I'd like that 'slight' increase in power on my car too LOL
I think I need to find some cams and valves and drop them in the engine bay, maybe I'll have that slight power increase of yours :)
woody: mods.. just basic stuff really.. gt3076r, 16psi, 3 inch exhaust, extra cam, intercooler, wolf 3d v4, and a little bit higher compression i think the motor is now.. ;)
SK: Thanks mate :beer It's running much better now than when i took you guys around in it. Tuner said it was a bit under 180rwkw before he tuned it, and it was running really lean, so yeah, you were right, accelleration enrichment was a big part of it, but he richened up the mixtures all over the map as well. much more responsive now. So.. when's yours gonna be running??

don't try explaining that to her tho..... just leave. lol

sorry oldie, don't think i'll be able to push it to 18psi for the moment.. I know that the vr4 motors are strong in stock form, and in some cases have withstood heaps more boost without puking oil and metal everywhere, but at this stage I do not have the funds to replace the motor if it does decide that it's under too much pressure. pun intended.
I've been neglecting other parts of the car, and on a bigger scale, my life, that require my attention and funding, so for the moment, I will limit the power chase, since 200rwkw was my target anyway. I'm far from satisfied with the midrange performance, and of course I want more power (don't we all), but these things will have to wait.
