Fitted an N75J I picked up this morning. Promptly jumped on the dyno and made a stately 103.9kw.
Left the dyno day feeling properly dejected. Got home and did a little reading to find out they're meant to be installed backwards to how the stock one sits.
Now have constant and addictive boost and much smoother delivery.
What a muppet haha
Did a very similar thing a few years back at a dyno day. Dyno'd my subaru and wondered why it made 110kwat. Scrathed my head, than realised as I had dual stage boost controller it was running low boost at 7psi, back on the dyno, flicked the switch 14psi and ~145kwat or whatever it made. That's more like it, haha.

Not today thought, but a summary of the past few weeks
Got some nice boost pipes and t-bolt clamps to replace the stock one, after that awkward incident happened last month
Relocated the ProVent
Mounting on the oil filter housing with some metal strapping
To free up the space which it originally take on the path of the stock intake hose(mounted on the battery tray)
Oh and upgraded the intake hose to the PD160 one
Made a cone in box using the K&N Apollo filter with some aluminium sheet from bunnings
Didn't have any 90 degree elbow handy, so used a section of a flexi pipe
Nice to have all the bolts around the filter, makes mounting stuff easier
Acceleration seems more responsive
Plasti dipped the Vortex front bumper valance and fitted to the car
Maybe I should get this colour coded?

Bought my mistress a few xmas presents

Seatsport fmic with bracket kit
Forge intercooler pipe
Forge 008 dv
Ecs magnetic sump plug
Coupled with the vibratechnics mounts that I already have, and the intercooler piping that I got from h100vw earlier this year, I think that I may have a busy weekend coming up.
