What do you think?? Who installed it?? And what did it cost??

Looking at getting PAC Performance to install a LTX-12.

Does anyone have any info on the EMS for the GTR as well??

I am running HKS 2530's manifols and dump pipes, Cam gears and a bigger front mount, full exhaust.

any help would be great

I want to get rid of the AF metres...

Pac Performance seen to know their stuff whaen it comes to the Microtech. What do you think??

I also have a Power FC and Hand controller st home that i might use..

Who in Sydney is pretty switched on, when it comes to the power FC??

What do people think of SAS (Silverwater Automotive Services)

try coydons or silver water you only need to upgrade you afms to z32 ones the powerfc is a much better than micro tech for fuel economy and driveability. and the powerfc is plug in no install required. the microtech is good on rotors and wild track cars

cheers

I spoke to vince rigoli about putting EMS on a GTR and he said that he would have to put a throttle body on the front of the plenum to get throttle position reference. He said EMS as good as it is (i run it on my SR by the way) is not great on a GTR and recommended the power FC

Hi 600hp, let's see if I can extract an answer.................

We have a 650 bhp GTR that runs AFM's, and I am just about to finish a 900 bhp RB30/26 hybrid that will run AFM's.

There is simply no more accurate way to measure the airflow into an engine than AFM's. MAP's are not as accurate, therefore tuning compromises, poorer idle quality, difficulty with multiple throttle bodies (like a GTR has), don't handle the load changes as efficiently for air con, power steer or electrical load etc.

OK, so I have covered power, idle quality, changing load ... oh I know .... fuel economy...

AFM's will give higher accuracy, so the fuel economy will be better than with a MAP sensor driven ECU.

Gotta ask the question again, why get rid of the AFMs anyway?

It seems to be a knee-jerk responce when looking for more power along with whacking on a bigger turbo.

It seems to me the advantages of the AFM for any street driven car far outweigh any perceived disadvantages

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
