Will see how I go. I'm just very conscious of increasing noise and I don't like noisy cars as I drive down to Phillip Island on weekends and don't want a drone all the way down there. I'm big on research so will choose carefully as I go along. Let's see what gains I can get with the first step and how happy I'm with the parts and tuner. Then I'll move forward.

Take a ride in my car mate, 3" TBE (2.25" Y-pipe split) and it's not loud at all unless you want to be. No drone either, unless you want to drive in 4th at above 70km/h (cruising) in which case you will get a bit of drone. No drone at 100 in 6th etc.
Perfect for me. Might see you there on Saturday if I can make it.

Saw your car at Revzone today whilst dropping mine off. What an amazing find. I want to see and hear it on the road. I reckon you see some pretty unreal cars in your line of work. I'm guessing you're in the auto wholesale business.

Keep us all up to date on developments and when it will be back on the road.

Not sure on the power. George reckons maybe 180kw or so.

I to get more low and midrange power with a safe tune.

Either way he reckons I'll be blown away with the results. Let's see.. It's only 24 hours away so I'm trying not to think too much about it and will just wait and see.

Not sure where you live but if you'd like to check it out PM me and we can tee up a time. I'm in Blackburn Victoria.

Just got home after picking up the car and going for a bit of a drive.

Car is making 361.8Nm torque at 3195RPM and 178.2KW at 5511RPM

Gains are 34.9Nm and 26.2kW

George said the boost has not been touched from factory settings as they didn't have to.

Boost is from factory and was 14.2psi.

Will scan and post the graph in my post the mods thread when I'm next in the office tomorrow.
