Exhaust - Trust power extreme II

Z32 AFM

Cooling pro Tube and Fin FMIC

Pod Filter

7PSI Mod to stock solenoid

Gapped Plugs 0.8mm (not really a mod as such i guess?)

dont think so but ill see what the guy can do. problem is i think he will install it then dyno it and then tune it? maybe? lol never done this before so ill just ask.

As you have suggested, this is what Cihan does. He will install it, then take it to the dyno for tuning. So unless you want to pay for two lots of dyno time, you won't get a before/after reading.

but surely when you first install it, it would be set to some sort of factory default? or zero mode. But my problem is the unit is second hand out of a r33 GTST so im guessing it would have all of the previouse owners values in it.

2 days and counting! dropping it off at 9AM in the morning on wednesday to a place called RE Customs in springvale picking it up after work, so should have enough time on the way home to see any difference in drive. now the only other issue is that im also installing the Gizzmo IBC witch should take me from 7PSI to 10 or 11 PSI, so any increase in power might be due to that. wish i had done them seperate so i could have posted up the effect of each mod, but im sure it will be an interesting drive any way.

i take my stagea there .. he does a good job .... only guy to ever touch my car and only will .. cars in good hands .. once you get it back you will know. 1 day for install and tune? seems a bit of a

tight schedual ..

Yeah he sounds like he knows what he is talking about and ive read through all of his customers dyno results and had a look at all the dyno graphs. So im fairly confident he'll know what he is doing. I personally havnt been down this ally before but a day sounds alright to me shouldnt take more then an hour to install the Greddy as it is a piggy back system and maybe another 2 hours for the Gizzmo and then another 2 hours for dyno.

any one know if this sounds bout right?

ahh piggy back yeah maybe .... you will see my mates gti-r there .. he got a wolf v500 installed .. first time they did a wolf v500 they didnt tell him a time cause they couldnt estimate .. all up learning from the turner, and installing and dyno tuning ... maybe 3-4 days ... thats with doing the other cars they have there also, if they stuck to it in one hit . maybe a day and a half

ahh nah the guy thats doing the install is cihan from etuner but he does the dyno and tune out of RE customs (uses thier dyno)

Well guys, I'm very Pleased with my install and the guy that did the install. My car is now running 10.6 psi with the Gizzmo IBC and has never pulled like it did today, it was probly the best feel it has had since i got it. the emanage unit its self is mapping for air, fuel and ignition and well the car seems to breath ALOT better. The gear change is a little more stiff but alot quicker and provides for snappy change but a nice smooth pull through gears. One thing i never had was alot of bottem end but this seems to have given me a bigger set of balls down below. I'm very happy with the result.

my Mods were as follows

Exhaust - Trust power extreme II

Z32 AFM

Cooling pro Tube and Fin FMIC

Pod Filter

Gizzmo IBC 10.6 PSI

Gapped Plugs 0.8mm

Greddy E-manage Ultimate

And this is the result

What do you mean by self mapping? Can you adjust the timing and afr? Did you get a print out of your air/fuel ratios? Your power figure looks pretty similar to mine (with a full exhaust and a bigger SMIC) but your FMIC should give you scope for more boost (high flow your own turbo or upgrade to a better one).

I ment the unit is providing a map for air, fuel and ignition. "the emanage unit its self, is mapping for"

my air fuel ratio was something to do with 14 then as the boost went up it dropped down to like 12 i cant remember the exact figures. yes you can deffinately adjust the air flow ratio with this unit as he spent 2 hours doing this. when i get my turbo upgrade he has informed me that it wont be a hastle to go completly none AFM and let the unit do it all. the guys at RE customs have given me an option wich is a bit pricey but should pull half descent results, they call it the Leathal Combo apparently there is a few youtube video's on this.I'm guessing its basicly a GT30 turbo package worth $5000.

lol i just had a look at my dyno sheet picture i put a few posts up and at the bottom just behind you can see the words "creating safer communities"

found the AFR and the sheet with stock boost.

Again if you guys are going down this path i recomend taking your car to Cihan @ etuner this guy knows his sh*t backwards and he does a 1 day turn around. drop your car off in the morning and pick it up in the evening. he also doesnt mind you chilling out with him while he works on your car. I know alot of guys that do this sorta thing dont like you hanging round. my next mods are the bellmouth dump pipe and x-force cat and ill be taking it back to get tuned by him!

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
