    One thing I do like about innovate is their ability to simulate a narrowband O2 output, great for deleting the OEM O2 and feeding that 0-1V simulated voltage back to the stock ECU. Great for PowerFC users, Nistune users that do not have the luxury of ingesting wideband 02 data. And before anyone says "yOu doN't nEEd O2 fEEdbACk iF yOUR tUNe is goOd" can GTFO.

    Anything but Innovate, their heater circuit strategy is terrible so you end up torching wideband sensors (not too sure if this is still the case, but those MTX-L ones were notorious for eating sensors). Or if you're already on the Haltech ecosystem, their canbus wideband kits are a no brainer. Sending data via canbus not a 0-5V range to the ECU not to mention if the sensor does die, just buy a Bosch LSU sensor and wire it back in, simples.

    please don't do this, worse advice! Just go for a normal drive, then eventually start to introduce load - don't be shy. Fuel Feed -> Fuel Filter -> Rail -> FPR -> (I think your car has an OEM dampener) -> Return to tank

    you would be with the boost coming in hard & fast, do you run a proper LSD in the back? If not, time to invest in a proper LSD. The viscous one is terrible for putting power down or doing anything motorsport related.
  5. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    You'll find motors that foul plugs quickly aren't because of running rich on boost but rather the rest of the MAP (vacuum to atmospheric) is garbage and/or the O2 feedback strategy is either disabled or is utter horse shit. If you're not cruising and idling at stoich, but rather rich, you'll be going through spark plugs faster.

    Put a wideband O2 on your car, extremely valuable data. Stops the guessing & assumptions.
  7. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    Dead stock tune, if you slap a wideband O2 on them, you'll see it hits high 10s. Black smoke is fine, keeps things cool.
  8. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    ever seen a stock Evo with a 4G63T and just a high flow cat & cat back on boost? It's a smoke screen!

    Hence they rather copy / paste a tune with similar mods from a previous car as a base, not to mention all the tables are scaled how the tuner likes it. And in the odd event, the car has like for like mods as the file they have on hand, even better! Means less work. I once did 2x S15s with GTX2867R turbos, same 980cc injectors, one had Procams & broken VTC, one had Poncams and working VTC. Did I start from scratch? hell no.
  10. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    Why? They will still charge you for a full tune.
  11. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    Yes, here's a scenario. Say your original tune by Tuner A has been done, with the wrong injector data, wrong sensor scaling, base timing not synced properly. Tuner B then hops on, fixes up the cock ups and now realises the fuel table & timing tables are pretty much invalid. Easier for them to copy and paste a known working tune from a similar car they've done in the past with similar mods, then tune/calibrate accordingly

    I am, however I "believe" (not 100% sure) that the RB25 returns the turbo water line there too, that branch then flows into the heater core. I've had it plumbed like than before with the old motor, and also this motor (same turbo) and it hasn't seized yet lol. And yes, using that RB26 fitting seems very counter intuitive as you're going opposite to the flow. However you would assume there's higher pressure coming out of the turbo due to the pipe size, heat etc. I might need to revisit the service manual.
  13. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    Like all the AMGs around where I live, 100k+ car, Bing Bong tyres on them.

    Anyone seen my rich long lost biological parents? If so, tell them I wouldn't mind my mortgage paid off and a M3 Wagon as a way to ask for forgiveness 🤣 I'll even give, in return a R33 Skyline (that may or may not work).
  15. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    Probably telling you to get BKR6ES Easier to get BCPR6ES or 7 is you're making moderate power. Been using them for years in my own car, other people's cars. I might be wrong, however those cars work well and have no issues. As a matter of fact, a S15 I helped build and tune did a 1m46s at SMSP last night on sticky street tyres.

    Had a brief spare 10 mins spare in my life, went to compress up the coolant system (thanks to my mates gear) and found the leak pretty quick. It's that stupid short joiner between the block and coolant branch that goes to the turbo return. So I'm going to simplify that area and use a R33 RB26 piece, which does the same thing without the unnecessary complications And yeah before someone goes why don't you buy/install the Boost Doc heater line kit, yeah cost perspective it's like 5x the price of buying new hoses and a new OEM fitting. If the hoses lasted 28 years, then I'm sure brand new OEM ones will do another 28 years 🥲 Will also delete the hardlines that runs underneath the plenum and simplify that too. It has a RB26 so there are a few branches that are blocked off as the plenum doesn't need those hoses and not to mention the car doesn't run a heat and oil/water exchanger anymore.

    98RON for 199.9c, going to be as cheap as it gets for a while I think. Yep, 118L into the Tiguan and 3x jerry cans lol.
  18. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    But but but... It's when I know it's time to change gears or reached my desired max speed in 4th (as I'm still using the factory dash lol).
  19. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    Yeah sometimes boring is what is needed, so my bank account doesn't bleed from stupid repairs and my head won't hurt from arguing with stupid people at VW head office. In other news, Andy from Adaptronic / Haltech explains the MAP Prediction and Fuel Film / Pooling in detail. Makes much more sense now and it's good to know it takes the higher value out of the two fuel tables not just the MAP prediction table during a transient event. I was a bit concerned it would take that off boost value on the table when the car is on song.
  20. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    Nice bit of kit, if that existed before I would have done the same.
  21. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    Has crossed my mind, just the styling I'm not keen on. The front grill is like a large grater lol
  22. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    Lol... Very Honda of you.
  23. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    cooling looks good now!
  24. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    100% Hence with these shit box RB motors, you need to vent the crank case by venting the sump into a catch can and also draining back to it. I've done just that, and have not had any oiling issues on the track since.
  25. Dose Pipe Sutututu
    Another question, is that hose even big enough? Not sure if that's a built motor, running big boost, but if so it's going to breathe heavily. There's a reason you see many modern RBs with huge catch cans, returned back to the sump (heavy breathing and oil buildup in the head, etc.)
