I have recently finished upgradeing my car and think i am ready to get it tuned. mods are as follows:

gt2871 turbo

apexi safc (standard ecu)

fmic

full exhaust

bosch 040

profec b EBC

I am happy to max out my injector duty cycle but need to know before i go and get it tuned will i need some form or fuel cut defender, and how does this work, and where can i get it from?

Also will i need anything else?

i would just get bigger injectors, as they are pretty cheap and don't have to worry about it later on if ya winde up the boost.

i was also happy to max out my stock injectors, but then wouldn't be happy if my injectors failed and blowed my engine up.

have you upgraded the dump pipe?

also would consider upgrading the afm aswell, as that will start to max out around 210rwkw.

Also wouldn't mind knowing what power are you wanting to achieve?

I'd honestly be surprised if you maxed anything out with that turbo. Its not the largest, and i would only upgrade parts once they max out.

You should be right with a S-AFC or similar.

Whilst not ideal for the job, and a full ECU will give much larger benefits... it will be 'ok' to use the AFC device if thats your choice, and the tuner has half an idea

Thanks for the help, im only chacing around 220 to 240kw at the wheels so guess i will see how i go with my current mods, and maybe down the track look at something that can support, bigger injectors, afm ect. seeing as my safc dosnt.

i will post up results after my tune,

cheers

    • 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.
