Hey guys,

Well my car finally got tuned last week by Nizpro after waiting nearly 3 years for the warranty to run out. My car is a 2011 Silhouette in manual trim, with black leather interior. Up until this point, it was bone stock other than some gauges and a turbo oil filter and it remains as my daily driver :) . I ended up getting the following mods done over a 2 day period:

Nizpro polished cooler kit

Nizpro turbo side intake and battery re-location (included dry cell odyssey style batt)

Nizpro 4" full staino system

ID1000 squirters

Nizpro wastegate port and flapper mod

XCAL4

Ended up turning to 354rwkw on around 17 pounds of boost. Pretty darn happy with that. I have asked simon a few questions though as the figures are a bit lower than the shots I took of it on the dyno. For instance my stock run peaked at 260rwkw and on the printed out chart, only showed 247rwkw so not sure why there's a diff from when they did the runs? I think it made 360ish on the high power runs. I realise their dyno is a pretty hard marker, but from all the reading I've done that power sounds about right for those mods.

I'll scan some charts and show you what I mean about the diff from the actual runs to the print outs on the last day.

It's pretty hairy now, as rolling on in 3rd just torches the tyres!! :yeahyeah: I look forward to getting some E85 soon (not available at all where I live) and see if we can break the the 400 barrier and run a 10. As the car sits now though, its stacks of power as my daily and I really love the new note its got. That and the insane torque gain makes it such a nicer car to drive! Their 4" stainless system is pure sex and sounds absolutely amazing!! Worth every cent if you ask me. It doesn't drone what so ever at freeway speeds, and really sounds throaty and nasty when you're on the loud pedal. I think I'll be putting some sound deadening in my race intake though, to keep the fuzz from constantly pulling me over :riaa:

Pics and some charts to follow :)

Cheers,

Rob

Good results, you have to be happy with that. Tyres on these cars are replaced nearly as often as refuelling lol.

changed my diff oil today as its got some serious noises coming from the diff. I don't drive the car hard at all but think these manuals are a lot harder on the driveline that first thought. It's done 29,000 kays and I've owned it since new. The oil that came out looked like poo brown with a very fine metallic fleck in it... :lalala:

I'd say a moser wave-trac will be on the cards sooner than I thought. The castrol oil on the other hand has made a considerable diff in noise, so hopefully my diff thanks me for a while!

CAT600 reckons it's best to change the oil out every 10,000 kms with the stock LSD. Apparently it helps keep it somewhat quiet. He reckons they're dirty little buggers!

Yep I change my diff oil a lot. Every 10k minimum, or if it's done a couple of track days I'll change it too. The oil is cheap!

Yeah, if memory serves correct the owners manual reckons to change the diff oil every 6 months if the car is subjected to extended high speed.
