Mine hits around half way when on boost on the oil temp gauge. Looked at youtube vids and it seems right.

Timed it with dynolicious and its faster from 0-60. Feels vicious and traction control light is flashing alot.....

Set it at 30 meth additive atm but have not done any logs yet as too much traffic for a 3rd gear run...

One question - I am having trouble removing the meth line from the injector without using a fair bit of force - any tips?

Hoping to get my N55 mids installed this arvo too

Regarding the meth line make sure you push the metal ring in then tug on it with some force.
Bet you can't wait to get back to the track now Gumball. When are we going?

So went testing tonight and really the extra Power I felt yesterday dd not seem to be there. Really thought i had an extra 40kw yesterday but frig it was all in my head...

The meth was going to full not halfway and boost was only 13psi. Did a couple of logs and this was confirmed.

Checked the flow in 7/5 mode and all good. Took it out for another run and still 13psi.... The low washer light came on so I knew meth was flowing fine so I refilled it. Did not last long...

Looking at settings and realized my jb4 firmware was ancient. Came home and read the instructions again and it said I needed firmware 20/7/11 and I had 19/6...

Downloaded the latest hex and my pos laptop bosd... Rebooted and eventually updated the firmware.

Straight away I realised the car was now stupid fast - its pulling like crazy up top and hitting 16 psi and meth flow is perfect. Tried to do some logs but again my pos laptop bsod'd...

Learnt 2 things tonight:
Check the bloody firmware
And
It's time for a new laptop...

Glad it worked out for you Gumball.
I also ran a log today on my way home. Compare your log and it should look like this one if everything is running well.
