Graphs are below .. red line is stock ecu (which couldn't cope with anything more than 10psi boost) and blue is the new remapped ecu (and 11psi boost) after road tune with Toshi. Car has a turbo back exhaust (JJR front/dump and HKS Silent Power catback) and Greddy EBC, but is otherwise stock.

Can anyone suggest how to hold the boost steady ? As you can see in the 2nd photo it starts dropping from about 5200rpm (11psi) down to approx. 9psi at redline (7000rpm). I have a Greddy ProfecB Spec2 EBC (settings are, boost 55%, gain 15% and start boost '94' ie. 9.4psi)

I'm pretty happy with the new remapped ecu .. car feels more responsive in mid range and is obviously making about 15kw more power at the top end. It's obviously a SAFE tune, not too lean but leaner than stock. Toshi listened for pinging during road tune (microphone connected to the engine block, back to his headphones) and adjusted timing accordingly so theres no pinging. Cost was $500 which included the necessary ecu daughterboard etc

at redline? I'm not worried about redline .. boost seems to be steadily falling off from 5000rpm or so. According to the greddy manual, upping the 'gain' should fix boost that gets reduced as rpms increase.

But I'm not clear on one thing .. it also says that if you increase gain, your overall boost will automatically be higher. So am I right to think that if I increase gain by say 2 points, I should reduce boost 2 points, in order to regain 11psi ?

Wooa :D Thats very impressive, Well done Toshi,

looks like my ex-ecu had secret powers after all :)

lol so that was your ecu hey ? Nice, I liiiike. My one was version 500 (first r34 gtt ecu) and yours was an updated revision v502 Thanks for the brain transplant!

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
