Hey Rob,

Yeah, Duncan is a genious, but you might have figured that out just by having a conversation with him. He's in the throes of building his own engine management computer, its nearly running, I'll think I'll stick with my microtech though, easier to tune.

I was racing at Calder on sunday and a concrete wall jumped out on the track and bit me on the ass, so the gem will be off the road for a while, new rear quarter and then another respray.

What does Duncan tutor you for? CAD or something isn't it?

yeah, he is a genuine fucking genious, and he tutors for EK501---design and drafting...1st year engineering.
pity bout your toy, but more to the point, where are you? i wanna try and meet as many gem nutters as possible, that are in the ballarat end of victoria. in case you havent checked up on my progress, have just started to prepare a lpg turbo for my te, so well we'll see how that goes...
from what duncan has told me, he wants to run about the same amount of boost as me, 8-10 psi[one day], and if he is building a ems to suit, then christ, he's probably too smart!!!lol
anyways, 'twas good of you to reply.
have fun fixin her.
rob.

I have had 4 different induction setups on my Gem so far, all with the same turbo and exhaust manifold. I was selling kits but I dont really have time anymore, but if you want, I can help you with advice on piecing one together.
