Blueatreak are making good bushes now. Reviews are good from everyone that's installed them. Makes them himself but are about $300 which solves the sideways movent at the front.

^bad for stock cars or for anyone who doesn't like extreme NVH. They do the job they're designed to do extremely well...no axle tramp and really lock the diff down...but by god are they noisy!

^ not sure about the noise. Was a big discussion on faceboobs about them and everyone reckons no road noise at all? 

 

Not sure, not running them myself so maybe they are but might be a worthy trade off

I did a reasonable amount of driving this morning. 

 

There isn't much noise from the back at all really. 

 

No axle tramp either. 

 

Result=Happy.

I did some logging and tuning today in the 39 degree heat.

 

I eventually turned it down a bit due to 98 octane not handling the current setup and environment.

 

I know I should have it perfectly set up to deal with environmental changes but I have been either A) cbf or B) been busy with kids or C) cbf cos I've been busy with kids. 

 

So I adjust it as I go when I have the time/inclination. 

 

As some of you will know, I still have a stock cat back, stock intake and stock valve springs. The rest is good for plenty more. 

 

It can still run rich as fark (I checked) at 6k so the fuel is ok. 

 

Other news is that my intercooler runs a max of 20c over ambient under load. 

 

I logged the wg duty cycle and it needs 80% to keep 16 psi at 5k rpm.

 

It seemed laggy too, making 16 psi at 3700rpm from a 3rd gear, 2200 rpm roll with no brake and 100% wgdc until 3600.

 

I think I may have farked up my wg preload and it is getting blown open.

 

I'll have a look at it over the weekend.

 

Everyone in my house has gone to bed now so I'm really just making conversation as I'm interested in other people's thoughts, ideas, opinions and facts.
