Ok, well, last night I threw in the sniffer and pushed my boost from 16psi to 18psi.

Car responded ok once the AFRs were set to 12:1, but I seem to be getting no where rom 6000rpm to 7000rpm (redline.

here are my maps.

Wonder why the car isn't really responding to anything above 6k?

Could it be the Ground out RB25 housing on the GT30, or could it be a blocked cat from running stupidly rich maos from the retarded tuner that tuned my car?

I'm thinking of dumping the cat and seeing what happens..

Anyone got any ideas?

Going to dyno the car on this setup, then set it back to 16psi and my other tune. If the power is less than a 5 - 10 rwkw diference I'm gonig to leave it at 16psi...

I had to pull out massive timing on the load row "11571" (thats as far down as the Powerfc goes)

my 25 is also the same, power drops off past 6 and never goes higher.

i think its normal and fairly good for the stock cams. i think youll find with bigger cams it wont. bass junky went from stock cams to tomie poncams (i think) and that cured his power drop off problem

Snip...

Having to pull out heaps of timing indicates that you have a backpressure problem.. Check blocked cat, Turbine A/R and all the usuals.

that sounds weird to me though... my car seems to pick up quite a bit from 6000 to 7000rpm... i also have a GT30R... doesnt really die much anywhere, just down low around 2000rpm, thats prob just coz of air fuel ratios down low.... but if others are having the same probs then i guess its a normal thing, jono how much of a difference is there in power loss up top? is it noticable or does it just stop making power after 6000rpm?

i agree with MattSR check out ur cat..

Well, I'm going to do all of that, but the turbine is a Standard Skyline Turbo Turbine ground out to fit the GT30. Do you think that could be too small?

I'd adjust those AFR's down low, you'll be suprised how much of a difference it will make.

As for the power, it doesn't die, it just stops making power after 6000rpm.

I'm going to drop that cat at some stage this week and see what the hell is going on. Might be blocked.

      No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.

      God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.

      Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
