Where in the 300s will these mods get my G6ET on 98 fuel:

Walbro 400 (already fitted)

1000cc injectors (to be fitted)

PW stage 1 intercooler and piping (already fitted)

X-force - full system with the twin 2.5 pipes (already fitted)

GTX3582R gen2 with modded exhaust housing (36mm flapper, porting etc), and 14psi actuator.  Just picked up last week, to be fitted.

Tune being done on a roller dyno, will be go in the next few weeks when the tuner is free.  Thanks

Got car back fromtuner, achieved 355rwkw and 802nm, suffered bad heat  soak with follow up runs typically dropping 30rwkw.  Not too sure that the car feels that much different to drive over the old mods.  Definitely sounds better with the huge induction noise and turbo whine but just not quite going as well as I’d anticipated, not sure what to do next

Upgrade to the largest intercooler you can afford. The gen 2 is much lazier than a stock turbo, so until it gets turned up to 20+psi, it'll probably feel like a waste of time.

At least you have a decent actuator on there, so it'll be as responsive as it can be.

Wait for a cool day and see what you think, heat soak is a real power killer.

sounds like its pretty linear tune

 

I would expect 400 on 98. but there must be something holding it back or tuner is playing safe to not grenade your engine. 

 

I wouldnt say heat soak in NZ is that much of an issue but the stage 1 is not that bad.

My friend has his FG XR6T tuned at CTB, Made 270rwkw on their dyno then 310rwkw on a hub dyno so might sound lower than it actually is. Maybe you could try torque performance? I found Sam at CTB too busy to chat when I discussed having my car tuned there so decided against them.

What in the chit crap is that !!

 

no wonder you’ve got heat soak as he’s smashing in over 20psi on the hit and clearly way too much timing up top that it’s being reduced for the IAT’s 

 

You NZ’ers need new tuners that know how to work falcons 

 

20kmh/sec is for like 500+ hi stalled vehicles for christ sake 

 

you combo would suppprt around 14psi to make ~350 efficiently and correctly especially with a stage 1 cooler kit
