hi,

why would i be getting hesitation on boost? i can switch between 10 and 13 psi. there are no problems at all before the turbo starts spooling and hitting boost. but as soon as the turbo starts kicking in at around 3000rpm there is hesitation and lack of power.

i am running bcpr7es-8 ngk copper plugs. should i be running bcpr6es-8 instead with my boost? the plugs are new btw.

ive checked for leaks, nothing wrong there... i have new splitfire coilpacks. timing is at 15

could the tps be causing a problem like this?

any help would be appreciated.

thank you

Did you mess with the plug gaps at all? As in, did you open them up or something silly?....When did it start missing? After you changed the plugs?

i didnt mess with them. all 6 are brand new gapped at .8. the car isnt misfiring at all. ther basically isnt any power on boost, u can hear the turbo spooling up, but instead of feeling the power kicking in, the car hesitates/stumbles. this only happens in the rev range when the turbo starts kicking in, otherwise it drives perfectly.

ive also noticed that if i gradually accelerate this hesitation/stumbling goes away. but if i hit the accelerator hard, then u can definately feel the problem, the car basically gets no kick from the turbo.

im running a standard ecu which has been tuned

LOLLLL

What the hell did you expect?

Get an aftermarket ecu, nistune or someone with a real time tuning board to make an epprom chip up for you on a dyno. Oh and obviously pay someone to actually tune it properly, don't get a cheapskate $200 tune.

hey mate when it does its little spit, say youre on full throttle at about 3500-4500, does it feel like the cars pulling a caravan then once it gets up to say 5500 and beyond it clears up and makes full boost?

You do not know what he means by 'tuned', thus should not be jumping to conclusions.

The RB20 ecu has a socket for a rom chip that can be tuned (painfully) as well as any other daughterboard modified ecu.

To the OP, recheck your works and try installing the actuator from the turbo you removed and running stock boost.

      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...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      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.

      Could it really happen......

      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.
