need a quick bit of help and advice people please

the cable that comes off the air box runs back into the motor...(im assuming to the ecu or something not bothering to get technical)

i want to put a pod on the car and take out the air box etc.....is it possible to have this cable still connected and have a pod cos by the look of it, it is on the section i have to take off....

or does it even matter if it is left unplugged?

Cheers for all ur help!

Matt

Leave the cable where it is (attached to the AFM - Air Flow Meter) and just bolt the pod on to it. The A'Pexi Power Pod is a direct bolt-on to R33 AFM's (nice sucking note too). If you want something else, i.e. HKS mushroom, then you will also need to buy an adapter.

If you want to get more technical, you can displace the AFM to in-between the intercooler piping. Though some may say this isn't the best idea.

Allo allo,...............this thread might be the start of another "pod suction noise" link.

Have a read f this mate there are a few good points regarding pod filters and the installation of them amongst the 4 pages of replys.

BUT if you want to save time reading.................go dry filter and remember the engine likes cool air far more than the hot stuff venting from the engine bay so try a cover or mod box to give the pod and engine some cooler air. Apexi, Hurricaine and 3A racing are all good filters (dry versions) when you are deciding.

If your keen on mounting the pod outside the engine bay the following link may also be a handy one to look at.

The six post down gives you a good look at what can be done.

All the best wth your pod whatever you decide!

    • 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
