Today It was my first startup after my single turbo conversion on the gtr.Every thing double checked , I entered the new injector info in the d jetro then when I go to start up ,it starts,then dies after like 2 seconds.If I tap the throttle on and on it will stay on but its struggling,also won't pass 3000rpm...

for the injectors ,correct me if i'm wrong. old size /new size 444/750=0.592 x100 = 59.2% then new latency - old latency [email protected]= 0.01msec

So I entered 59 % for correction and .02 for latency ..cause theres no .01

I also turn off the boost control feedback and 02 sensor feedback.

My map sensors are tee'd of the pcv valve,and the car never ran with the pfc before.

Can someone shed some light on what could be wrong?

I checked your calculations for correct and latency and they're correct (assuming you are sure you have the correct injector size and latency for the new injectors).

I can only think of 2 things, you need to do the idle procedure here: http://paulr33.skylinesaustralia.com/docs/...erfc-faq.htm#21

And the other thing trying a different source to T the map sensor.

PCV valve IS NOT a vacuum / boost source. You need to T off the FPR, or some other hose connected to the plenum.

If that still doesn't solve the problem, you need to adjust fuel &/or timing in the idle area of the maps.

Alot of people have been runing the map sensors off the pcv valve with great results and others told me to leave the fpr have its own vaccum source .

For the injector size and latency I found the latency on this site http://injector-rehab.com/kbse/lag.htm Siemmens deka 750's = .76 @ 14v.

Noticed today when I raised the fuel pressure the car stayed on a little longer but not much..Also when I reset the pfc and left it on the stock injector settings it also help staying on longer then the actual new injector settings(stays on for only 5 sec).

did you ever do the base idle adjustment on this PFC? has this PFC ever worked?

when you install a new PFC you need to do the idle adjust and self learn to make sure it idles correctly

this is covered in the PFC FAQ under new installation steps.

if this PFC used to idle in the past check the basics such as fuel, spark and sensors

Yes it has worked on someone elses car,I can't get the car to idle at all,it dies to soon so I wouldn't be able to do the idling self learn.Could it be anything with the Idle control valve?

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
