Ive got a R32 GTR and ive taken out the ristrictor in the hose that goes to the boost controller solaniod but i was also told to join those 2 hoses together to get 15psi.. It works BUT like at 6000rpm its sometimes starts to make a limiter noise. could some one help me because my car is GOIN NUTS ON 15PSI :O

I was only running about 8-9psi before but now that little bit extra is awesome.

DO GTRS have a boost cut defender?

ANYONE?

Im only new to the forum so this is a pic of my car.

explain exactly what happens at this 6000rpm mark.

does it cut the power completely.. like is it violent?

is it like a rev limiter where it stutters and kinda back fires?

doest it keep reving up but kinda misses?

what happens to the boost gauge when this "CUT" happens? still sit at 15 or drop?

with more description and those answered, people can give you a better response as to what the problem is.

at the moment it could be..

AFM max

spark blowing out due to excess boost.

coil packs arc'ing out

etc...

I think that the fact that you now have about 2 x the boost you had before, you are blowing out the spark.

there are a few things you can try which will cost you nothing but some of your time.

1.) take out your spark plugs and gap them down to 0.8mm.

if they already are, drop them back to 0.7mm.

2.) with some electrical tape, tape up the coil packs. there is a guide on this in the maintenance section of these forums.

I did the above 2 points 2 weeks ago and my car revs out smoothly now.

mine is an rb20 but same edal.

runs a little more boost than stock.

I suggest you try the 2 things above as they are free and MAY fix the issue.

If you are in Sydney, I can help you do it if you like.

if they are anything like GTST's then yes they do.

Write it out 20 times..........

Hope you learnt a lesson, next time it will be detention for you

:O cheers :P

if you are running 15psi and stock ecu you will be encountering the STOCK EXCESS AIRFLOW protection. turn the boost down and try again, i would suggest around 10psi at the most. this should work around the excess airflow protection

    • New euro in the house for the wifey. Had to make sure it was good enough that I wouldn't mind driving it when needed. Introducing the 2021 JCW flamin mongrelryman. B48 2.0T 225kw 450nm 8spd AWD 0-100 in 5.1. 1/4 mile in the mid to high 13's. Not bad. It's a little animal on take off and zippy AF around town. She loves the thing and secretly so do I. Just got to pray to BMW Jesus that it doesn't do too many BMW things. Previous owner looked after it like a newborn. It's, I mean was absolutely unmarked and spotless.     360mm factory rotors with cooling ducts. Wonder if they'll stand up to track abuse...
    • It will happen, give it time. 🫢
    • Decent result Greg, sounds tuff AF👍   When is the Whipple or procharger getting fitted?😉
    • Oh there's no way in hell I'm doing it to modern cars. This was on some lancer shit box decades ago with silly gauges that started beeping when the voltage was outside of operating range
    • Not just stop start. New modern cars with their stupid "smart" alternators. Even funnier is watching cars when you drop them into eco mode. A lot of them don't crank the alternator up to full charge for very long at all. EVs and how they charge their 12V lead acid battery is even worse! Also, you should never disconnect the battery, on a running car. The voltage spikes can break things. Basically while it's a "battery" it is also considered a "Capacitor" within the charging system, and helps to keep those spikes non existent. Yay for alternators being inductive.
