u blowing much smoke?

maybe fuel is being starved in low range?

best bet would be to put it on a dyno and see how it goes

About time you got that thing on, if I had of known you guys where tinkering I would of come around. It will go much better if you use those HKS rubber clamps though.

i've noticed with the GUs that the guys have here is that the filter in the injecter pump keeps getting clogged up with shit and starving the fuel

better check that

I've found with my GU coil cab that the factory turbo takes a bit to get spooled up from a standing start. If you give it a bit of time it'll come on song for ya. You'll notice a fair difference just playing with the fuel and boost settings as well. :twisted:

The factory turbo is a pile of sh!t, they need mods before they will make good power without big EGTs.

A mate of mine has a factory intercooled GU ute
3 inch exhaust
Bigger :twisted: injectors
been retuned and a max of 14psi (factory is about 8psi )
He said thats the max u can go with out changing the intercooler etc.
It will easily cruise around town in 5th gear on 800rpm and pulls strong from 1500rpm :finger:
