What have you done to your car today?

Pumped up my tires; they were down to 28psi!

Also, received the first of two suction camera mounts which I got for about $4 each off ebay (cos I\'m too cheap to buy a go pro!). Just tried the suction cup against the fridge, pretty damn impressive! Hope to do some nice driving vids with them.

Not my car, but installed a new headunit into an 02 Forester today. Replaced the factory Subaru unit. Pretty easy swap out, only PITA moment was when the aerial cable wasn\'t long enough, so had to pull the passenger carpet up, and re-route the cable up and under the dash instead of under the carpet. Other than that.. easy peasy, using a Subaru wiring harness adaptor.

Did some DIY tuning on my car today with my temporary vf36p20 turbo, it was running into the low 10:1 AFR\'s at WOT so I leaned it out a bit up top.

Not too sure if the AFR\'s are ok coming on boost, between 13.5:1 and 11:1, but I run a G4 knock link and haven\'t seen any knock so I guess its all good.

Just wanted to see the difference between my modified VF turbo and a factory one before I go to twin scroll with the modified one. Still trying to figure out how I want it to perform.

My modified one was lacking a little response down low but pulled hard to redline, but the vf36p20 has the response I like but falls off up top. Im hoping twin scroll on my modified turbo will get the best of both.

Put a little garden sprinkler valve thing on boost gauge hose this arvo, actually works to stop the vibratey/rattling needle thing! 50c well spent.

Oh and drove it to hamner springs, all the suspension stuff absolutely comes alive once you\'re out of town and on some flowing roads for sure, AND got to pop some flames while passing campervans haha. Bwaaaaarp *BANG* WELCOME TO NZ 100% PURE

Exactly like mine lol! Since friday did plugs, removed assorted bits to gain access to knock sensor. Removed speedo cluster in order to remove a " slow down " sticker that ex owner stuck into cluster which i found was hidin the airbag light! And bulb removed from abs dash light! Oh no! Time to see if the lights go on and off when car runs later on in the day. I see more problems on the way!!! >:( >:(

      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
