No particular boost but weren't looking to go much over 14. I didn't ask why it only tapered to 10 and didn't hold 12 or higher

On a side note after the first tune it was idling really high to the point it would do 10km/h at idle. Idle was dropped back to standard but now car is stalling...

Has to go back in again cause my oil temp gauge isn't working and it was definitely working when I dropped it off. Will have to get this idle sorted aswell

but have to go to Melbourne in December so may stop by n see mick but wait and see at the moment.

December, I will not be doing any tuning or getting involved in any problem jobs, I'll be close to having a baby in early December and sorry to say but that's going to be my priority and do not want to leave some one stranded half way through a job

I could be wrong but I think the cars running the standard fg turbo and are holding 12 psi towards the top end have an upgraded actuator. Im pretty sure my car isn't running the standard actuator and it holds 16 psi until 4000rpm then tapers to 12 psi

The guy who bought my old BA put a full x force twin 2.5 exhaust from turbo back and it made 315 along with flapper mod and actuator. I just had 100 cell cat and middle muffler deleted.

Fair enough Mick, I'd be more worried about the kid too! Next option will probably be Herrod. I know they don't get much mention on here but they have looked after my dad's GT and it runs great and they're friendly guys there. Not really keen on paying another tuner to retune it but yea.

Do you think it would be worth getting Gentech to retune it since the fuel pump has been change Mick? If you had the same thing happen would you retune your customers car?

So flat out then is his next step a stronger actuator? Like if this is what his car will make with these mods, obviously he has the safety with the surge tank, but then his next step to get more is...?

Yea true

Also shp in regards to turbo, I inspected it when I installed the turbo side and no fin damage or shaft play

Next question I guess, where to from here. Im assuming the turbo isn't out of puff at 295 so what would people think is the next logical step to get more out of it?
