its enough to get any turbo owners nose out of joint! :):D

Magnetic fuel saver, turbo zet or ebay power chip?

Excluding a 2.5L capacity increase or -600Kg , I don't think any turbo owner would be too concerned

havent been able to do the dyno run yet.......... :blush: have had to work endlessly atm and i need to change the oil aswell cause she has decided to chuck the shits on the pennzoil we put in just before Autosalon.....the oil is black as and that was after 4 weeks! so im putting in my Nulon Fully Synthetic again aswell as putting in a flush to get anycrap out.

Not necessarily a bad thing, as long as the oils still thick and theres good pressure, different oils have different detergents which can blacken the oil. I'm allways pedantic about my oil though and change on colour or 5000kms what ever comes first, including an oil flush.

pfffttt, More Nitrous.......?

I'm still wondering how your missing power has come back so suddenly from a change in knock sensors when you run a power FC...

Also, you seem pretty caught up on playing the numbers game...

A mates car went from making 195RWKW to making 160oddRWKW, yet, it still ran the exact same 1/4 mile times... Maybe when he lost power, the laws of physics changed also?

well it wasnt actually..............thank you very much. dont ever assume anything with my car.

and just on a good note.........i am now proudly sponsored by MARTINI RACING.

So a sensor that provides feed back to a system, which does NOTHING with this feed back to alter ANYTHING, not even pull timing or change fuelling... Made a difference on your car?

Wow... I really want to know how it did that...

Unsure if you know, but having a knock sensor, having a dead knock sensor, and having no knock sensor, on a car with a powerFC will make it run EXACTLY the same... The only thing you'll notice, is the CEL flashing if you actually get knock, (Or if it's cactus it'll flash without there being any knock, and without the sensor, it won't flash at all)

But glad to see you picked up 50 bajillion killer wasps at the rear wheels...

So, when are we going to actually see this thing make a pass down the quarter to back up these over inflated dyno figures? Or, are you too scared to run it down the 1/4 as it'd prove you don't have all those killer wasps, just like you won't post a dyno sheet of how it's running now as you know the knock sensor did sweet f**k all, and if your mechanic told you it made a difference, you should quit going to him.

If it's you saying "it made a difference" get over the placebo effect.

i'm going to keep my opinions out of this, however a friendly reminder to everyone posting to keep comments civil.

if cara has done things with positive experiences then there really isn't much problem is there.

play nice :)

How manny killer wasps does your 33 make before melting into the tarmac, champ?

I wouldn't worry about the oil changing colour too much at all. Even synthetic will turn black - especially if the cleaning agents in most street engine oils are doing their thing.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
