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

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
