you considered keeping your standard ecu at all and doing a re-map? would cost you about $700 for a full custom tune on dyno from jeff from speed lab, then you could spend all that cash on other things... ;-) turbo etc etc

its a bit late now matey, i paid half of it yesterday,

and also, im planning on more modifications soon, so a standalone ecu will prob be needed any way.

Thats what i am going to get done to my 33.....but i am saving up for a PFC when i want to be pushing some mad gigawatts.....

hey craig out of interest have you upgraded the fuel pump yet?

If not you may want to do that as well and i would suggest a bosch 044 if you plan on making anywhere near 300 rwkw.

not as yet, im hoing to see how this goes first, but yeah, injectors and pump are definately next in the list.

i was told to go for walbro over bosch....not sure what to do.

um just to note bud jeff remapped a stock rb20 ecu just for shits n giggles and with some big mods it made 380rwkw....

and you went n spent 2200? without even having a pump upgrade yet? dont get it tuned unless you have a few more things upgraded otherwise your just throwing money away.

fuel pump

new plugs (gapped down to around .65-.7 if using stock coilpacks)

elec boost controller

z32 afm

im assuming you have full exhaust from dump back, cooler, filter, will be interesting to see the results of a remap Vs power fc

jeff made 204rwkw on 10psi stock rb25

hope all goes well!

can someone please give me jeff's number.....i would like to see how much will it send me back getting my r33 ecu remapped....and would be interesting to see what power figures the 33 can pull out on 10 - 12psi.....since it made 180 on 7psi...

i have every thing you listed there, except the pump, 204 rwkw??? i made 206.5rwkw last week on 11 psi when they put the ebc in. dont believe me? tell me how to do it, and ill upload my dyno sheet.

i got my power fc for 1500 a while ago aswell, back then they were pretty low on them cos of that company that supply a chip or something went bust so they couldn't produce anymore or something. put the thing in myself (it is plug & play) but still waiting to get the money to tune it and got a EBC waiting to go in when it gets tuned too, i can't wait. oh yeah, my tune is 400 but only cos i kinda know sum1. car runs beta even though it hasn't been tuned yet so will be awesome once tuned.

i got the impression it was bad to run the car on an untuned fc?

i have been told to get it tuned kinda asap but haven't had the money & it seems to be running fine anyway, just gota remember not to drive too hard.

well i got her back, they managed to pull out 215 rwkw, thats as far as it can go without injectors and pump, and now on hi boost the engine cuts out for a second, then goes again, and the knock sensor goes up to as high as 94!!! bbbbaaaaaddddd! so low boost it is till it goes back in on tues for pump and injectors...money money money

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
