Take care of michaels car :thumbsup:

good friend of mine

So bro, (op)

What happened to making the decision yesterday?

You have all the information in the world. All of us have elaborated so much in this thread, that you should know by now what you would much rather want.

Have the invoice on my work desk. Will be paying for a set of -9s first thing tomorrow morning

Ahh thats the michael u mean. Bout to start swapping his turbo's over. Then injectors and a tune. Should make a little bit more than the 210kw he has at the moment

No Greddy dump/front pipe extension. Standard AFM maxing and I didn't want to push past it. I'm happy with what it makes and it pulls like a f**king train all the way to redline. Thinking of going Nismo AFM later and playing with the cam gears a bit more to make it more responsive, while making a bit more power.

Which is what I don't have. Need to sort out a big 4" high flow cat or something.

You should be into the 300s with 19psi

That would be choking your setup and a quick simple install and retune and car will feel

Even better

Okay, bumping up this old thread!

-9's look like the best for the response.

However, if someone was to go -5's and threw in some Tomei Type R cams, would we still be talking about this huge lag?

I'm pretty new to this, but I would think a set of cams built for response could indeed reduce this lag? Maybe even Mine's cams hehe

You simply won't be able to to put cams in to combat the size of the turbos when talking about those two choices. Yes that big difference in lag will always be there although you may reduce it by a bit It's not going to go away completely and won't ever be equal between the two turbo choices

A set of -9's and low duration cams would be heaps for the street.

However, if someone was to go -5's and threw in some Tomei Type R cams, would we still be talking about this huge lag?

Larger cams will not magically give you 500rpm better response on the street or on/off throttle.

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
