And a heap of Golfs.

Yeah, but we already knew about them. The 370 I hadn't seen before.

orly? They pull you up or something?

Not me. They pulled up next to me at the lights at Rode Rd and Appleby Rd. Chatting away "hey, how's it going? Have a good night? Where you headed?" etc... and I was thinking "this guy is a bit... chatty... I hope it's not a cop because I have to go up that hill and my BOV is going to go off it's brain..." so the lights go green and the hero in the Hyundai coupe hits limiter, lays a massive skid and goes tearing up the road at about 90k through a 60 zone. Blue and red lights appear on the Z and I'm like :(

I took off slowly and limped up the hill so I didn't set off my BOV, when I got to the bottom he had the Hyundai pulled over and was getting out of his car with his little book of prizes. So I honked and waved goodbye and he waved back :(

...but yeah. Black 370Z hard top. Didn't see the plate because he was next to me, and then I couldn't see shit because of the flashing lights. Must be a Boondall or Strathpine one, so just be careful around Zeds.

So, finally figured out what is wrong with Jason's boost control set up.

What's wrong with this picture?

Hint: Symptoms include infinity boost, and (I presume) BOV not working

I can't believe I didn't spot it when I looked last week, my excuse is I was drunk on JB :(

I'll let you all guess for yourselves which 'mechanic' is responsible for this quality work.

So am I right thinking it should go Boost Control > Wastegate > BOV? but it currently goes Wastegate > Boost Control > Bov?

direction is irrelevant.

HINT: IF there was a boost source direction would be slightly more relevant

Sensor in the plenum then where else do they read air flow from?

But either way the BOV shouldn't be connected to the boost controller. Ur diagram is showing the BOV as the boost source right? Which means it wouldnt be getting any data saying open the wastegate. So wastegate stays shut and you get 11ty billion boost right?

Does colin get a prize?

No worries mang.

So whats happening with you and the alphabet lady?

Can't tell you... It's a secret :(

Jason's a flamin mongrel.

You love me really

I know this, but it is relevant why?

Because I'm awesome

No

Yes I farkn am... don't make me slap you

draw some direction lines on ur diagram then negro

It was a awesome diagram though :(

Hey ladies.

REgarding your l337 MS Paint 5k1llz Y0, you forgot to show the connection between the BOV, horn and the indicator fluid level sensor.

So you're all ghey......ah I mean wrong. Worng as in a bit fact guy with a bear touching himself whilst watching a Maria Carey video in nothing but a pizza stained singlet.

    • This. The R34 handbrake icon DOES come up when the brake fluid level is low. You might be sitting right on that threshhold. I have been down this diagnosis path and this was the solution (and it was pretty much as full as your picture is to begin with).
    • Unfortunately the cavaet to that is that while any scan tool should be able to read the code, the workshop will need a consult plug to OBD socket adapter. You don't have a location on your profile, where are you based?
    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation.
