It's been interesting to see that the coolant temp gets up quickly but oil temp takes a good 10mns or so longer to get up to 100degrees. Once warm it stays pretty warm even when shut off for an hour or so.

Haven't tried the 0-100 yet, but soon
Interesting info. So I guess you’d wait the 10 minutes for the oil to get to temp before trying the 0-100 ;)

Interesting. What sort of cost is there in flashing the cluster?

I got flashbox from him from his ebay store. $190 all up with him covering express postage both ways .

I also got the Performance menu enabled while in Ballarat this week. Thanks for sharing.

Yes that was added also. To be accuratish, it needs to be reset when your oil is changed as it works off kms travelled since reset (something along those lines).

Removed the Walkinshaw Engine covers as I cracked them by overtightened the bolts. So I decided to remove the Mechanical Sound Enhancer to slightly neaten up the engine bay.

I am actually thinking of ditching my MSE. I just looks like weird cheap tube sitting there...

I drove around for a week with it disconnected to see if I would miss the in cabin intake sound, but I didn't. Cabin is a little quiter when cruising & light throttle overtaking and when WOT, I hear the exhaust note more :)
