Scotty I expect pix on that build thread.........

hahaha I've gotta play the waiting game for all this stuff to arrive Ants. Hopefully i will have Turbo, Manifold & Wastegate in my hands by Friday.

I ended up going with the 6466 Dual Ball Bearing with a .84 rear. Here is a Dyno graph that was posted in the Percision thread. This is from an SR22 stroker Impressive!!

bloody hell........that crazy hp

so I decided to call Sean...........

good news - car has been on the dyno for tune and went really well

bad news - car started to run really lean i.e. not enough fuel supply......................fcuk!

As soon as Sean noticed that he pulled the pin on the tuning (as you do)

He thinks that the following may be causing the problem (he has not had a chance to really look into it since)

1.fuel line may not be picking up fuel correclty to fuel pump or may not be tight enough

2. fuel pump may not be placed in the optimum spot to pick up fuel

3. fuel gauge maybe be inaccurate (highly unlikely)

anyways.......................therefore my saga continues............................ really depressed with all theses gremlins slowly cuting me up into a gizzillion peices >_<

You just got a new fuel pump did you not? that issue suggest to me an incorrect install somewhere, weather it be in the wiring or the physical position of the pump. Be glad he picked it up, a lot of people tune around it then you really get a gremlin....inside your engine hitting the top of the piston with a big hammer!

thats exactly what Sean said. It was going so well he was going to tune around but knew this was an issue to address now.

He even called Gav (would olf loved to hear that convo) to ask WTF going on???

Hopefully its just an easy fix like relocating the fuel pump

I think it will be an easy fix and as Bunta suggested appears to be a shit install of fuel pump :verymad:

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
