Standard R33 computer running 15PSI

Can this be done with the use of a fuel cut defender?

They say that these things run really rich on boost so would the extra boost still run OK ? or will it run lean on anything over the boost cut and ping ??

I dont have the money for a upgraded computer right now and I want to squeeze a bit more performance outta it.. The intercooler is upgraded (supra round core) and so is the turbo (steel rear wheel T3 highflowed with t4 front wheel)

Would it be worth installing the turbo smart fuel cut def? or just waiting for a S-AFC or something?

is anyone using a standard computer on more then 13 PSI boost ?

It is a series 2 engine

Anyone have any idea how much you can get outta a standard computer?!?

with that turbo setup your stock ECU isn't gonna do you any justice as they map's don't really suit turbo upgrades.

as when boost hits it will be different and stuff. I should put a stock ECU into mine and see what it does ... (i got bigger turb's too but i got chipped ECU with a smooth as curve)

S-AFC might fix it but i'm not sure?

What kind of front mount ???

Anyone else??

The turbo seal on teh exhaust housing on a stock R33 is only rated to 14psi out of the factory, in other words once ya go passed that limit it is passed what its made to withstand for a certain period of time. Ya better off saving ya bucks and keep it on say 10psi max for no with no cooler or turbo and get ya self the stuff ya need to make it safe to run that kinda boost. Go zorst and filter to free up the airflow which itself will give you a slight increase in boost naturally, then turn up to say 10psi with a bleed valve, and then hold out for a cooler and computer/piggy back once thats done to correct the richness and allow you to get the most out of it.

You obviously did not read my post.

The turbo is a steel rear wheel VL turbo with a T4 front wheel.

It has a upgraded intercooler (Supra round core) & CAI setup with K&N

Ive got a boost cut fuel cut defender Turbo smart that I want to install. I just want to know if the standard computers mixtures would still be OK at 15 PSI!!!!

So no one has done mods to their car and kept the standard computer ?!?

not many do, for these sorts of reasons

basically no.. its not going to run 15psi without u installing at least some type of electronic management - thats like double the maximum boost the stock ECU is expecting, never mind the different turbo and its different characteristics.

Your cheapest way out is the SAFC $550 fit it yourself and the tune is $50-100, as far as the fuel cut defender goes I havn't got one (at 12psi though) can't say what would happen at 15psi. Best thing to do is put it on a dyno and check what your A/F ratio is now.

i was running 18psi on an aftermarket turbo with an apexi speed cut also i had a variable(homemade)afm signal adjuster which also double as cold start injectors emulator. don't think u can buy one of these, but it was good for 18psi on a gt28 with external wastegate, so yes it can be done, but u need lots of patience.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I myself AM TOTALLY UNPREPARED TO BELIEVE that the load is higher on the track than on the dyno. If it is not happening on the dyno, I cannot see it happening on the track. The difference you are seeing is because it is hot on the track, and I am pretty sure your tuner is not belting the crap out of it on teh dyno when it starts to get hot. The only way that being hot on the track can lead to real ping, that I can think of, is if you are getting more oil (from mist in the inlet tract, or going up past the oil control rings) reducing the effective octane rating of the fuel and causing ping that way. Yeah, nah. Look at this graph which I will helpfully show you zoomed back in. As an engineer, I look at the difference in viscocity at (in your case, 125°C) and say "they're all the same number". Even though those lines are not completely collapsed down onto each other, the oil grades you are talking about (40, 50 and 60) are teh top three lines (150, 220 and 320) and as far as I am concerned, there is not enough difference between them at that temperature to be meaningful. The viscosity of 60 at 125°C is teh same as 40 at 100°C. You should not operate it under high load at high temperature. That is purely because the only way they can achieve their emissions numbers is with thin-arse oil in it, so they have to tell you to put thin oil in it for the street. They know that no-one can drive the car & engine hard enough on the street to reach the operating regime that demands the actual correct oil that the engine needs on the track. And so they tell you to put that oil in for the track. Find a way to get more air into it, or, more likely, out of it. Or add a water spray for when it's hot. Or something.   As to the leak --- a small leak that cannot cause near catastrophic volume loss in a few seconds cannot cause a low pressure condition in the engine. If the leak is large enough to drop oil pressure, then you will only get one or two shots at it before the sump is drained.

      Help! Leak coming under transmission

      So..... it's going to be a heater hose or other coolant hose at the rear of the head/plenum. Or it's going to be one of the welch plugs on the back of the motor, which is a motor out thing to fix.

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
