That looks near identical to my initial setup, only I had a BBM which was way easier to pipe than that looks.

IIRC it didn't dose. It made a loud chooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo noise.

Props for effort but I hope it's not all about "dosing". That word seems so cheap and farked now

It used to have some prestige.

If you wanna keep it on gas and run low boost (up to 6PSI) get a 225 mixer and a IMPCO EB-2 or Aussie B2 converter. You'll need a BOV though, or the car will stall every time you try to "dose" it

I am the low boost LPG expert now I reckon lol. Gill and I had so much trouble getting the ED going on a simple and cheap gas setup, and everyone wasn't sure what to do or how to fix the little dramas I was having or telling me to go all out with the proper GRA gear. I proved 'em wrong and shit

Got 5000km or so out of it reliably.

Prestige in a falcon or prestige in general. Cause for at least 8 years I know the first thing with VLs, Cordias, Skylines and other various turbo things, Dosing was the first mod and every VL/Cordia/Skyline drivers would do. Id say the prestige when out in the 1990s as soon as VLs became 2nd hand.

Forget it. I'm not going to get technical over a passing comment.

Ha ha , lots of people have tried to claim this setup as thier old setup ! All i can say is you weren't the only turbo back then.
low boost LPG expert, cool, what sort of boost were you running ? and what power was it making ?
Dosing and prestige ?? in the same sentence ??you wouldn't put killing turbos and prestige in the same sentence ? would you ?
For the record this setup DOES dose, whether that is good or bad, not up to me to decide.

by **SnyperEB** » January 5th, 2009, 7:30 am

I just wanna have a drive a see how it feels.

by **BROCKYB8** » January 5th, 2009, 7:53 am

SHaun the xf will be turbo very soon as well hehe

by **SnyperEB** » January 5th, 2009, 7:59 am

Yeah but its an XF not an EB....... So not as cool!!

Lol. Well when it gets the all clear, I will take you for a drive.

As I dont know all that much, I cant really reply to ya Sunny. But yes, all I do want it for is to dose

Where'd I write that I had the first setup like that and the first turbo E-Series on the planet? I just said that it's like mine and nothing more.

"Many have tried to claim these as their own".. It's not all that special. Not sure why people would want to claim the design/setup as their own creation?

Why are you asking my what power and boost with my LPG setup? Me > You when it comes to turbo and LPG. Already figured that one out when Beth said her LPG shit's already gone to god.

Still never heard of anyone killing a turbo from dose. Seems like one of those myths. You should know better than to dabble in myths, you know, being a professional tuner and all. I did 15,000km on my turbo with no BOV and it was as good as brand new when I parted ways with it.

by **Commando** » January 5th, 2009, 10:33 am

I'm thinking it's just bad wording? Ie, you've posted it looks "near-identical" to your old setup, but are obviously saying it's not your old setup. Plus it does sound pretty generic ("T-04E, LOG MANIFOLD, 38MM WASTEGATE, (LPG)") so a lot of people could say they've had or have that setup

Boost & Power questions sound more out of interest than a challenge?

Claiming that killing a turbo thru dosing does sound banworthy though

Regardless of whether it's true or not

God-damn I'm starting to sound like Frost. Time for me to STFU

put a 90* bend into turbo and then we can have a dose off

by **Dumpsta** » January 5th, 2009, 3:31 pm

The rocker cover looks tops! I actually saw an ef or el gli the other day in rocky with pink pinstriping, 2 chicks driving, pink certainly catches your eye, it'll be pleasing to the ear now too. Nice!

by **pHaT`eL** » January 5th, 2009, 3:59 pm

So much anger on these forums

It doesnt have a huge dose, but its loud enough to make peoples heads turn and go WTF!!

The gas hasnt shit itself, just cant give it much throttle because it cant supply enough gas at WOT.

Once the new gear is in, should be fun

by **SnyperEB** » January 7th, 2009, 9:03 pm

Certainly had a fair crowd around it last night at the mini meet!!!1

by **John_LS1** » January 7th, 2009, 9:32 pm
