Yea so happy its going again.

At the moment it feels the same as before.

Im so stoked about having a massive intercooler and 600hp capable turbos and manual with lsd and twin plate clutch!

I haven't really spent much time driving it in the 2-3 years of ownership.

This year I will be in all the drags.

$$$ There's a lot of money invested in that sentence right there$$!!

I've been holding off on turbos for years waiting to see the washup between the VTT and RB's (both turned out to be duds) and now other newer offerings such as Hexons. In addition to the hexons RB and VTT both have new exciting turbo setups also... So hopefully I will have some upgraded turbos and a twin plate in the future!

Hexons seem to be the go lately.

Vtt new manifold and turbo would be awesome but I cant afford another 10-15k if the engine goes. Or keen to spend 3-4k on fuel upgrades.

About to go for a drive in my 16 psi bmw, better then my Hilux.

Spent $22000 odd thousand on it.

Clutch and hexons will make a very fun car.

I'm loving driving this car, even on low boost.

These days if you buy one for say $30k and chuck 20k at it you get a pretty damn quick comfortable street car!

Great BFYB with this platform, hopefully we start to see more modified N54's here in Australia as the prices of these cars have diluted to more affordable levels over the past few years and lots of mods are available on the marketplace to make reliable decent power!

11.5@129mph or bust.

On a serious note I wouldn't worry about your ET. It's your mph that will show your real power.

I have a feeling my cats are clogged.

I've had a stumble since I got the car and still do at 1400rpm.

So I'm going to cut the cats out, smash the screen out then weld them back in.

I just did this on my stihl 2 stroke blower and it goes harder now.

If it solves the problem ill weld some new cats in later.
