Cheers mate well i shall have the engine in about a month so will be great timing :P Roughly the same price im guessing. Shall add some bling and performance to the track car :) not to mention simplifying plug changes :)

Ah that sounds like it will work out well then.

Price will actually be slightly lower on the RB20's as they are a smaller unit - once they are here they'll be up on SAU.

So keep your eye out ;)

anyone making big power on these??

Just had a chat with an old customer of ours Chris, after a year of using our plenum he's going to upgrade to one of our 80mm bolt-on TB's.

He's making some very good numbers (check-out that turbo), and the plenum is handling it all no problem! :thumbsup:

Hey mate my build thread has the RB20 plenum on it. Heres a few pics of it installed. Was easier while engine was out lol. Heres a few picks. Note the fittings are not included picked them up seperately. Everything bolted straight up. Just had to widen where the throtle cable where the nuts tighten onto. U also can use the RB20 cable no need for a longer one :)

Hey guys, how do these stock up against the Plazmaman plenums? I'm undecided on whether I want to run a FFP as I can't see any definite power gains and there have been several cases of where power has gone backwards, which is why I'm cautious. Apart from easier access to some components, what would your advice be? The car is a street legal, which sees occasional track/drift days.

Also, can it come in a raw finish for a stock look?

Thanks guys.

Hey,

We've had some great results with these plenums, if you go through this thread and other's an SAU there is a fair bit on them. We don't stock plazmaman plenum's so can't comment on them aside from being a lot more pricey!

We can do these raw cast or just a rough polish not chrome electroplated.

- Brendan

Could you attach some pictures regarding the raw cast and rough polish ones?? cheers

Hi,

Here is a link to a sample of the raw cast finish; http://e4eonline.com..._CastSample.jpg

The polished finish is similar to the chrome one pictured however less shiny.

If required I can source some more images.

    • @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.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.
