I love the boat - I guess it was obviously cheaper to import from the US rather than buy something here.Quote:

Cheaper to import, pain in the gluteus maximus dealing with Australian Customs, it took nine months from the initial talks with Scott in the US to getting the boat home from the Port Botany.Quote:

Good to hear.
But 6.5psi is pretty low. Can you wind that up or is the wastegate arm fixed?
Listen to Dougal, close the waste gate and turn the screw LOLQuote:

The same thing happened in first and second gear.Quote:

You won't need to alter the fuelling to get more boost, just the wastegate arm. More boost will lower your EGT's too.Quote:

Is this the wastegate arm that I have to modifyQuote:

I saw somewhere else in the forum to cut the bar, and add an adjustable section.
All we have done at this time is take the 4BD1 out of the donor Landie, and transplant it into the Rangie we then added the turbo, no adjustments have been made at this time to the fuel mixture, I thought I would play with those settings after the exhaust system was done.
Before I forget if A is the fuel adjust, what is B and C for?
