I will when A.I.R is open again
Remember AXLR8s' 12.6 run was with only 160Kw ATW, so don't be suprised if your mate loses aswell

As above - when AIR is open I'll be happy to run your $20k, 400 (engine/wheel)kw Starion. I hope you've paid attention to your suspension setup :P
For argument's sake I currently have 216wkw, so roughly 310 flywheel kw on a rough tune and other niggles - and AWD.

Nah a Galant not a Starion, hence the AWD :)
And again for arguments sake here's a dyno graph. Looks like the wastegate might be stuck open, it's out of fuel and the cats cactus.

Yes, but its got another 200Kgs of weight, so it's a pretty even challenge
:P
18psi hey Dan.... :)
This is where I got the Cat for the Starion from >

The metallic ones are more forgiving on rich fuel maps then the standard high-flow ceramics.
I just hope they resurface AIR before it opens 'cause I'm definately not racing in the right lane where its got that wierd dip in it

Pfft it's only 1380kg.
Yeah pretty disappointing for 18psi but theres issues as said.
It was 190kw @ 12psi
210kw @ 16psi
216kw @ 18psi
So that proves theres issues as well as the turbo is just ramping up at that boost level.
Did you get the metallic substrate?
Feel free if you feel like helping me take my exhaust off, wire up injectors and make an airbox :P

Shhhh, you weren't suppose to disclose the real weight
Nah, I thought the numbers were on par with what I predicted, until I checked my post again, 240Kw @ 15psi and 280Kw @ 30psi, wow...... how far off I was........
Is the Boost reading coming from the Compressor cover or the Inlet Manifold btw ?
Yeah, I got the metallic substrate, the core itself was only $255 Shipped and then had the ends and flanges done over here.
I would just hollow out the one you have in there at the moment and see if its still holding it back, costs nothing except time and then get a proper one later on once the tune is perfect up to 30psi etc.
I should be able to drop in on Sunday but will msg you Saturday to confirm you'll be home and at what times :P
