Based on this website i would assume i have a 0.9mm pill and need a 1.2mm?? Thoughts?

http://www.type-ra.com/subaru-forum/threads/boost-restrictor-pills.12995/

Nah, 1.2 would net lower boost (Those links are all for the earlier boost solenoid where it works backwards)

try grab a .8mm restrictor, might find you have a 1mm restrictor pill

These boost solenoids work by the less air they get, the more boost. as the way it's fed to the solenoid, The older stuff: it relied on the restrictor to be there to limit boost. so the less restriction = more boost.

Ay? The hubs bolted to the knuckle which keeps it 'solid'

The wheel nuts hold the rotor and wheel 'solid' against the hub

Ive pulled the rear axle/hub nut and theres a fair bit of slop now with wheel off. No funny noises when i turn the wheel by hand.

Seems a bit weird for wheel bearings to just go like that though ay.

Mines got a bit of a clunk i'm trying to sus out now too. Sounds like its either the shock knocking or a cv. Seems to have only really come about since doing the rear swaybar which was odd, have gone through and re torqued all the bolts that were undone for the sway. Still have a bit of a sneaking suspicion it may be somehow related to that though

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
