I had my stagea lock on me the other night. Keys were in the car, engine was running, sounds were on... I had just jumped out because the windscreen rubber had come off. Lucky my phone was my pocket or I woulda been screwed!

2g? Faaaarken hel. Ha I only paid 3500 for the car. Ill be getting that stuff later but winding up the boost is cheap for the meantime. 4psi is a bit of a joke. I just got a free boost tap so was gonna wind the crap out of it but seems like it aint that simple. I think ill just bypass the solinoid and run 10 psi or maybe bit less. And yea Kiwi ill get a a/f ratio guage to keep an eye on it. But thanks guys at least now I know what the all shuddering is - too much boost! What about the clunking from the diff?? I read somewhere on here that the rear diff locks itself or something when you take out the 4wd fuses? Anyone know if thats true?

Oh really, ratshit. This is going to sound like 21 questions but... is there anyway i can run more than 10 psi or will I have to wiat untill Ive done the exhaust. Do you usually have to uprade the afm to run high boost? And what would you recommend replacing the afm with, whats a common upgrade?

Standard turbo, standard, exhaust, standard i/c. Also doesnt have a BOV. Uness it has a standard one, but ive never heard it. How can I fix any of these things?

I have a 97 RB25DET Auto Stagea. The engine is completely stadard at mo and its running 4psi boost. I just put a boost tap on yesterday, a real simple one that just bleeds pressure to atmosphere, and wound it up to 10psi. It boosts at 10 then spikes to about 13 just before changing gear, then settles back down to 10 in the next gear. I can hear a fluttering sound coming from the engine bay which I assume is just the tap, but I dont know why its fluttering?? But the main problem is when its doing this the whole car judders as if its trying to break traction, but its not. Its pretty bad and it never did this before, and doesnt do it when i wind the boost back down. Also when it changes into second it looses power. The boost gauge still reads 10 but it definatly doesnt feel like it. And at slow speed there was some pretty funky sounds and clunks coming from what feels like the diff. These also go away when I wind the boost back down. Anyone know what goin on???
