Recommended Posts

Guest EVL-R33

ey, just finding a bit of a problem not sure what it is exaclty..

its pretty hard to explain and maybe im just getting used to my cars power,

but it seems not to be going as good as it was b4 not pulling as hard and at the higher rpm where more boost kicks in due to the solidnoid my car starts to like cough (hard to explain) it just cuts on and off but not all the time, some of my friends think its the Cold weather as it happens more in the early morning when ice is falling, another reason could be is i have a lil tiny crack in my ciooler piping where the clamp sits?

can any1 help?:confused:

The little tiny crack could do it - could open up under boost, releasing some of the already metered air.

Also, might be detonation with the ECU retarding the spark (unlikely).

I'd get the crack fixed.

    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
    • Hey mate, really appreciate the help. Have been looking pretty extensively myself and was certain they were retro fitted, but then ended up finding a 4 door with what looks like the same side skirts or at least the closest I’ve seen.

    • Isn't there a PAR engineering gearset that has closer to stock ratios? And they claim they'll do whatever ratios you want.
