while your doing that might as well slap a turbo on it :)

You'll need to remove the head if thats the case. Might as well throw a gasket kit at it while you're there, just to be sure. Drop the sump and replace the con bearings while you're there ... hell, re-ring it too. Check for abnormal wear and tear.

Best to spend an extra day and $300 freshening up the motor, just to be sure.

I did it will all my engines I picked up for cheap. :D

edit: oh, while the head is off, remove the valves and clean them up too.

your curve Joel from like 95 is like hold on and enjoy the ride :D

For Rad33 with his new rb25det on the way.. Get an rb30 under it. :P

RB25det vct head FTW for bottom end. :D

AL's motor is running the same GT3076 .82 on an rb30det but with a nice exhaust and inlet manifold with slightly smaller cams. The VCT has picked up some nice low end power peak power appears to be made around 7000rpm.

Now for mine.. :P 15.5psi that can be seen and the last tune at 19.5psi through the mid that tails off to 17psi causing top end to flatten out. The 2" fmic piping is causing issues up top as well as the wastegate flap being blown open.

Mine makes its peak around 6000rpm. Will play with the adj. cam gears to shift that to approx 6500rpm. :D

lol we could of told you that cars never miss behave once you get them to the mechanics - PM send about AFM's

So when the mechanics drive my car it doesnt shit itself?????????? FFS!

so where does that leave me? high and dry.

the only thing i can do is.... what for it to happen again and make sure it happens at the mechanics?

ill have to try and clean out the AFMs and check for damage.

Damo :D

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
