interesting you should say that.. as our stagea ( RB25DET NEO ) does the same thing.

I am not currently running a boost guage as everything is stock as a rock engine wise.

I think 1/2 the problem is the auto takes so freaking long to change gears.

so when you say it revs its tits off and does nothing.. is this just while its changing gears or after its engaged the gear? how many PSI are you running normally ( ie before it spikes )

what if you turn the boost down does it still happen?

everything in my engine bay is stock as a rock as well save for the fmic..... im running stock boost with a turbosmart boost tee boost controller wound all the way down so it should be running stock boost regardless.... normally before it spkies its running on 7 psi boost and it happens during both when the gear is engaged and also during gear change depending on the cirsumstances its f**kin weird

hmmm . . not to sound like an @sshole but those turbosmart boost controllers are notoriously crap!

they do tend to spike, I foudn the turbotech ones far better ( not to mention heaps cheaper ! )

so your factory boost solenoid has been removed yeh?

are you still running the stock BOV?

hmm .. re-reading your last post I see it happens ( the spike ) if your in gear or not.. that would make me even more suspicious of that boost T

the turbotech ones were well received by the people on this forum so I would be pretty surprised if

someone near you does not have one they can loan you jsut for testing reasons

      Unpeeling the Orange

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
