safety...

yeah, thats the other possibility i guess, running to rich and just flooding the plugs so they get clogged easily. Although i would have thought it would be leaning out. Actually Cyrus: why *are* you trying to go above 10psi with stock cooler and stock ECU = badness.. summer will hurt you.

well this not only happens at over 10psi, on rare occasions it happens around 7-8 psi, under open throttle conditions, meh I dont really want that, be good if I could turn the turbo off for a while as i will be riding to work for a couple weeks seen I want to pay Beau off as fast as possible.

Damn petrol being>$1/ltr, sucks to own a turbo car :P

search function is my freind:

In my opinion the big advantage of the SAFC 11 is the ability to tune part throttle A/F ratios separately from full throttle A/F ratios. With earlier versions the tuner had to compromise, eg; too rich at part throttle to get full throttle OK. This affected fuel economy if you compromised rich and risked engine damage if you compromised lean. With an SAFC 11 you can have a bit of cake and eat it too. Not all the cake though, that's full ECU (as in Power FC) territory.

The SAFC1 's have great extrapolation though, so the lower number of load points is not as big a handicap as some make out.

Skylines run closed loop, therefore if you don't boost the car the AFR's should be 14:1 and won't use much petrol:D

Yeah I am running a turbosmart bleed valve boost controller and after this thursday i am going to turn it down as low as i can go, which is 7psi according to our local hero, i didnt really understand what all this talk about wastegates and dunno really how turbos work, so I didnt argue with him :P

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
