Good luck finding a core that size.

There is a reason it is a custom job.

PWR make their own low resistance cores from scratch, so they can do whatever size you need.

You may also want to check that it WILL fit.

As stated, I have not made a mock-up from cardboard yet (funds are going elsewhere more important - so I won't be anytime soon either), so I would suggest that you make sure it will fit before going any further Andrew.

Cheers! i'll run them drawings by my friend for a custom job :banana:

will have to go thru his book of cores to use now!

keep me posted....before summer would be awesome. Might be better to keep to the original diameters in the pipe though as it will reduce modification for a straightbolt on version....yes/no?

P.S. At the size posted Cam, what are you going to do about the thermo fan? Will it fit?

P.S. At the size posted Cam, what are you going to do about the thermo fan? Will it fit?

Should fit with the standard thermo fan... maybe.

I went that size because it looks like it may fit under the bulk of the thermo fan.

The fan motor stops us using the taller coolers (unless you remove it for a slimline unit), which is why I went 80mm deep.

Should have almost the same volume as one of those huge Greddy units.

I should mention that the ARC cooler is 100mm and fits behind the RS front bar easily, so you could, in theory, get away with an intercooler that is about the height of the Dolphin unit 190mm IIRC, and be 600mm length which would give you closer to the Greddy volume, but would be very unobtrusive.

Craig, Ive got and electronic boost controller on mine and it still drops off boost a little in the top end I think its because the turbo is too small and doesnt flow enough at high rev's

Hi Dan

Have you checked your PCV valve? When Craig changed his he said he had more boost and mine was seriously bleeding off as it was totally rooted. My PCV valve was sticking open and only getting 9psi.

Just pull it out, turn it upside down, if the plug falls down and leaves it open then it is stuffed.

I replaced mine when my turbo was smoking b4 I got the gt30. Mine to was bleeding back into the motor under boost.

my rpm is not steady anymore!

hmmm....!!!!Don't want to say anything but........how bad?....when was your last oil change?

lol the turbo is fine dude, but yes it DOES need an oil change. which ill do soonish........

How is the Haltech going Craig?

Has the tune given you the benefits you wanted?

what has the biggest gain power or economy?

Cheers

Andy

LOL....F$#KING GOOD QUESTION ANDY

Economy is awsome.....getting inbetween 9.5 and 9.9 on the freeway....could only ever get 7.8 to 8.2 before.

Power from 2,500 till 5,000 is absolutely awsome as well!!!!!!....pity I cannot rev it above about 5,000rpm without it losing power or backfiring...apparently this is normal because knowone ever rev's there car past 4,000rpm :D ....so I am told!!!!......lol...your f$#ked if you have a high flow like me according to them....being that I highflow only starts working properly at 3,800 on the M35.

I have no good news other than I will get it sorted and one day my car will rev to the limiter again!....even though I have been told that this is not normal for people do :) ....will I release the information one I get it sorted back to Maltech? NO!!!!! :D ....well no unless they are willing to pay for it as I am having to pay for the R & D myself....you would think that this being the first M35 they would be anxious to do this.....but no!...... apparently I am a pain in the arse because I want my car to rev to 6,500rpm without backfiring or losing power.

Will I ever go Haltech again? Up to them.....but if I get it sorted first.....F$#KING NEVER!!!!

What conclusions have you come to Craig?

I have issues with my ecu also as the throttle lag is bloody dangerous. Im hoping to find a spare ecu in japan and ship it to KSrom for a chip. From what ive read they have fixed the lag and im guessing the airflow r&r issue. As they are so cheap, they are possibly the best option if you already have a copgyback,(cant write p*ig? totalitarian website developers!) at least untill someone here cracks the ecu.

I should have gone E-Manage and don't listen to sales bullshit again!!!

1. Checked with the dyno guy to see that he had clamped the voltage on the signal from the airflow meter. - Done

2. Checked this is even worth going ahead with by doing a long trip to see wether fuel consumption was better - Done

3. Have tried dropping the boost all the way back to 7PSI.....still has the same problem just with less power. - Done

4. Cleaned airflow meter, throttle body and fliter - Done

5. Need to find someone to make up a bigger airflow meter unit to reduce the voltage and see wether that work....will have to go back on the dyno though.

6. Go down to VIC one day and see wether Cihan can fix.

8. Suggestions ...... I will try anything

All else fails I will sell the Haltech or burn it.

    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
