Hi people, just need some input. Have been tuning my pfc for the last coulpe of days, have a RB25DET with GT2530 running at 1bar with std AFM and Injectors, seems that the max load scale has dropped from 15 down to 17 one the same boost? as I have been advancing the time in stages, watching for knock. I was under the impression that the load is relative to boost? 0 is load cell 9 on my setup and 15 was 14.7psi. I feel the engine is making more power with the time that I have tuned in which has a higher air flow which has brought it to load cell 17 but how can there be more load with the same boost? :laugh:

Second Q's, I have been playing with the total advance timming to full load at say 4000rpm on 1bar, My timming is 14deg at that point, I have tired 15deg which it will knock at 88, having looked at some base maps of a RB25DET at the same points the std ecu runs like 21deg? Fuel ratio is spot on for all points (11.7 on 1bar all the way to red) I have a FMIC (PWR), any help is greatly apprreciated. :laugh:

if you increase boost pressure, as long as you are in effiency zone of the compressor wheel (the compressor map will tell the effiency zone) then it will bring more air into the system. so by adding more boost, it forces in more air. this in turn is shown via the airflow meter signal.

there is always more air coming into the sytem, despite pressure being fixed.

this is usually why map sensor setups are sucky with load points, as one boost hits target they dont show any more into coming into the system, even though more is coming in, but pressure is the same

    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
