Hey guys

Will it do any damage or cause any trouble if I put the SS1PU on without the nistune installed yet?

Trying to work out a way I can get the car to DVS without having to tow it up there.

I was thinking install the SS1PU and then get my brother to wire up a plug for my z32 so I can drive up with the stock AFM then just chuck the Z32 when I get there

how far are you going to be driving, isn't DVS a couple hours away?

It's very possible not to boost lol. If you want to install the turbo before you get it tuned then you don't boost it, simple.

On the stock ecu it will hardly boost before it hits r&r anyway.

I ran my ATR43G3 for a year without being tunned ran it on 7 psi and its ran great just laggy.

Loosen off the actuator so its sloppy comming on boost and you will be fine hitting up to 5 psi on stock tune

Possibly get a base tune by someone in Canberra and let the turbo run in, then go to DVS to get the tune tweaked?

If money is a factor, work out if it'll more $$$ to tow 4 hours or get a base tune here and drive up.

You will be fine. If the turbo is the only aftermarket thing you've got on there, it will be fine. 4 hours of tow truck.... gonna cost you. You can easily drive the full speed limits. Going up to his place is pretty easy, no pressure to floor it or go fast. Once you are on the free way cruise it there. Get all the prep work done before hand(as you are with the wiring) so when you get there and get to the dyno, minimal time is wasted dicking around.

I drove my car to my tuner about 20 minutes away first time. I had all my aftermarket parts in there except my injectors(didn't want to risk the wrong settings). It was running on the base tune with the z32 afm and it was fine. This drive was through start and stop traffic.

I can probably drive my car to the other side of australia at 110km/h without hitting any boost at all. Right foot, control and toot on. You won't hit 6psi unless you actually tried to. You'll be fine man trust me. You will get there faster than a tow truck will and you will have the money in your pocket to pay for the tune or pay for something else when the car isn't making the power it should.

Yeah he is at least 4 and a half hours away which is impossible not to boost

What kind of issues does it cause upgrading from stock turbo with the stock ecu.

Thanks guys

If you boost it you risk detonation, however what you can do is leave the wastegate actuator off so you literally can't boost more than 1-2psi by redline, do this.

ive been driving with my gtx3076 and stockish tune, cant do more than 2-3psi without the engine light coming on, you should be able to baby it around no probs

just change gear at 2500rpm with not much throttle, mine still keeps up with traffic even off boost, just shift up quickly and your fine.

taking the actuator off will make it sound very loud and drive like a dog, atleast thats what happened with mine.:whistling:

The turbo it self acts like a muffler of some sort, bypassing the turbine the exhaust goes through the open wastegate, it will be louder. It will run like arse, but its foolproof and safe if you are worried about foot control.

    • The stock one will outperform any aftermarket standard position exhaust manifold. If you don't believe me, do a back to back test (same turbo, same boost, same timing) and you'll be super surprised.
    • Any recommendations on a decent replacement manifold that doesnt break the bank or require additional mods for the stock turbo setup? I figure if I'm going to pull the manifold off anyway to fix the studs might as well replace it. 
    • So I checked the turbo out today. Very minimum play at all just enough for the oil to take up when it's running. I did find an exhaust leak at the manifold. 1 stud all the way in the front is missing and the one all the way in the back is broken off. Front has visible signs of an exhaust leak. I'll fix that soon but that's not my problem still.  I also found that the nipple coming off the turbo had the hose capped off and a hose ran from the j-pipe by the bov going to the wastegate. I removed that hose and capped that nipple and put the turbo nipple hose back on the wastegate.  There was a ton of oil residue all through the charge side of the intercooler piping going to the throttle bodg. I'm thinking that's from the pcv. Doesn't seem to be coming from the turbo that was all clean on the pipes side.  Haven't had a chance to check fuel pressure yet, haven't had time been having to pull a lot of doubles at work. I did pick up some carb cleaner to clean the iacv but wanted to make sure I had a fresh gasket in case the old one rips when I pull it off.  I'm waiting on a MAF that was supposed to be here today but delayed to Monday. Have a double Monday and Friday and work all of next weekend so going to try to find some time in the middle of the week to try that out. Did about a 10m trip around the block today and towards the end the issues were coming back. Fingers crossed on this MAF but if not just going to throw a fuel pressure gauge in and see where I'm at.  Did notice today that I can definitely hear the injectors pulsing. Very audible clicking coming from them. Assuming that's normal? Should also mean CAS is functioning somewhat properly. After it warmed up when I started it the intermittent misfires came in again. Did start doing that before it was fully warmed up. 
    • This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O
    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
