that probably explains why you thought you were starting to run a little lean getting a little extra air sucking in through the booster must have stuffed diaphram

yeah, certainly explains it's tendancy to want to stall when coming to a stop. to much uncontrolled air entering the manifold that the IAC can't control.

my new tail lights just arrived this morning:)

fitted my new tail lights last night while i was burning a few pork ribs on the BBQ. bought a 2nd hand lappy off trademe this morning so that'll be dedicated to tuning stuff etc for the car. only ever seen these type of tail lights on one other VN (and i've never seen it again) so they will be kinda unique here in NZ


least the booster gave up before you put that snail under the bonnet could of been messy you find another booster yet .

yeah. happy it happened now rather then when i was doing something silly:D

guy at work has a deregistered VN that he wants to sell. it's another V6 5speed:yeah: think maybe i get that for spares just that the missus will jump through hoops if i bring another car home

comes with XP but i'll put 98 on it and then were on our way. will need to make daignostic cable to do some quick tuning on the VN as it is and then the fun begins.

having a play on the dyno sim. trying different cams with a blower. didn't see any that made more power then the stock cam. need to find some genuine blower cams to see how they go
