Symptoms were bank running too lean etc...

Location: An island off southern Tasmania.		Running lean melts the edges of your pistons.

Your problem will be that you need a larger 7th injector fitted instead of the stock one.

Go to any tuning place, pay about $120 and get one twice the flow.


Takes 15 minutes to fit.

Then you can see a bit more power and a retune of the SMT6.

Easily another 7-10 kw at the wheels.

I went from 184kw to 193kw atw without doing anything else.

Location: Brisbane,qld		would have thought TMR would have sorted that out back when they were developing it, how could they miss that? you dont wack a supercharger on and not tune it correctly, especially when your doing 20 of them and giving a warranty?????????????

sprintex did the tuning on their inhouse 380, not TMR.

Location: NEWPORT QLD		Recently had my Injector seals done as an addition to the 90K service due to Lean idle CEL's.

Sadly didn't fix the still ongoing problem, which is written up in the LPG thread
