Awesome as always rob keep up the good work lad
Cheers lads.Brilliant stuff m8 ,what a car !
I find the heads on these quite noisey anyway rob so I wouldn't worry too much.
Might not be helped by our oil feeds to turbo. ESP on idle.
You'd recomend the Plx then?
One thing I'm wary of with tuning mine on the road is the unreliable AFRs.
Was going to just tune it rich until I could find a dyno but if these are cheap.
On the subject of plx, what do you guys think of the plx kiwi wifi/bluetooth devices connected to a smartphone/tablet.
Sorry to sound a bit ignorant, I've no been on the forum properly in a while.. So this thing works and you have MOT? Haha
Here is more info:Yeah I think your probably right on the money there mate, could fill it with 20 w50 lol that would probably shut it up. I can live with it, its not BAD bad but compared to a stock b18c its annoying.
PLX is far more responsive than the aem mate. It has some nice features too and the OLED display is very nice to look at. When you come off throttle it recognises theres no fuel and says air, graph view is good but quite small to see when driving. Sensor health check and response time check also handy. Theres other features like alarms etc but I haven't tried them. Given its more or less the same money as the aem 30-4110 that uses the same sensor its a million times better.
Havent seen this mate but I will check it out.
Sounds like a sound investment, does it datalog?
Although you can do this through the s300.
I don't think it does man. No way of recording anything as far as I can see. Maybe through the apps.
What size did you get? 205 50 15 ? I'm looking at them. I'm running ad08 but 195. Hopefully the 205 will help with tractionAlso worth mentioning... Swapped the tyres front to back so running the 595 rs-r up front now. Very impressed for the money. Not quite as good as the ad08 but still working very well.
205 45 16 mate, tried ad08r and 595 rs-r. For about half the money the federal definitely isn't half the tyre, its capable in the dry and more or less the same in the wet. Just not quite as good as the advan.
On this not tho mate... An engineering guru and serious car enthusiast I know shot me down for making the same point you did. His comments.... Friction is not dependant on surface area, a wider tyre will handle heat better but this won't equate to more grip in small amounts. As per I thought I knew better so borrowed a pair of wheels with 225 tyres and... no different. Still lit them up just as easily.
