fgvic Member 27 Member For: 11y 11m 15d Posted 06/08/13 12:27 PM Author Share Posted 06/08/13 12:27 PM No worries STAINLESS thanks for the tipYeh I know that's not why your doing it ratter!To be honest, I didn't think that there would be an issue if its all installed properly, and the parts are good quality bits that's been recommended in this thread! How would one cars power different from another car with the same engine and mods? That's not being smart, actually just wondering! Yeah secaboy looks like the way to go! Didn't realise it was going to be an issue haha haven't had much experience with modifying cars before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fgvic Member 27 Member For: 11y 11m 15d Posted 10/08/13 02:47 AM Author Share Posted 10/08/13 02:47 AM Oh ok fair enough ratter! Thanks mate!Yeah thanks masda74! You are probably right just seemed like a good deal getting all the parts installed for pretty much 500 $ plus tune! Z2TT, yeah I've been researching quite alot through these forums and have sussed out the better quality gear! Still not going for huge power anyways sp the mods seem pretty basic compared to some of the fg turbos out there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizkets is Drunk? Too heavy needs boost Member 5,929 Member For: 11y 5m 11d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 12/08/13 03:11 AM Share Posted 12/08/13 03:11 AM Looking a getting the car tuned. Still got warranty for 3 and a bit years wondering if you could get it done and save the factory tune on the xcal 3. And if anything went wrong fingers crossed it doesn't could you put the factory tune back And when they inspect the car it still looks stock or would it show up on a diagnostic. Any ideas cause I'm board with it now and want more punch. Any idea? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gave good advice on the Xr8 back in the day. Cheers guys and girls. I'll get a bit more cash together and let the tuning begin.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
