Ha! Send it to wherever via my joint....it might have some intimate time with a baseball bat!

Watch this. It's a clip from office space.

The guy at 47 seconds pretty much sums up my feelings right now

PFC for the WIN :D

or if you really wanna get a high tech ecu get a microtech :( lol jokes.

deano we could run the 285s but just have to raise our cars just a tad..... like 70 mm atleast.

im soooo keen for e85, come on gossy caltex hurry up and finish the tank works :D

lol 70mm :D

haha i was just talking to a mate today about this clip, farken gold!

yeah mate, pfc is a dinosaur BUT it works

sorry about the silly question, but to the guys running over 400rwkw, if you have a twin setup do most keep it internal or external gated turbos ? any issues with boost creeping ?

internal, there are no boost control issues with decent turbos :D

lol at microlebs, seriously them and V400 wolf 3ds are a downgrade from the stock ecu, less injector drivers and less features

My ECU is able to drive two sets of injectors via primary and secondary banks, two fuel pumps + lifter - it is set up to run primary bank+one pump on cruise and light throttle/loads, with the second bank and pump trigged when boost/load increases; can idle fine despite using MASSIVE cams, and gives me great fuel economy and drivability to boot (as long as I'm not WOT'ing it everywhere :D).

Data logging, switchable maps, shift light, two-step, warning lights, boost cut, soft and harsh rev cuts, etc etc.

I'd take it any day over a PFC or stock ecu...

My ECU is able to drive two sets of injectors via primary and secondary banks,

Yeah, 4 injector drivers lol, means all 3 injectors are firing at once, lacks sequential injection like the stock ecu and any other decent ecu, no matter what you do, all things being equal you won't get as good fuel economy nor will it be as easy to tune.

for the price and trouble of going to an aftermarket ecu, there are plenty of better ones.

This just made me think of the VIPEC v44...it has 4 ign outputs and from what I can gather off their website, 4 injector drivers...

Four low current injector outputs. Optional Peak and Hold drivers available.

Spare injector and ignition outputs can be used for output control.

Though the line in bold confuses me...who the hell runs less than 4 cylinders?

Does this mean that the v44 is wasting fuel too?

I thought it was only the older models (of wolf and vipec) that only had 4 injector drivers, all new models run 6 or 8 injector and ignition drivers.

The fuel wastage isn't that bad, but it all adds up, it also makes it harder to tune the car to idle smoothly. Lack of ignition drivers isn't really an issue, injector ones can be though.

With 4 injector drivers you can run it in batch mode using only 2 of them, 2 driving 3 cylinders each, or 3 driving 2 cylinders each and set it up semi sequential.

the plugin skyline version has 4 ignition drivers and 8 injector drivers.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
