I'll put the photos up after the tuning. everything looks and feels the goods, I'm quite impressed. At idle, blowing freely to atmosphere by jeebus is moves some air. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos310 Donating Members 228 Member For: 12y 2m 24d Gender: Male Posted 05/04/15 04:12 AM Author Share Posted 05/04/15 04:12 AM So, I got tuned the other week. It was quite interesting. On pump 98 at 16psi it made 384kw, which is about right from the last tune I had done, so that's a good starting point. then in went some E85, went up 40kw... more boost, more kw's... more boost more kw's... I was receiving a flurry of text messages letting me know what figures I've pushed which was great. Then I got the news I was looking for.. 496.2kw / 665.5hp HAPPY DAYS!!! stoked, a mere 3.8kw away from the 500 ( which I had not aimed for ) the graph looked great, the boost wasnt too high, the car was responding well and I was happy to call it a day, successful as it was. ... Then I got to thinking... 3.8kw... surely it can be found... so I spoke to Rob and asked if he had any magic left to drop me at the next nearest 100kw...... Tense 1/2hr wait and I get the message, minimalist at best.. just the following "505rwkw"505kw / 1216.8Nm (677hp & 897lbft) with a little under 24Psi on United E85.Happier than a pig in mud. It's still very linear, got a fierce intake noise and pulls harder than a teenager.and with that in mind, this is where the mods will stop on this one. After racewars, it'll go back onto 98 and get a big tune done, then I'm going to leave it alone.I'm more than happy with the power it makes, I might just add some wheels to set it apart and that's it.there are some things I would do differently, given my time again... I'd buy an auto to start with, just because clutches are expensive and I dont flick through the cogs as fast as the trickery inside the FG auto boxes. I'd listen to a few more people early on ( the right ones though ) .. I'd get the process west intake elbow.. just because its nicer than the cast alloy thing I hastily bought and I'd probably try to be a bit more involved with the other bits I did not do (because all good technicians love the customer watching on) and I'd go straight to a big fuel system, instead of taking a half way step ( read newbies: avoid taking half way steps, they will cost you more in the long run 99% of the time)One thing, that I can definitely say I would not change would be where and who I took the car to for the extras and tuning. You're probably all sick of me mentioning how impressed I am with the crew at Monsta Torque, but I'm going to go again here and say that the car would not be this good, without their attention. Rob, Kate and Darren are in a league of their own I believe. As busy as they were, they were always open to chatting about the setups and where to go next or what to expect. For the size of their shop and work force they have really put some formidable cars out the door in the time I have been doing mine. They are prepared to go that little bit further to make sure you're happy and the random texts or calls out of the blue, to see how it's all going are great. My experience has been nothing but positive from the get go and for the new guys and gals out there who are thinking of modding their car and don't know where to go in perth, My advice is plastered all the way through this mods thread.Cheers. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm the same as you, happy as a pig in sh*t with the service and constant care.. I even get txts every now and then asking me how my cars going. Wouldn't take it anywhere else for services/upkeep and only recommend them as the place to go this side of the country. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
