Hypergear Turbochargers and High flow Services Development thread

The new pump requires an additional earth. By the way it is a walbro F9000262 400L/Min pump. It works once plugged into the stock loom but doesn't create much pressure. Once additional earth is connected it worked fine. How ever didn't help the head gasket.

Don't know why people use anything but the good old 040. Never heard someone complain about one!

Cant forget the Nismo pump, it plugs right in, is good quality and pumps and decent amount of fuel :yes:

Birds, even the 040 needs a good power supply, in fact I would be upgrading the power for any aftermarket pump as they require up to 4 times more current. Stao found out the hard way that the stock wiring can't supply 17 amps. Sorry to hear mate.

Because we are cheap bastards Birds ;) Do wish I had gone with the 044 back when I did my fuel pump, didn't think it would be necessary at the time though. Nor did I realize how good a noisy fuel pump sounds!? :P

Interesting that it failed on the dyno though, was the fuel pressure not being monitored or is it just one of those things?? Makes me want to check my fuel pump, though I have rewired mine and has been sweet so far.

I had 040 in my Sil180, when the metal filter blocks it makes a loud whining noise. I had to pull it out and clean it once every couple of weeks, on the end I teared the mash filter out of the bottom and that worked fine and stopped the whine. lol

The walbro more or less bolton to stock bracket, and it had an walbro in there for 4 years without much issues.

That's what I mean though...040 is so cheap I don't know why people don't just go for that. Still using stock wiring at 260rwkw, no issues with fuel supply...will see if it lasts when I switch to ethanol.

Must have had a dirty tank Stao, or had the pump sitting right at the bottom. Nearly 2 years on and mine never whines!

Unrelated: gearbox running in period approaching it's end; have been giving my car more frequent bursts of full throttle. I've said it many times and I'll say it again, SS1PU ftw. Lastnight was cold as ice and she was throwing my mate back in his seat hahahaha.

If u put a flow gauge on aftermarket pumps with engine running u will see how much upgrading the wiring helps. Yes u can just do the earth mod but i always prefer running a relay with a strong battery supply.

Why not rewire yours? It's cheap and easy to do.

No need to, yet :/

Wouldn't wait until there is a need, by then it will probably be too late and a whole lot more expensive. You're probably wearing out your pump a lot faster by running it at low voltage, Bosch do say to run it at a minimum of 13.5v.

Hi, going to book a tune this week, just wanted peoples opinion on an ECU, I currently have Power fc with Z32 afm. But i was thinking to go down the path of Adaptronic and go with a MAP sensor?

What are your preferences, to help me make a decision, as i dont know what to pick. Its only between the two so please don't recommend another ECU

Both will give the same outcome. But u could sell the power fc, afm and boost controller if u have one and use the adaptronic with boost solenoid so it controls boost

I'm not going to be using a electric boost solenoid, so that feature will be void, but for tunerbility and power potential, would AFM (power fc) or MAP (Adaptronic) be better? If they are similar and outcome will be the same as you say, is it worth the hassle of selling the setup i have now and going Adaptronic? On a side note, Adaptronic uses wasted spark, will this affect life of the coils or produce a lot more heat in the engine?

    • There's probably an underlying issue with the A/C system too. I recently fixed mine, now it's fully control by the Haltech and car's factory HVAC controller  Have a squiz here:    
    • And by the way, I've also checked the ECU diagnostic numerous times and got a bad O2 sensor code and initially an Ignition Primary code, which is why I replaced the O2 sensor and all the ignition components (coil packa, plug and loom). No codes have been coming up lately despite the ongoing issue.
    • Hey pber13, unfortunately still no luck. At this point the following has been done with little or no success: - Spark plugs replaced, gapped to 0.8mm - Splitfire coilpacks installed to replace originals - Replaced Ignition Coil/Coilpack harness with a new genuine nissan one - New fuel filter - Replaced AFM/MAF sensor - Injectors have been thoroughly cleaned with an online flush (without removing) - Upper engine and inlet decarbed - blew tons of black smoke out, cleared the carbon deposits from the top of the engine and exhaust.  - IACV removed and thoroughly cleaned with carburettor cleaner - O2 sensor replaced with new and genuine one -  Smoke test revealed no vacuum leaks - Healthy compression test of 160psi across all 6 cylinders Overall the car does run a lot smoother now, no backfires between gear shifts like it did originally... but the rough idle when warmed up is still there. It may not even be a misfire but simply a rough idle. Seems crazy to me that so many people have had this issue and seemingly no one has gotten to the bottom of it, or at least never bothered to post if they did! Hope you have more luck than I did pber13, I'm at a point now where I'm just going to try to ignore it unless it gets worse. Would love to fix it but I've genuinely run out of ideas of what it could be.
    • I got the full frenchys kit too. Really awesome kit. Easy to install my only complaint was the hardlines I think could be routed differently (I modified mine) but I realise the kit needs to suit multiple applications. This was the hard lines before I modified them. They were touching the wastegate pipe. I ended up reducing the distance between firewall and first bend. The made it so they tucked along the frame rail.
    • Deeve, I don't suppose that you've made any progress on this? My Stagea has the exact same problem, and just like you, I've read through as much as I can online, with no real progress. My car isn't throwing any codes at all, which is a little frustrating. I've changed plugs, checked the wiring and harness. A new MAF gets here next week, but I'm not hopeful it will solve the issue.
