they've got a universal ecu now, just like v8's and motec i assume.

Yep, made by MacLaren Electronics and Microsoft, a number of the teams have complained about it, as they are finding that the unit works in strange ways regarding sensors and the like. It is also shaped like a triangle with the points cut off (same case as the 07 MacLaren) and teams are finding it difficult to retrofit into the 07 chassis for testing.

lol, that's not traction control officer it's my pit lane speed limiter... *cough.

or that's not launch control, it's my traction control cutting it when I launch.... hehe.

some teams had "power reduction systems" etc when TC was last banned. and of course, ferrari infamously still had the TC code in their ECU. no way of proving it had been used though.

lol it was cheating so I assumed it was ferrari :(

Wow. Surprised it took until the 5th for the first ferreri bash of the year.

As for me, I'll be backing Heiki. I hope he gives Lewis a spanking.

    • 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         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
