well after very close to 5 months the car is finally at the tuners. They have to sort out a few little issues and teething problems but I'm hoping it will be ready soon. Don't want any more power but having the atomic bottom end and valve springs plus the surge tank it should be a fair bit more reliable this time round. I'll let you all know how it goes.

well I got the tax return in the bank, looks like it could be time to wind it up to 350+ at the wheels, got a few goodies in the spare room.

getting a steel sump for the zf so it will probably get tuned at the same time as the oil change.

Possibly a bit more rubber under the rear end too, if I can stretch the budget

Go hard! The while no missus thing wouldn't work for me. Child support would cost more than the car haha.

Still slowly aquiring a few more goodies each payday . . . monthly :banghead:

Latest is a set of flow matched 80lb injectors to go with the total overkill twin 044's on my surge tank. One day we will have e85 up here, hopefully before the ol girl gets cancer and rusts away.

I have to getthe battery getting properly sorted in the boot and then it's getting close to tune time. PW plenum and lil cooler, nizpro airbox and hotside. It's a real mongrel breed thing but I love her.

Currently pricing up some rims/tyres but not having much luck with people having the combo I'm after.

Some cool parts there.

Might be worth getting a drum of e85? Go on, do it. I love seeing more and more of these making big powerssssss

No go on the E85, tuner not to keen on it, not enough interest in cairns to bring up 44's so far. I'll stick with the 60lb's for a while. Tune has been booked in for the week starting 7th of november, see how I go this time. Tyres and rims are getting sorted through Taleb, waiting on stock at the moment but I'm not in a big rush.

Well with the Nizpro airbox and intake, PW baby cooler and plenum, 38mm turbosmart v-port BOV and Nizpro overboost valve it made 520 rwhp or 385rwkw. After a bit of raod testing and tweaks by the tuner a bit of timing was taken out of the 5000rpm+ range and a bit of fuel was added. Dyno sheet to come tomorrow hopefully.

Drives way better and this overboost valve works great with the zf, but if I just bring it on boost slowly then back off the turkeys go rank in the airbox.
