hey guys.. just a quick question

im getting my car dyno tuned and a vipec installed on friday, and getting the boost control set to 10 and 16psi.

car is a

96 s2 rb25det

kkr 430 turbo

fmic

just wondering if im gonna run out of fuel when shes all tuned up and running schmick, a mate has said i might with the power il be running

thanks!

don’t expect much power from the kk430, i'd look out for boost issues if your running a internal wastegate?

you will need a new fuel pump eg: 040 or walbro, injectors will run very close to max and your AFM will max out if your going to run 16psi

i suggest:

bosh 040 or walbro

bigger injectors

z32 AFM

keep us updated, keen to see the end result

here is a recent build that i just finished for a friend of mine, might give you some good info.

cheers!

:(

yeh mate internal wastegate at the moment, iv been well informed about the boost issues. read your thread too.

at the moment going off my boost guage it doesnt go past 12psi, reckon that will be a problem? mate said he has seen them creep to 18psi :S

also with the ecu im getting (vipec) it doesn't use an AFM, its map sensored or whatever its called (don't really know much at all about this - anyone who is bored feel free to explain it to me, i need to do alot of reading over the next few days !).

So you think il need a new fuel pump definitely, il see how it goes on the dyno and post results etc over the weekend!\

oh by the way all the work is being done at godzilla motorsport

i'd be very surprised if you don’t get boost creep, they all do it and just unavoidable.

with the supporting mods, your fuel pump may or may not be enough you just don’t know in what condition it's in. this also comes down to reliability, why would you want to risk your car leaning out and causing serious damage to your engine which will result in a rebuild.

same goes for your injectors, you will be running them on max and it’s just not safe and will limit the amount of boost you can run.

if your going with the MAP sensor option there is no need for a AFM so no need to worry about that then.

i suggest you go with a bigger pump and injectors to ensure you have enough fuel to keep it safe and to achieve the desired result.

:ph34r:

i'm in the same boat but i have a power fc and kkr480, i was looking at injector and pump for it.

Can you change it to be externally wastegated??

pretty sure you can weld it up so that it requires an external, dont ask me how though lol.

just been looking at turbos to buy and saw a couple that had been made into external.

Ps good luck with the build up existence, definatley replace the pump atleast (old and worn out) mine is about to crap itself and im only running bit above stock power.

be best to keep an eye on the fueling side as well so get yourself a decent fuel pump and injectors.

my 34 has the mods listed below in my sig my im maxing out my stock injectros and it pings at high boost so upgrading them next week to 480cc. better to be safe then sorry mate.

save up a little more dosh and get it done properly. get yourself a highflow fuel pump and decent injectors. fuel pumps are not that pricey its the injectors that are the killer, but its better to have everything and take it and et it all tuned at once as you will be saving on getting the injectors tuned again.

if your interested in injectros check out power flow injections here in melbourne. they quoted me $840 for 480cc injectors for my 34 http://www.powerflowinjection.com/ and so far they have been the cheapest.

so ye get you pump and injectors first before you try and tune it for high boost or you will end up spending more money on a rebuild.

or if you really really really wanna get it put on asap put it all in but tune it to a safe boost so around 200rwkw till you can afford to upgrade the injectors and pump

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
