Big G's VL Turbo

Post by Gareth »

Some who know me, know that I've had this for a while. I have been tinkering and improving it since purchase about 4 years ago. I have recently added a BOV and replaced all the daggy intake hoses with quality black ones.

Anyhow, I'm up to the point of tuning it, it is fitted with an old Wolf 3D EMS with which it never ran well, idle was always fat as hell and chugged at low throttle. The old owner shelled out tonnes of money for work that I can only describe as substandard, including the tune... I have attached it for anyone who's interested, I'd love any comments on it.

Edit : the file type isn't allowed by the forum (.wmf) any ideas moderators?

Nice wheels. Ever seen the bigger one's from the USA? Either 19 or 20 inch they ran them on the police car over there in think it was actually a VE statesman?

Sorry only 18". Not real pretty either they've lost the proportion a fair bit.

just be careful, if they are a "VE" type rim they will have the wrong diameter hole in the centre for earlier models!

I didn't even realise the chasers in the above pic was larger than 15 inch lol!
