Autocal showed up today. Should be good to go tomorrow night for the tune.

And just some random shots of the headers. Pacemaker forgot to send the loom for the left hand side so i can't start it yet!

New exhaust vid. Really happy with the result. Has a excellent note and has taken out the bit of a boom at 2000 rpm it had with just the catback, well worth the $$$ and i give the system a big thumbs up!

Woohoo, intake is on and car has it's first tune in! I'll be doing quite a bit of driving and data logging over the next few days to finalize the tune so should be fun.
Here's a pic of the intake.

And here's the fill panel. Covers up the hole left by the airbox nicely!

And just a couple of crappy shots of the tuning process!

Autocal in action!

Taking it for it's first run post tune tomorrow so we'll see how it goes. Auto has been tuned so there is now no first gear (waaaay too short to begin with) and 6th gear has been turned off in power mode, should be good!

Looks great mate, how's the OTR going?

The exhaust looks sweet, what size are the tips on the rear mufflers? Either they are bigger or the Calais have smaller cut-outs?

 

[Lumps of cheese]

Otr is good. Will get a dyno run down the track. The tips are double skin so they appear bigger.

yea i wonder what numbers your pulling. i'd put my ute up as a thread but cant work out how to pics in the thread lol i'll do it soon hopefully.

so is the double skin normal for the 2.5" or special order?

 

[Lumps of cheese]

Nah it's just standard with the kpm systems.
I use photobucket to upload my pics, is quite easy to use. Hopefully pull around the 270rwkw with what i've done so far.

I doubt you will hit 270 , maybe if u had 3" instead of 2.5", but you shouldn't be to far away from 270 mark anyway.
nice car by the way

Cheers, yeah it's a long shot but we'll see what happens. Dyno figures are a bit misleading sometimes too because they all seem to be different
