IHI VF34.

Update: still waiting for final tune, currently have car but driving around with a 3000rpm limiter which is boring as bat shit. Fingers crossed for tomorrow now, though I won't hold my breath.

^ What, you're really taking it over 3000rpm? You daredevil! Hope the final tune will be worth the money for you

Yay, car is done!!! Finally!

No improvements in peak power/torque figures but better mid-range and doesn't die off as quickly top-end.

External gate opens a bit in 1st and then fully in 2nd onwards, sounds insane.

Hopefully get some vids tomorrow.

Yes I am 100% sure he will soon look at ways to get more its like an disease or an drug you need more to get your fix.....been there done that....hmm maybe I`m still there in fact.... ops:
It almost happens to everyone who loves to modify their car ... including me ops: ... Let see after he gets use to the new found power ... maybe ... in 2 weeks time .. start to plan on .. let say .. 18G ... next step maybe FP Green ... then jump to GT35R ..

A couple of quick vids I made last night/today, nothing special as I don't have much time but gives you some idea. Sound of the gate is more brutal in person than the vid portrays....

Driveby: http://www.ozcarsightings.com/temp/gate1.wmv (sorry for long delay in the middle, I don't edit vids well)

In-car tunnel: http://www.ozcarsightings.com/temp/gate2.wmv

Will make more next week probably as I'm off work.
