Hey gys, i just put in some new splitfire coils.....and the car is still missing really bad, mainly in second gear and when i give it WOT, foot down.....i had them gapped at .8mm, and the car is only running .7bar boost....thats like 10psi isnt it?

Ive got the following mods

3" exhast to split dump

hybrid fmic

apexi pod

splitfire coils with ngk bcpr6es (gapped at .8mm)

What else could i try to do?

i havent reset my factory ecu for awhile, dnt knw if that will help.....

Im really annoyed that my coils werent the ones at fault($550 later)

had same issues, if it's your stock computer it actually dumps so much timming in it couses it to missfire. I got a retuned ecy removing teh R&R and problem solved. DO a search for WogsRus and Splitfires shoudl come up.

hey mate, sounds like the same problem i had a few months back..car was missing real bad, i took it down to r.e. customs and they fixed it straight away. the problem was two things, dodgy ignitor and fuel pump.

hope that helps!

Good Luck mate

AFM - Spray it with contact cleaner. Easy as.

As for spending $550 on splitfires, didnt you test your original coil packs first?

Before going out and spending money?

Could be anything thats causing a missfire.

Plugs

Coils

Ignitor

ECU

AFM

Connectors corroded to each sensor

CAS

There is a long list of things to have checked that will tell you whats causing the problem

Its called Rich and Retard for a reason

The ecu pulls so much timing out to prevent detonation, not increase it lol :domokun:

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
