So i got this thing tuned for powercruise after changing a few things .they had dramas with it . basicly wastegaste is to small ,injectors to big for ecu and ecu is crap as its only got a 1 or 2 bar map sensor . so this is the best they could do
293 kw atw

Why did you change to a smaller filter?

The exhaust looks awesome - 11ty times better than the shocking welds I manage :/

Look at your car. Now back to mine. Now back to yours. Now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine. But if you stopped buying dodgy cars and bought an ED, yours could be like mine. Look down. Back up.

Once you go black you never go back... that's something on the list for Gloria too, the blue stuff just doesn't work with a black and white engine bay :/

What ecu does this have at them moment and whats wrong with the injectors being to big. Is that in terms of impendance or the actual size of them.

That doesn't sound right??? Are you going to be using E85?

Why 1600cc injectors then? Room for E85 later?

i got them cheap off a mate .

ive also built the fuel system so if i built a big motor i can just add a 2nd pump .and not have to upgrade everything .

im over doing shit twice or 3 times .

new fuel rail has -8 inlets and -10 return . fuel reg is rated to 1200hp . surge tank can have another pump added later .

i may look at E85 later .
