    Got A Job!

    Haha awesome man! I got super lucky on Thurs, went into a job agency to sign up and as luck would have it a company in the same building as them needed someone. Got an interview set-up then and there, got the job on the spot and I start on Thurs!! Time to pay off some student debt/save for my road trip/spend on the GT! Wooop!
  2. I get this too; the actuator is applying enough force on the wastegate flap to keep it closed, but its the wastegate penny that is rattling up and down. You can hear a faint rattle but if you grab the actuator arm and hold it in place the rattle stops.
  3. 202mph...but I am running 1Bar of boost so...
  4. Looking good mate! PS. Can you make me a hybrid pwwweaasee!
  5. I have a GT2 here just gathering dust, but seeing as you don't want it I guess I'll just scrap it...
  6. I used matt black VHT paint just in case.
  7. Cheers guys! My next mod is a catch can!
  8. Update: Got it on the dyno, but my manifold had 2 nasty cracks in it. Still managed to pull 129WHP. Since then I've bought a few bits/changed a few things: Tweaked the air intake, looks a bit like a cannon now lol Some pics of the cracked stainless: Bought a SPS mild steel manifold, wrapped it and fitted it! Some pics: ] Wow! What a difference its made! My turbo spools up so much better than before and I have full boost at like 2.5k lol. Before it was like 3.5! (my mani was leaking). Feels more responsive as well! Very good purchase! Polished my RX cooler today:
  9. Yeah but he had a fairly low mileage engine/turbo! Not to mention he had a good setup all looked after by an eManage! Also if you're looking for 190/200, hybrid is definitely the way to go! If you did manage to peak 190 out of a normal CT9 I doubt it would last much longer! Also dub7 made 200+ on a CT9, but with a fully rebuilt engine and ported head, and again I'm sure that CT9 was strained to its limits! Fuel cut is around 12-13-ish Psi yeah, so you'd need to set it below that. It would be a great idea to port the wastegate before doing anything, and run a nice steady 12ish Psi without m
  10. I doubt you'll make 190 on an old CT9 with an old engine tbh mate. Over on the Aus Starlet Club they are chuffed to make 150whp on a CT9 setup, so be happy with 170/180 at the fly. Spec list looks OK, but if I were you I'd buy an eManage or even a Unichip as opposed to spending £500 on a JAM ECU. You can pick up 2nd hand emanages (and espeically unichip's) for fairly cheap, even with mapping on top it would only just be more expensive than a JAM and will probably give you much better results! Just my 2p.
  11. Looks like my braced Autobahn mani tbh!
  12. We should just meet today...right now! Ha
  13. Haha love how occasionally this thread gets resurrected when someone has an "incident"! Smelly cat, smelly cat, its not your faulllltttt!
  14. Welcome to Boostsville! Population: Jag. Haha, enjoy it mate, looks very clean!
  15. Eeekkk! Fitting your BCS and FPR will make everything fine....if by fine you mean not fine! You can use the BCC to remove fuel cut and then the FPR to increase fuelling to compensate for the extra boost.

  16. Are you going to put a 4EFTE in the Paseo?!!??!?!?!?!?!!??! I WIN I WIN I WIN!
  17. Got some gay coursework due in on the 23rd, then my dissy/project on the 30th! Then 3 exams at the middle/end of May! WHY CAN'T IT JUST BE OVER! lol PS. Whats Sparky's and wales_tuner's beef about?!
