hey guys:

got a problem. ive got an rb25. ive just fitted a high flow tirbo (bearing and steel wheel). full exhaust, tubotech bleed valve, cold air, cooler. Whilst tuning it the guy says that its over boosting to 15psi in the high end boost range even tho its set to 10? it made 235rwkw?

any ideas why this may be??

turbotech does not have pre boost settings to work with, its over boosting because of a mechanical issue that is possibly related to the boost controller itself.

you need to play around with pre loads on the spring etc to get the controler working correctly. 15psi spike aint too bad for your setup, as long as its not leaning out and it tuned for it then you should just leave it

sounds dumb but how long is ur bleed valve hose and where is it plumbed in.....just make sure the hose is as short as possible and picks up pressure as close to the intake housing of the turbo as possible, otherwise ull be prone to higher boost spikes

sounds like a typical bad combination of wheels and a poor job on hi-flowing the turbo

they are the two reasons for OVERBOOST in your circumstance.

To be certain - remove the actuator, if its still doing it - 110% the turbo is a shit job.

agreed im seeing so many dodgy high flows lately from so called small boutique turbo shops.

Check your wastegate opening and what dump have you got? Some people have problems with splits for a dump and the wastegate has trouble opening or releasing the gas. Your boost tee could be another problem.

Borrow a friend's electronic boost controller if you can and see if that helps any.

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
