Hey guys, i finally got my turbo n everything running correctly.. so i give the car a tune at first myself and after a week the whole tune turned rich again.. so i retuned it a few times then thought i may of been doing something wrong... so i called a few workshops and they just said the usual "oh it just needs a "proper" tune", so i sent it to be tuned n made 408rwhp on 19psi which wasnt to bad, so for the first few days it wasnt to bad and i runned a wideband on it... nice 14.7s on light cruise to 11.5's-11.6s on full boost..

So a few days later it started to feel abit slower and chewing a fair bit more fuel so i put the wideband back on it.. its now runnin 12s-13s around town.. n 10.9's-11.1's on full boost...

Is there anything else other than the ecu that could be causing this weird problem??

btw the ecu is a power fc pro

nismo 740cc injectors

sard fpr.. but the fuel pressure hasnt changed on it

Cheers

the stock o2 sensor might be messing with the afr's. what happens is you pull out the stock narrowband to fit the wideband, then tune it while the narrowband isnt reading anything. then you put the stock narrowband back in and it messes everything up again. my mate had the same problem with his pfc.

try unplugging the stocky completely and see where that gets you. your other alternative is to get your tuner to tune the car with the wideband that hooks into the rear of the exhaust and leave your stock narrowband in.

Turn 02 Sensor feedback OFF. If your tuner forgot to do that id be really worried.

Check out Paulr33's PFC FAQ to decipher which jap symbol means OFF and which one means ON.

Keep an eye on AFRs after that.

vacuum /boost leak..... cheack over cooler pipe joins etc. 02 sensor feedback wont effect anything other than cruise and light load, full throttle is derived purely from specific map values..

oh turbo could be on its way out, check boost curve.

      Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣

      You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.

      Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?

      So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
