If you want the engine to survive your going to need to invest in a decent ecu. The tune needs to be totally different to make the most out of the 110 gas compared to 94. Why have a GT45R and only way to tune it an SAFC II? That being considered I think with the slightly lower compression. ARP...

To convert kw to hp multiply the kw figure by 1.34 to get the hp figure.

I would say that is about right for most supercharged cars but properly sized twin turbos like Justen has obviously make a lot more even at that low boost. It really depends on the compressor maps of the turbos for instance old school non ball bearing turbos don't require a lot of boost to make...

Neither does Justen but so far its holding together. Though like I said his is well tuned using an Autronic SM2. I better clarify what I meant before about piggybacks. To us Aussie's I guess we consider the conventional style piggyback, like an SAFC not to be up to the task of this sort of job...

Justen is running 17psi I believe on a totally stock, unopened engine and making 388rwkw 520rwhp (not its true output as it was wheel spinning on the dyno) though he is using an Autronic SM2 standalone. Don't attempt to put 12psi through a stock motor using the factory ECU or even a piggyback...

Actually I think you getting confused. There is VVTi (Variable Valve Timing or VVT same thing) and the is VVTLi (Variable Valve Timing and Lift)

I thought it could be carried and hooked up just the bottle had to be off.

Its the law in Japan to have a 180km/hr speed limiter. The celsior I'm sure has a 180km/hr speed limiter as well.

Hmm that is intersting about autotune. I realise you would start with a base map, then tune from there even with autotune. I thought it would have been much quicker to set some target AFR's load it up on the dyno throughout rev range to map it quicker than was possible with a human tuner and...

Your certainly a trend setter, or someone who's not afraid to do something 1st. 1st 18RGT I believe (in Oz), highest powered 1UZ with stock bottom end I have come across, so thanks for all your help you gave me I went onto rebuild the RG albeit NA and blow it up again, again big ends because...

Well let us all know a date when ya gunna run next. I presume it will be @ wizard? I'd like to come down and see it run a 10, which we both know its more than capable of, traction wise considering but those ET streets like you said should do the job just don't drop the pressures too much and I...

I think I have seen most, including the lose, or should I say optimistic use of the throttle, on the last turn at Wakefield followed by an incredidbly smoky u turn LOL and the Porsche getting owned, on used Porsche cup slicks too wasn't it? Still waiting on that 10s run @ WSID now the wick has...

Yeah my statement was tongue in cheek, its not my real birthday, its my net birthday which gave me a chuckle the number of emails I got. I am born in January, just not on the 1st. To give out your real DOB on the net is not wise for security reasons re: identity hijacking. But the year is...

I thought I was the only one lol.
