Weirdness On Dyno

hi there

had a tune on the car not too long ago - only been out to the track once with it as it was... basically had powerfc / z32 / gtr inj / hks 2530 / rb24... results were 220 @ 1bar as i didnt have a boost controller and thats what the actuator was set at...

ok so last friday i get it back to the dyno with a gizzmo ibc fitted, i was told all i would need is a power run just to make sure once i have it fitted, just get the a/f ratios checked with the extra boost. fair enough :)

originally the tune was air fuel ratios 12 - 13's so fairly good. Now with any sorta boost at all above 1 bar or at 1bar, its running 14's in the fuel ratio's...

only things changed were - adding of the IBC - change of fuel filter (ryco z200) / oil filter (K&N) / air filter (K&N) / oil (motul 300v 10w40).

has anybody had any similar problems like this?

i also have an inconsistant misfiring problem, which may be injector plug as its only number 2 cylinder cutting spark. i will be pulling the loom out to check for green goop and clean everything up appropriately. check the link for no spark issue -> http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=141348

thanks

Is it just me: I consider anything above 12 (a/f) lean.

I would prefer to have a/f ratios sitting at 11.5 - 12.

As Adriano has stated, you need to get the Pfc re-tuned. If you still can't lower the a/f ratio start looking at upgrading parts of the fuel system.

yep as you increased the boost

its increase P (load) so its moved it down on the load map a bit more to an un-tuned area, so its leaner than you like. solution get it tuned with the safest boost you can run at the correct setting, ie: don't have hi or low, or if you do, tune for both, which means more $$$

yeah i will simply get a tune for max boost, which will be free of charge as long as nothing else is wrong...

i am running a walbro intank pump, never had a problem with it before and it has easily made almost 240rwkw in the same car.

running a stock FPR

so i'm guessing the ebc is simply bringing the whole curve over (so more boost earlier than it was before) and now where there used to be fuel there isnt, because the curve has moved over from ebc. ?

as for misfire - i found lots of green goopy shit on a couple inj plugs so clean them up or possibly replace.

thanks

check afrs once solve all your issues, maybe get a retune\check.

has the timing been moved?

not a fan of powerfc...

why not? any other ecu would have done the same thing.

he tuned for a given level of airflow, then adding in more air, so it moved the max load points on the map.

a new fuel filter can make it run a bit leaner. if the old filter wasn't very dirty, but had done a bit of work it probably didn't filter as well as it should and let more fuel through than in filtered. then when you put the new filter in it is a bit more restrictive.

well sorta thinking this... can it make that much of a difference, i have noticed a LOT more flutter with the new pod, and can hear the air sucking in.

also was thinking that it may get more fuel if old fuel filter was blocked...

If your car was tuned in the 12's and is now running in the 14's its running LEAN!

I.e you need a retune.

If your intake is flowing more air, but the tune remains the same it will run leaner

as the PFC doesnt compensate (unless tuned otherwise)

As with any intake, you will get increased induction noise which also means a louder

      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.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      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?

      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.
