@LazyZed Yeah good idea! combined shipping to Perth, West Australia would work out best as shipping is pretty hefty when coming our way.

Going to Rob's shop on Wednesday to get some new stuff installed on my new car. Im not exactly sure what will be waiting for me but i got some cool pictures over the last couple weeks from Rob.

Dont think there will be that much news on the TQ300 front. Even at our altitude +3500ft the unit created so many Amps that it overwhelmed by test 6K controller after 10 dyno pulls.

Ill update everyone on Wednesday after the installation

I would like to give a partial bad review for the Phantom. It made me, MADE ME, get my first speeding ticket in about a decade.
It sure is easy to go too fast down a long lonely highway when you get addicted to feeling that power surge.

Hopefully this doesn't happen to me. My goal is just to reach 0-60 the fastest on the freeway then back the f*** down after that and just cruise like a granny

It seems like issues with my other car (96 4Runner that I'm passing down to my little bro) have kept me from saving up for this as fast as I was hoping to, but in the next couple of paychecks I will be able to start getting impatient and troll the for sale section in the hopes of getting mine early

Update time!

Now that I'm rocking a 2015 BRZ instead of my 2013 FRS we did a fresh install from scratch! This latest kit that Rob has put together is the easiest yet(revision 2). The new ETX16 plus oddessy battery array is so simple to install and wire compared to the old 1.5 conversion...this alone is a huge leap forward. Rob and I took about a hour from start to finish while talking about all the new stuff and things to try in the future.

So what got installed?

Matte black TQ250 compressor housing with a new larger billet aluminum impeller. The billet wheel allows for Rob to expand the size and thus increase top end boost to where it would be with the TQ300, all while maintaining the boost response of the tq250. This new setup is completely experimental at the moment and obviously doing a large billet wheel like this does increase the cost a bit. No figures yet on price or availability but if this trial goes well it could be a option. For the future this electric motor is watercooled....the cooling itself is not up and running yet but is something that could be added in he future.

Right now I am running the standard off and on switch for 90 percent engagement while we wait for the procede unit to come in from Shiv.

The last things that was changed on this kit are some different connectors on the wiring harness we provide a better more reliable connection.

In the limited drivering I have done today I can say that this is by far the fastest spooling and smoothest boosting experience yet. The extra large billet wheel appears to be creating about 5 psi down low tappering to 2.9-2.5 between 7k and 7.5k. This should be enough for us to make about 220 who on 93.....Rob is looking to book a dyno session soon so we will have concrete numbers soon.

Other than above all I can say is it is damn nice to have this boost back, my car is alive again and its all thanks to Rob and Phantom making electric superchargers that deliver!
