Wow not a single 'used to much filler comment', I'm genuinely impressed.

It's come far and it appears to have been left in good hands.

And here you were telling me you're going to be living off baked beans for the next week over $25!

I'm happy you got what you were after.

Only the kids will be eating beans mate, I'll be hitting up the Boags and Hungarian salami. Good luck with the seats, let us know how it goes.

No e85 Ash I can't be fucked with it at the moment. No one sells it along any of my normal routes ( FUCK YOU United Mindarie ). I will be keen for a Rallysprint after the RAC tuning day in Feb and RAC sprints start in march. I haven't driven the big girl in anger since September last year. Plus I'm not sure who would be prepared to co-drive with me after 'the incident'...

Had a good morning at Bluestar today with Jarrod and Jim installing group n transmission/engine mounts and doing some other minor inspections. Happy with the grp n mounts the car feels solid and a bit snappier with no increase in noise that I can tell and only a slight increase in vibration at higher rpm's.

It appears Prospeed have sent the wrong size turbo/housing to Racetorque, they ordered a 10cm but looks like an 8cm has arrived. Waiting on a response from Troy at Prospeed...

Updated first page as usual.
Picked it up this arvo. Tuned at 1.3bar/19psi.
Blouch Dominator 1.5xtr 8cm (ironically this is the size housing I originally wanted)
DW65c fuel pump.
Stock injectors hung on easily and then Lane wound them down as it was a bit rich at the top end - 10.3afr.
Power delivery is very linear. It actually feels a bit slower to begin with because the mid-range kick of the oem turbo is gone, it now pulls solidly from 3800-6000rpm.

Can't wait to get it back on the track and have some fun.
