OK,

For example, if i go full throttle in 2nd up to 6k rpm and change into 3rd and full throttle again, car will be really slow to come onto full boost again. it will hit 5psi and slowly creep up to 12psi in about 10sec.

if i do the same but do a slow gear change (about 5sec between gears) and plant it again boost comes on as normal.

car will also boost normal when going from partial to full throttle in any gear.

I thought it was a fuel delivery issue, so i replaced the fuel pump a couple of months ago and that seem to have fixed it. but now the problem is back again.

I have tested the fuel pressure and it does not go below 38psi during the above mentioned scenarios.

I have also run injector cleaner through it. twice

New plugs

New fuel filter

cleaned air filter.

another thing that has come back is rpm dips and rises. When im slowing down, for example going into drive way, when i put the clutch in and go into 1st gear the revs will sometimes drop below 500rpm and come back up again (sometimes it will stall). other times after start up it will sit up on 2000 rpm and will only drop back after i tap the accelerator.

ECU has code 55(no errors).

Car has the following mods:

K&N pod

FMIC

rb25 turbo

3" turbo back exhaust

running 12psi

walbro 255l fuel pump

Is the car just in need of a tune?

TPS dodgy?

thoughts?

maybe i have 2 separate issues here...?

SOLVED.

seems as thought the boost controller was stuffed. it was installed correctly.

Took it out and the car boosted quickly through the whole rev range. should of checked it sooner...

can only assume it was leaking causing idle issues and getting stuck after full boost during a quick gear change.....

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
