I hear your pain, damn pinging, i agree that winding back the timing really kills performance and makes it less responsive down low, timing makes huge difference to power output, its frustrating because you know there is so much potential left but the detonation gets in the way. By trying a colder plug what does this do? Since your sucking through the blower can you maybe get away with a low pressure pump, eg the best w/wiper motor you can find and use a fine jet, if been thinking that spray bottles (garden/hair) manage to atomise the water fairly well and they wouldnt have very much pressure i wouldnt have thought. May be worth a try? Good luck with it im keen to see how you go!

Just cut half a coil out of them and see how it sits, if its not enough cut another half and that should be plenty, only thing that pisses you off is having to be carefull were you jack the car from or the springs can fall loose and not locate properally. If your carefull you shouldnt have any problems, as long as there is adequate suspension travel. Ive cut the king springs in mine and no problem except it dosnt have enough suspension travel, personally i thought the king springs i got, (lowest heavy duty for stanza) were way too small and soft, they felt like standard, go the gemi springs!

oh ok thanks dude i totally missed that, seems like itd be cheaper to buy the whole kit than just a pump! If it was a draw through setup id be laughing ive heard you can easilly setup a system spraying into the compressor nut using a w/washer motor and small jet, but my stupid intercooler would get in the way, ive dialled in more fuel and added a bit of timing, goes better now!

Why not to use 20 year old retreads if your going to push it, the tyre exploded into shreds on me mid way through a 2nd gear drifty and took out my rear quarter, what bad luck! Heres the pics,

well that is an interesting idea, well to be honest i bet your carby currently would poo all over my injection, my car won't idle by itself for more than a minute before mysteriously going rich and stalling, it has a massive flat spot for the first 1/8th throttle and pigroots when cruising at 60kms in 5th, it leaves a lot to be desired, i can at least say full throttle/boost is fine, except for detonation which led to me removing timing/performance. Thats what you get when you leave your car with a bunch of hobbos who promise results then proceed to gyp you, hell what am i complaining for $1600 to wire 4 wires for my oxy sensor and wire in a thermo relay and spend an hour or 2 on the dyno is a bargain . Especially when they spin #### and say it maxed at 100rwkw/8psi because the 440cc injectors and new vlturbo pump are out of flow, usless monkeys had me set at 15psi base pressure Oh and they happened to have a set of reco 550cc injectors sitting there that would be PERFECT! pm if you want to no where not to go!!!!! But enough whinging.
The pump is from here, all looks really proffesional!
