Im considering putting and aem fic computer on my rb25det with 550 injectors and a precision gt4067 bb turbo. I want to increase response by advancing the ignition timing from the cam angle sensor, as the aem fic only allows you to retard timing.

My plan is to advance base timing to about 20 degrees off boost as the turbo is expected to start spooling around 3800 rmp with full boost around 5000 rpm. Im hoping that the off boost timing will help with response and power. oh and i also have methanol injection!

does anyone see a problem with this plan, or any other suggestion that doesnt include buying a power fc!

Your gonna wanna trust this aem fic computer, It's got the very well being of your motor in it's grasp. Not worth taking the risk man, Do what most people have proven and use a decent fuel/ignition timing ecu, smaller turbo setup. The 25 isn't bad off boost anyway.

the thing is i intend to run about 14 psi on pump gas with methanol, the turbo should be good for about 375 rwhp at that boost level, i plan to purchase an aem ems later when i switch to forged pistons to run more boost, its just not in the budget right now.

my question is in theory, will may plan with regards to advancing timing from the cas and pulling it back from the aem fic work

the methanol injection is also the reason i need to advance the timing to see any benefits from the methanol

the following is a link to info on aem's fic

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
