Yeah mine was fine, but the next day it was no go. Pulled it all out and realised the pickup had come off, probably due to using the wrong hosing which had warped after being in fuel for a night.

Then was told it was wrong pump, then told it was ok.

So the orginal is in and I need to install the Bosch again *big sigh*!

shane what went wrong?

i did mine and it seemed to go fine

nah shane, the stock pickup reaches into the tank heaps more than the 040

the 040 is built into the pump so the pump has to be mounted further down the pickup

i havent run it down too far but i pushed it down to the empty bar and it was still running so i think its not too bad

probably the best method is too actually soak the rubber in petrol overnight so that it expands before you put it in..

my pickup fell off.. drove it around the block few times.. opened it up again.. saw it had come off.. put it back on.. drove around block.. opened up again next day just to check .. seems to have been ok since.

yeah... it was a bit difficult to find the spot.. but i checked the stock spot a few times just to see where it sat stock.. then made sure the aftermarket one went in exact same spot.

james: do you have a bill from your work yet?

    • 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
