one of your intercooler pipes has come off.

yeah same sort of feeling as a popped cooler pipe but they are all fine, car starts fine warm cold as normal idles fine, revs smooth till 2200 start playing up a bit then by 2500 its just dead, cars fairly stock, stock computer, fmic full exhaust turbo back stock turbo , fresh engine 15000thou ago, its like its rich and retarding really low in revs?

i had a popped cooler pipe that didnt make a diff think boost when to kick in but anyway, dats not his prob.. but do a diagnostic test and see what happens. maybe chuck it on a dyno and seif it is r&r. let us know wat happens wit either one..

i having similar prob at 3000rpm but only when its warm.

ok, checked the afm with a known well working one no difference, pulled the computer out,replaced, forgot to mention it has a piggy backed safc neo, this morning went to drive to mechanic, was fine, totally normal so stuff knows what it was, have myself a power fc to get rid of the piggy back hoping this will fix the problem once and for all

The 2500 RPM rev cut is due to limp home mode and is caused by a faulty AFM signal. When you had the SAFC fitted you would have cut the AFM signal wire to the ECU and installed the piggy back to fudge the AFM signal. I would be checking you SAFC wiring if no problem there then the SAFC is playing up. Limp home can also be caused by a AFM signal that is out of range.

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
