purple5ive: Thanks Steve. Yes I took it back to the same place for the power tune. mr2pod: Thanks Scott. I'm sure when you're in Melbourne both mine and my brother's car will be on the road  squigg: I'm looking forward to seeing it man. When do you expect to have the engine in the car? evl_132: Thanks Adrian. Its up and running now, so you'll get to see it on Saturday if you're not working. that 2 seater guy: Thanks for the kind words man. Reading your modification list it seems like you are pretty much there in terms of your upgrades! MRGen3Turbo: Thanks Nick! I am pretty pumped about it. Now its time for you to get your car tuned. I want to see how much my old BLITZ K1-380V makes on your setup lmt: Thanks Luan. It has been a long time since we've seen each other's car. How's yours going? stuka: I'm very pleased with the result Pat. Thanks man. kameleon: You were able to tell just by hearing it while you were inside your place? Got skills yo!

Keep me posted if you can still get brand new ones from Power Enterprise. However I remember reading a few years ago they stopped making them.
No worries Darren..i'm happy with the results u got,so now i'm hoping that the PE1919T is still available..cos i'm tempted to get one myself hehe will let u know when i get some pricing.

stuka: I'll be dropping by at Ian's on Saturday to see the progress on yours and my brother's car. I bet you're really looking forward to getting it back! Next step of upgrades (in order) are: - Wheels - Brakes - Sort out my suspension and install my RCA's i got from Nick ages ago - Install my Calidina intake manifold - Water to air intercooler - Ganador mirrors - Respray Well that's the plan

Sweet result darren. Looks like that's the target power range for the bolt on turbo kits with built motors!

dylmrt: Thanks Dylan  . I think I might be able to get a little bit more out of it but not much more, maybe a max of 10rwkw or do you think I'm dreaming? I was only running 1.2 bar, no adjustments were made to the cam gears, no fan directed to intercooler and tuned on a 25 degree day. Furthermore the tuner was pressed for time so there was virtually no cool down between runs. Yeah I remember reading somewhere they discontinued this turbo years ago. Adrian (greddy_es) said he wants one.

another 10rwkw is not out of the question, but really if its a safe tune, i'd be happy with that kinda result from that kinda turbo. I ran the k1 at 21psi boost and it really struggled to make any more power, so i dropped it back down to 18psi back in the day just as the day to day tune.
more than enough power to be very fun!
