the only downside to Nistune is that it doesn't have any "real" inputs for engine protection such as wideband feedback for lean out, or pressure switch inputs for low fuel pressure and/or low oil pressure

Other than that, it's 1000000000x light years ahead of PowerFC

Has engine protection ever actually "protected" a engine from failure though?
Referring to adaptronic/haltech and such.

My thoughts would be....it would be to late anyway...maybe it could stop "major" damage but at that point...you should know already lol
I guess it depends on the point of "failure"

Fyi, im at about 440hp atw with z32 afm
Pretty sure it can do over 500hp with a correct afm

Yes. I have seen video of an RB30 with a Link cutting the power when the oil pressure gets too low and no, the car did not spin out and crash in a ball of fire.

yeah ive seen many cases where engine protection has stopped or at lest reduced damage to engines.. if your paying top dollar for an ecu youve probably got alot of cash sunk into your engine too.. it wouldn't be used if it didn't work. theoretically

also my nistune has been flawless..even with the flex tune..definitely recommend

Whats the max hp the Nistune type 4 can handle. Is it suitable for a 30 25 neo with gtx3582r freddy plenum 1000cc injector hpx1 airflow meter.

Will it be up to the task

made over 600rwkw, airflow meter is the key, if you can measure the air your good to go. The new HPX in a 4" tube will go 1200 plus hp

Would you be able to tell me how? Either through this thread or PM? I cannot find it in the settings.

Pretty much two options from my personal experience.

1. Set the AFM to Z32 and click on half value (if running 2) and adjust k value till your car hits stoich with o2 feedback disabled

2. Leave as is and adjust the k constant till you hit stoich on idle with the O2 feedback flag disabled

The beauty of the Nismo or Z32 etc. Is that the curve is nearly stock so there's no fancy calibration need like the HPX afm which I've yet to use.

    • I might just check it out.. A Q among all those skylines.. lol
    • Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc.   I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery  Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery
    • The price is really great for that kind of capacity. I thought similar setups cost way more. How's your efficiency been with the DC-coupling? I've heard sometimes there can be a bit of a performance loss.
    • Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.    
    • In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
