Annoying Misfire! Rb25det!

Before I begin, I'll just say that I've searched the forums all over the net for days now, and have addressed all the possible issues that might cause this, and still no luck. I've tried swapping coils, gapping the plugs tighter, hardwired the coilpacks, replacing the ignitor, added HKS Twin Power Ignition DLI, looked for boost leaks, and the list goes on and on....NO LUCK! If I run more than 21psi, I get a misfire, less and it's ok. What else could this possibly be? The mods on the car are as follows...GT35R w/Tial 38mm WG, built shortblock, Nismo AFPR, Walbro 255 FP (Hardwired), Nismo 550's, AEM EMS dynotuned. The car has a PERFECT tune in it across the board. It's running 11.6 A/F at WOT, and the partial throttle is perfect. It's also running speed density, so no more MAF in the car. It has 3.5 bar AEM sensor, with IAT sensor. The car is making good power, right at 450whp on 22psi with pump gas (93 octane in the US). I'm not sure what else to do. Are the stock coils up to the task of 21+psi? Are splitfires any better for sustaining higher boost? What else could possibly cause a misfire like this? I've even put C16 race fuel in the car, as a shot in the dark, to see if it would smooth it out, but still nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I know this may sound dumb but mine had a similar problem. Check ur cranck angle sensor. If it in the middle or is it set to devance. Mine was on devance and was doing the whole missfire thing. Move it to advance and it was fine

Clockwise=Devance

Anticlockwise=Advance

Just though id let u know. C how u go

on another note similar to carl h's you dont have your breathers returned into your instake like std do you? If there is any oil there it will be returning back into your intake possibly causing a miss.

      The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.

      When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.

      Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.

      This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.

      Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
