yo

i recently blocked off my bov (not for the muzzer sound, coz my old bov was broken from the bolts), and basically everytime i hit boost and clutch in so it idles, the car will stall

now i think i remember reading up along time ago, that it stalls before the afm gets confused or something coz of the pressure coming out.. others said its because the afm is old..

so could it be my afm giving up or do i how to relocate the AFM

if so, where? i seen alot of people put it on the piping coming from the plenum, what exactly is needed to do this?

eg how much/what type of wiring?

what do i do with the pod? get an adaptor or something?

cheers

i dont have a stock turbo, so it sounds unique (compared to 90% of skylines i have seen)

stock bov just duznt do it for me, i like the blitz ones, but it gets annoying, and i cant stand the hks ssq or whatever... that one that sounds like a budgie getting its head chopped off

also, (and I'm purely guessing here), but wouldn't relocating the AFM anywhere in the intake not solve the problems its causing (given that it is the AFM, and given that it's caused by the air coming out/confused). Even if you have the AFM right before the throttle body, when the throttle closed then there's still going to be airflowing backwards isn't there? As the changes in airflow/pressure occur after the thottle..... right?

I guess if the AFM's old then you could just try swapping it and seeing what happens? You can try mine if you want.

get a Blow off valve..fix your problem...

Then you can install a speaker in your engine bay..that is linked to a Ipod in the car..connect it to your clutch pedal.

You can have...cows moowing...

Cats meowingggg.

Dogggssss barking......

and chickens (I don't know what they do).....

and oh..monkeys..doing sounds like monkeys do..LOL

Change the tune everyday......it will be great for laughs

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • 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.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
