I just recently had a full 3" exhaust system fitted to my r34 (turbo back) and since then the engine light has come on twice.

It only stays on for approx a minute or so then goes out again. Maybe just coincidence but it happened after approx 150km of driving after the exhaust was done and the second time was approx 150km after the first time.... only thing i can think of is maybe the O2 sensor or something? Has anyone experienced anything like this before???

Btw, Im new to the forum. Its great! have found heaps of useful info on here already!

OK it's been about 250km's since the engine light has come on and now it is on and staying there.... the sensor in the exhaust looks to bi fitted ok and the wiring is connected and undamaged.

The only other mod i have done so far is a K&N panel filter. I was wondering if maybe the oil in the filter might be messing with the AFM? any thoughts?

Thanks for your help!

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
