Matts next visit, it will be turned up!

If you are not doing this, give it a whirl but you may need to rescale MAF and amend MAP part of tune....

Please also note that my FPR is underneath the 3 inch intake.

Evidence of my small exhaust leak at the collector of the V1 KillerB EL headers :

NICE WORK MATE !

[jslayz]

2 hours of wrapping the buggers and now this.....frustrating!!

[jslayz]

New motor has 4500kms on it and is going well.
Have some maintenance planned for the weekend:
Got my new exhaust cam sensors so can fit and this will fix the small oil leak that you get as a result of farked cam sensors.
Will also be changing my main ECU power relay too.

Once these are done I'll be able to fit V1 of my custom undertray

Did you end up going with your wave design?

[jslayz]

short with curved kicker is V1

Update, been supplied wrong exhaust cam sensors....bugger.

On the plus side, while under there, I noticed a 90degree hose leaking coolant at the oil cooler plate above the oil filter.
Replaced hose with a new one.

Redid foam around heat exchanger and front bar, funnelling in more air now.

Checked n Tightened hose clamps that needed it.

Decided to mod the remaining undertray before going full custom. Will be faster just to add a smooth angle to what will be left of the old undertray once I chop it into what I need. Save me redoing the mounting points anyways.

Hopefully have a chance to do this tomorrow.

Soooo I found and fixed an exhaust leak.
Cat to center pipe gasket fail.
Niiiice, car is much more pleasant on the longer journey now.

Still need to get my undertray modded and fitted, so bloody busy at this time of year!

I may also remove the oil heat exchanger as my oil is being heated by that device when I don't want it to be heated!

I'm already at operating temp.....still adds heat to the oil.

I'll report my findings

Interesting, I also posted about removing mine (as the replacement engine didnt' have one and I don't want to re-use the old one as it's full of metal shavings). My main concern with this was that the oil would take a long time to warm up.

I'm thinking I will put on an oil cooler with a thermostat though (possibly behind the front grille, possibly where the TMIC was)

How did you diagnose the cat/mid pipe zorst leak? Soapy water spray?

[jslayz]

Hose to ear.
Pffft Pffft

The mishimoto one looks the goods.
Any other suggestions?

Oil cooler kit needed. Hot weather has owned me! Will be adding in my next holidays
After a sheet aluminium fail on the undertraydue to my lack of skills n patience i fitted a butchered stock undertray and added a 40mm kicker under the 4 into 1 collector.

Looking forward to addng more boost on Tuesday will post result

what oil cooler are you going with? I have a 10 row with a water sprayer & it works really well
