if he's referring to a GTX3582R then yeah, it'll hold pretty high boost all the way to the red line in a falcon...

GTX3576R will probably have a similar but not so drastic flow reduction in the top end.

Wilko, did you change your cat?

From what I know of the FG exhaust, the cat is really the only restriction in the turbo models, until of course you change the turbocharger ;)

Yeah mine has a venom cat, running 14psi till the end

Ratter explained to me that the stock exhaust is good, but it still causes back pressure and can then start to effect the valves (as I still have stock springs)

He said valve spring upgrade would be able to get more power or put a more free flowing exhaust on

Every car is different, mine also has 120,000k's on it

Here's a dyno sheet if anyone curious

As usual for Mick, an almost perfect power curve haha

I see that yours didn't even hold 14PSI to the red-line... that's surprising. You're probably right, though, exhaust or valve springs could be holding you back :) The graph was definitely on it's way to 320+ until about 4600 rpm :)

nice looking dyno sheet!

My dyno sheet seems to have the peak power come on alot earlier than yours does. My torque is around 821nm which is a lot higher as well. Not sure what that has to do with, the tune and other factors to do with the FG I assume.

I will try to upload it tonight when I get home

Jet!

Some bloke left the gym the other day in a new R8 cwubby, and his exhaust was all quiet until im assuming bimodal opened it up and it sounded good??

Do they have bimodal exhausts?

It was all quiet quiet quiet Mcfkuken ROAR sounds awesome quiet quiet

Roar sounded good, but quiet was terrible, and the transition was poo

If yours has bimodal, yeah left shoulder that crap....
