Electronic boost controllers in general are more reliable than bleed valves. I don't see what you're saying...you're getting a manual boost controller and you're saying that electronic boost controllers give you problems?

Putting it on 11psi will make a noticeable difference to power assuming your car has no fuelling issues...remember it's not a tuned 11psi so don't expect the best from it.

I think you should be devoting more time to practicing your 0-100 times on the edge of a freeway during the late hours of the night. There's no point fitting your car out with this stuff if you can't get the 6.2 seconds or so that a stock GTS-T with good tyres can pull. Turbo cars are tricky, it's a fine line between bogging down with lag and wheelspinning to the shithouse...practice until you get that fine line without fail. I've beaten Porsche Carreras because the drivers can't launch/shift to save themselves, in a manual Soarer. The fact your buddy has an auto takes the driver out of the equation for most part, you don't have this advantage.

with pi ggyback AFC NEO, pod, 3inch turboback, fmic, ebc @ 11psi (stock turbo), bosch fuel pump, hiflowed injectors

my car made 197wkw. and 0-100 recorded @ greddy turbo timer was 4.6 secs with 18inch 265re001 at the rears (was told the time from turbo timer is just for reference its not that accurate but yeh)

imo just dont f**k up the launch and youll do a good time

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
