hi all recently got a pulsar and had to put a new engine in it also switched to a mines ecu. After doing so my car is going clean off the standard boost gauge. I am considering doing the one bar loop but is that a bad decision since its already going clean off that scale? Or do i not pay attention to the standard gauge and just get my after market one? any help is much appreciated :)
just incase it makes any difference im running a dakar top mount, a t28 turbo , blitz induction kit with a forge dumpvalve and my pistons are bigger than standard but i cant remember exactly what size they were.
Thanks Alan:doh:

So is it an ARC one?

Well on the other hand i have heard that there might be a few Different Top mount Inter coolers.
Maybe we should do a thread on what types there are...

Dakar eddition = myth
HKS eddition = myth
Nismo eddition = real
Autech eddition = real

I'm happy to be proven wrong.

The only top mount intercooler i know of is the Calsonic and the ARC one.
Not sure what the NME Cars used...

lol hes winding you up matey

arc is 14 row bar cooler
there is also a german one which is similar to arc which is also 14 row

basically if it has calsonic on it then its stock, unless someones fitted one off a transit van or something then yours is deffo not an upgrade

In fairness, if you'd read the specifications in the FAQs section you'd know:

Misnomers:

"DAKAR" - the name Dakar is sometimes used (mainly in UK) in reference to the RB,
but that name DOES NOT appear in any official texts or anywhere on the cars,
and the car was never entered in the famous rally by that name.
IF ANYONE CAN PROVIDE ANY INFO/EVIDENCE TO PROVE OTHERWISE PLEASE LET US KNOW.

"HKS" - Contrary to some links on the 'net - there was never an HKS version (or HKS promo car).

dont worry about it fella.....its this forum banter thing just take it in your stride but does pay to do some searching yourself before posting stuff, think yourself lucky that one of the old skool mob never cottoned on to it as their quite brutal with taking the piss with newbies lol

i saw your thread on that car and tbh i think all you have there is a completely stock car with a few bits added on......reciepts or not i would take it with a pinch of salt as to what its got and hasnt got and the dubious power it made.

start from scratch (build your engine up) rip the endcase off the box whilst its out and take a pic of gearset and i or someone else will tell you if its a quaife or not (which i doubt) if not but its all in good nick then just bolt it back on again, at least that way youll know what youve got or havent got
