gt2871 turbo

apexi safc (standard ecu)

fmic

full exhaust

bosch 040

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

    • Hi, wondering if the HKS bar and water reservoir still available? Thanks 
    • What an awesome idea to fit the facelift Lamborghini Diablo headlights. They are a perfect fit!
    • An update regarding the registration with the DVLA I sent off the paperwork the day after I collected the car from the port, two weeks later it was all returned with a letter explaining they have rejected the application. This was because the cheque was £20 short for the road tax (I used a price list I found online). Nevermind it is what it is, it was sent back to them the following day with a new cheque. Fast forward another 2 weeks or so, I called them for an update to be told it had been rejected. Yesterday (16th September) I received the documents back along with another letter, this time it was because I didn't put an X in one box on the V750 (personalised number plate certificate), which declared that I had the rights to the personalised number plate. Why this wasn't mentioned in the first rejection letter, I don't know, but it could have saved this headache. The documents were sent back today, so fingers crossed third times a charm and it'll FINALLY be registered on the road just in time for the bad weather (woohoo!) To cheer myself up I lowered the front 25mm, was sick of seeing it sit like a monster truck. No idea how much clearance I'll have getting on and off the driveway, I'll worry about that when I can actually drive it
    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not
