do you have the boost control kit?

when the PFC is data init'd to defaults the boost kit is turned on by default

this means, if yours was "reset" and you aren't using the boost kit the engine check light would remain on until you disable the boost control kit

the PFC has no limp mode or back out mode other than what the stock ECU has

and this is your typical if AFM is dead, cap rev limit at 2500rpm etc - really basic rev cuts and idle protection

it wont know if your fuel pump is being gay or leaking fuel etc

im not sure, it has a setting for boost control i think, but i have a HKS EVC as well, so not sure there.

BTW here are the mods:

RB26

Trust T78-33D

PowerFC w/Commander

HKS EVC5

Trust Manifold

Trust External Gate

Tomei Type-R Poncam

SARD Injectors

Adjustable type fuel regulator

HKS Pod Filters

Z32 twin AFM's

Trust Intercooler

Trust Oil Cooler

3-Layer Copper Radiator

Low temperature Thermostat

Turbo Back Exhaust

My god son get it to a tuner it's obvious that the tune is on default maps - and by the sounds of it if there is no fuel leak than you must be hosing those bores with fuel. If it's got an issue withtge maps not storing than ashas been said check the keep alive batteryinput into the ecu - if it's good get a new PFC.

gave it a basic settings change last night, car is now running fine (albeit with less power and tonnes of lag)

for anyone interested, these were the settings i was given:

Seq.turbo cont ... default = on ..change to OFF

Inj/AirF Warn. ...default =on...change to OFF

Knock Warning ... Default on .....Leave ON

O2 F/B control (O2 sensors) ..Default =on...Change Both to OFF

Idle-IG Cntrl....(O2 Regulation) Default =on.......Change to OFF

then turn my injectors (beleived to be 700cc) down to 75% from the factory 100%.

for some reason the first setting (seq turbo) wasnt there, instead the boost kit option was there. i did everything by the notes, and left the boost kit on just to see, got a huge fuel cut, and sent the knock to 30. turned the boost kit off, and it seems to have disappeared.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
