Nothing... it just seems to me that the twintake is very faffy and over complicated.... lots of interconnecting parts. (im not knocking its performance, as i dont have any evidence for or against)

....I think that the ITG has more interconnecting parts but both the ITG and Twintake (and Evoms) have been shown to add significant power gains regardless of their number of components. Btw, the Jubilee clips which Forge supply with the Twintake are stainless steel (and there are nowhere near 36!).

Full tail light rings..... not been right for 2 year!

How hard was it to do the full ring rear light mod?

That looks better Rich

Just done some very rough logging.... is 1.4bar normal for a stage 1 ED30?

damoegan · January 09, 2013, 05:01:20 PM

I always thought that stage 1 was ~1.1bar..

And stage 2/2+ 1.4/1.4bar+

Hedge · January 09, 2013, 05:14:30 PM

It depends on how long it holds it for.

Stage 2 and 2+ achieve greater ponies because they hold boost and subsequently torque further up the rev range.
As you have made the car breathe (intake, zorst) better so it can do this and also supply more fuel (hpfp).

See tuning made simples.

No zorst ian...

Shorty · January 09, 2013, 06:18:17 PM

What was it peaking and holding? Sounds alot for stage 1 but then it might flash 1.4 and hold less..

I've seen most stage 2+ cars hold 1.5 bar?

rich83 · January 09, 2013, 06:24:00 PM

1.4 peak (2460mb as recorded by vcds)

I didnt get a good "in gear" long pull to gauge what it was holding at. Its a 2 man job really.

Yeah can be tricky, if you get a good peice of empty road then it's not too bad. If you do a log then do it in 3rd from low down, and turn 'boost' on too for faster logging. :)
