stock airbox on with panel filter + lid = car idling badly sounds like its about to stall

stock airbox on with panel filter but no lid = car idling badly sounds like its about to stall

stock airbox on with no panel filter but with lid = car idling badly sounds like its about to stall

stock airbox on with no panel filter and no lid = idling fine

any ideas?

Dodgy air flow meter

Idle sensor might need to be adjusted. It's idling badly when there's a restriction on airflow with restriction, but fine where there's no restriction. Start by cleaning and/or adjusting the sensor till it idles fine with the restriction. If you need to set the idle above 800RPM-ish then it's something else.

if there was an award for "the longest pipe dream" i think i would win it haha

OTOH, you might also win the prize for shortest pipe.

Hmmz i'll look into those tomorrow :thanks:

i justify driving because i fear flights..

when i came to melbourne, i boarded the plane, belted up as tight as i could, and then took a sleeping pill.. =D same thing when i went back.

weak! i be doin the ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZUUTUTUTUTUTUTTUTUUUUUU on the way up. pisses off the person next to you quite nicely

Full licence is win. Still feel bad catching up to cars with Ps to see if they're hot though haha

Haha I'll still do that until I'm about 30 I reckon :P P's = over 18 = legal :D

What's bad is that I still catch up to learners haha. Might have to stop that when I get my fulls..

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
