You're not wrong there.

The car is booked in for a tune at EFI on Wednesday. Need to fit Nistune, drop front shaft and up the boost a little before then.

Hope it all turns out well, I'll have to save like hell and hope I can get more done before too long. Mine is only set for 7.5PSI with a good 3-4 more to come as it stands but not sure if I wanna keep her as she is or go all out... Glad I dont have to worry about dropping driveshafts ect, keep us informed.

They'll set the boost when they tune it.

Not with the way my boost control works....

I didn't realise it was as bad as it was made out to be. Welcome To California...

you get off work at 12:30 on a Friday? nice deal

I haven't done much all day. Does that count?

Thanks mate. Your's turned out ok, except for the big dollars. 155kw for stock boost is good. Going all out costs too much...:wacko:

Yeah I know but it's possible plans for the future. Biggest things for me at the moment is my suspension is completely farked in the back, front not too bad but could be better so that's my main, then I got a small leak in the turbo manifold I have to reseal, the turbo drain has a small leak and VCT rewiring and new boost controller. That's what they've told me anyway.

just a quick question.

What oil you guys and gals pour into your babies?? Ive been very happy with MOTUL turbolight....but getting increasingly annoying to find. Ralf has some penrite jazz in his.....ive never been happy with a penrite oil. :sick:

Royal purple or penrite sin, turbo light is shit, every time I have used it I have had inconsistent oil pressure after about 2000kms

ive always had nice consistent oil pressure with turbolight, Mumslayer has penrite in his car atm...and his oil pressure seems very low.

i love the idea of royal purple. but dunno if i can justify the 100 bucks a bottle :(

The Turbolight isn't a fully synthetic oil, it's a synthetic/mineral blend

If you're going to use Motul, go for the 8100 excess or Chrono V

I use Royal Purple

im not worried about fully syn and not. the cars were made and factory run on basics, so i think the 59 bucks for the turbolight will do. (which i did fine btw...locally and easily)

that sounds like an interesting oil you running there smity. hows the oil pressure? im still vary wary of penrite.

Dan [ERD] has posted this previously, and it's not the be all and end all of oil tests but it gives you a good guide:

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By feartherb26 · Posted

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
