Any Reason Why Whenever I Give It Full Boot?

[R32 GTS4 4DOOR]

Hi again guys and girls.

Firstly every one who has replied to my previous topics, thanks.

Can some one tell me why whenever i give my car( R32 GTS4 Turbo) full boot i get full boost and get an intermittent backfiring. I've got new Spark Plugs gapped to 0.8mm, New Splitfire Coil Packs, and Running 11PSI.

I'm thinking my car is running way to rich!!

Other mods- Turbo back Exhaust, pod filter and HDI Boost Controller.

Any help or advice is well received.

do you have a bov?

You may be running very rich, is your car tuned?

[Wogan]

are you getting any loss in power or just popping noise? .. if it's just the noise then a good tune would probably fix it.

[R32 GTS4 4DOOR]

yeh, got a bov. forgot about that.

Car has not been tuned, as i've been told by x-speed that the won't tune factory computers, i haven't bee n to any other performance shops yet though, so help with that would be good

no loss of power although does feel a sluggish occassionally. if i jsu raise the foot off a lil bit all is good again...

stock ecu is doing its job;

get a tune and should sort out your problem; think hyperdrive can do tune for stock ecu

Theres your problem, you should take it to another workshop.

Where abouts are you located. If its not to much of a hassle take it to hyperdrive. Andrew is very helpful.

Can you expand on the "stock ecu is doing its job"

The stock ECU has restrictions and your running higher boost than factory etc etc

[SKYRYAN]

only 1psi higher than stock though isnt it o_O

a retune would be a good idea anyway

[R32 GTS4 4DOOR]

I'm living in Leeming at the moment, soon to be living in Thornlie.

Ah ok, i was under the impression that i need a retune at some stage. Hyperdrive, any others that people know of??

hehe, i thought x-speed were not as good as they make out to be, expensive to!!

stock is 5 and 7 psi. go get yourself at minimum a SAFC2 fuel controller and get it tuned with that

[Pattygtst]

^ That would be the r33, r32 is 10psi

[R32 GTS4 4DOOR]

i would agree with that, stock boost is 10psi for r32's.

[Pattygtst]

depending on how far you want to go with the car.

If you only want to keep it mildly modified

Just get it remapped or nistune from hyperdrive. You probably wont get much or if any additional power but the car will function perfectly.

Ah sorry didn't know that R32's ran 10psi stock, my bad.

cool, cheers dude!!

If i wanted to take things a lil further wat u recommend??

[gazza750]

try reading the forced induction section you will probably find the answer in there

[SKYRYAN]

Just get yourself an R33 series 1 turbo, and a stock ecu flash tune.

Whats that like $700 or less?

I dunno how much the R32 ECU retune costs. But a stock R33 turbo is about $300?
