    Hoyhoy.

    Well, well about time I say, I know you like to track so you won't be sorry.
    As for me I'm back at Waky on the 8/Nov. hoping to crack into the 1.12's with all me trim in.

    Yeah I really wanna get back to Oran Park before it's gone. Fastest at OP is 1:28.8, if I can get into mid 27's I'll be happy. Think 26's might be dreaming

    Fastest at Waky is 1:16.5, if I can cut 1.5 seconds it will be a good day

    I guess its peace of mind...

    Without wanting people to start digging up stuff off Vortex. I don't remember the tune of a standardish car ever lunching an engine.

    Sure, if there's big turbos and stuff involved there's scope for stuff to go off like the 4th of July.

    The software from all major tuners can be trusted 100% IMO. Any issues post flash will be hardware issue, duff plugs, MAFs etc.

    Hi Floody,

    Did you get the polo on at the dyno day? I had a flick through the results and saw one that may have been your car, but it seemed a little unexpected if so. Dramas with the run?


    Cheers,

    -Phil.

    Yeah we think the TIP end into the turbo is loose. I can feel the clamp spin It was throwing codes saying check DV, replaced that and the same problem. Confident that's what it is though.

    Thats a bugger. I've heard that upping the boost is a good way to find all the loose hoses in your engine

    Hope you get it sorted soon.
