Playing COD

Busy day, so will get back to it.

As you were

WTF I pressurised my intake system again... all my piping seems fine. It seems like there's an air leak somewhere around the rear of the motor, on the turbo side, kind of around the back corner of the rocker cover. One of the screws there was half a turn loose so tightened that but realllllllly doubt that was the problem. I already packed up the compressor etc so I didn't check again but I doubt it did anything.

What other pipes run around the back of the motor that carry pressurised intake air??

Anyone have any opinions on this?

Yes I do

But I am looking at a BMW 535i, So if you have one of those it would be great!

well if you look at the cars i sell front on and they are in silhoutte then we would be close

It's F*cked.

:P

Sorry, pretty hard to have a guess at what's wrong over the interwebs.

The only hose that carries air towards the back of the motor should be the feed for the idle control motor... can't remember if this is pressurised or not, I think it comes of the J pipe though so I would guess yes.

My money is still on exhaust leak before the turbo or wastegate stuck open.

Andy,

Our garage is empty enough now, if you want to start to use your garage for your car instead of storage.

Cool, You around on saturday? Might get it towed then? PM me your adress and I will start ringing towies!

I thought wastegate stuck open as well. But then again I don't have a big idea of this sorta thing.

Just realised new sau layout is mobile friendly. Yay.

Anyone have any opinions on this?

Tappet cover gaskets will leak like a bitch when thos screws get loose (Which they always are) Tighten all the screws and go from there. My R33 has lots of leaks from that area and when i fixed it all up the car was much better behaved, Of course your gasket may be rooted too but try tightening everything first

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
