Hey people, just got myself an R33 S1 and when accelerating at about 4500rpm onwards i get what i think is a really bad boost problem or misfire.

It did have a manual boost controller and i got told that it could be that! So i took it out, i've added some pics to how i hooked it back up, if its wrong let me know or if you know what the problem is PLEASE help lol...

Probably stock ecu going from low boost to high boost mode. The stock ecu automatically switches boost levels around that rpm. You just need to earth the signal wire to keep it high all the time. Check technical archive. If you put in a manual controller you should definately be doing that o/wise your ecu will kick it all over the place

or could be your coilpacks, replace or regap plugs

or search&read

standard. it did have a manual controler. I just took it out and put the hoses like that, now its going nuts!

So, i just want it to be standard/normal. What do i do?

I did a quick search, couldn't find anything...

      Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.

      From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢

      Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.
