It's running good but I have been keeping off boost. Even staying off boost it already feels much better. It's spooling up quicker and feels more responsive. The rear sway bar feels good but again without being able to put my foot down I have yet to be able to feel all the benefits. The stock ute handling was pretty bad I thought. Very sloppy and boaty. It's handles like it's on rails now. Sits flat, no body roll, hugs the corners, it rides firm but not harsh. The Bilsteins are definitely worth the coin. The rear sway bar will give it more predictable handelling. It should sit flat until you reach the limit of grip than start to oversteer, instead of understeer - body roll Than Oversteer.

Still no e85 in my area so I'll stick to 98 for now. Also I'm still on stock valve springs so I don't want to the tune over 15psi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there is circumtancial evidence that the FG's are showing signs of wear after springs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunmetal grey in the front bat and fog lights sit well against it. Almost bought a lightning strike tornado myself.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ended up making 330kw 1070nm on 14psi on 98. The dump that was on it was only actually 3" and the exhaust had a few holes (live near the ocean) so it's holding it back a fair bit up top. Also the standard actuator was having a hard time and boost was coming on quite late. Wasn't hitting 14lbs to 4000rpm. So iv bought a xforce 4"dump and exhaust, a 12lbs actuator, new exhaust gaskets and Anchorlox. Going back in a few weeks for a touch up on 98 and to get an e85 tune. Tuner is confident it will make 400kw on e85. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm making the switch to E85 to hopefully break the 400 barrier also in the next few months I think you'll do it easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
