chart. its been a fun trip up til now with more fun to come. ive asked alot of dumb questions but I think they've paid off with the results im seeing everytime I get in and drive the car. should be better now. got a set of federal 595rs-r fitted this arvo but didnt get a chance to put some heat into them & test them out. exhaust bits & pieces turned up as well so hopefully all that should go on before this weekend or at least before the clubs show day at palmcove. will eventually post pics up of the car inside & out with the few bits & pices ive put on it to make it my own.
