LOL that is funnnny!

I think loose it. Because really what kind of quality are you going to get out of it, its a race car... so no sound deadening = no sound quality, noisy exaust and all that crap, so once again you wont hear it properly...

There is plenty of sound deadening and the exhaust isn't noisy.

Na keep the stereo....use your choice of tunes as strategy and phsyc out the other racers :)

seriously though, Is a couple of kilos going to effect a sedan? If it was a fuel car etc maybe a couple of kilos would be worth it. On the issue of personnel stereos that use ear buds they are proven to damage you hearing if turned up too loud :)

I hadn't thought of F&F tunes :)

I must admit, one of the coolest cars i've seen at WSID was a red WRX with a big stereo that ran respectable times then cruised down the return road as loud as the in-house P.A. !!!

Exactly, I enjoy cruisng into the staging lanes with the full exhaust and the stereo on then blowing away the commodores etc with the open exhaust and monster tachs. Take that old skool small block :)

If you watch Getaway in stolkholm you'll know about the ITSFUN Porsche, that's a race car with a stezza. They just gave it a huge overhall, and it's still got the stezza in it. Search google for itsfun3

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
