    there really wasn't much difference at all between tunes. We should however test it out on a dry track where we can both get some traction

    Whoops - brainfart (associated you with Tim hence the GIAC)

    I was hoping to do the dry test at The Island where we could have used the front straight for some in gear tests

    well my PIARC membership and CAMS licence aren't going anywhere fast (not just because I drive a diesel, haa haaa) so we have plenty of time to do it

    Yes, it has to be done - to be thoroughly conclusive
    And then repeated at different tracks for verification

    multiple times at every track, over an extended period of laps. As the Irish say "to be sure to be sure"

    interesting, transporter.....

    one connection i want to "protect" is the MAP sensor in the SMIC... since i did the "wheel arch vent" mod, it does get a little dirty down there, over time.

    dont laugh!

    So.. I finally did my Cage MOD on the 2.5 T.4.

    I ended up with a friggin' amazon.com voucher after Christmas, but had no idea what to buy. I pretty quick tried to get some stabilant21, but OMG it is soooo complicated to order that stuff somewhere to get it send to oz. So many sites and 'specialists' praise that stuff, but their dealer network is so small and nobody wants to post overseas, that you have to wonder how they run their business.

    Anyway, after more research I found another product called DeoxIT-D it was just US$15 posted to OZ and it is awesome! Idling it much improved, much much more smoother and not so bumpy as before. It also goes much easier through the rev-range and blablabla. We all know what the cage mod does....

    Anyway. This product (same as stabilant21) doesn't protect the MAF sensor, but enhances the conductivity. ...so I tend to believe now that the old 'protection' story is an urban myth????!?!??
