Sounds like you need to just fit a MoTeC and be done with it?

If I had a spare 10k that would be the best option but I dont. PS2000 and a cable throttle will do the job for 2k plus install. :thumbsup:

sucks!

got mine overnight lol

See, it was worth spending the extra $300 to get them overnight :)

Had mine for more than a week & still in the box. Maybe this weekend...

lol shuttup

You must have got just japs last set aaron. Now its a week wait, so it may as well be 10 days and $100 cheaper.

yeh i think i did grab the last set,

Did anyone with an intake notice that they ran particularly rich when backing off? Before the e-manage tune of course.

Nope.

But then again, I don't have a wideband

I was running cat-less for a while (suction pipe/dump/kakimoto de-cat front pipe/Fujitsubo Legalis) but never had the pop that Iain was talking about. Nor did anyone ever see flames for that matter.

The Fcon has a miss which im not happy about, probably caused by the emanage being in the circuit still. That and the cams not coming on make it feel very laggy, it feels dead down low until I get above 4k, looks like the Emanage is the better option at the moment. I may end up going with the PS2000 soon if this goes nowhere.

Dude.

Rip the fkn emanage out (maybe you should mention that the tuner didn't remove all values from it, let alone uninstall it, so the engine was receiving signals from the OEM ecu, Fcon and emanage. Now why do you think it didn't work properly?)

Get rid of the cable throttle (although I love that the car was running... with cams... last night with twin throttle bodies in series!!!)

Get rid of that throttle sensor thingo.

Connect Fcon and tune.

Also, make sure the sensors are connected to the loom correctly.

Then perhaps talk about the Fcon "not working".

I don't understand why you guys are making it so difficult

As an aside, my Fcon will be going in on Saturday... if I can get that serial cable from ya (tomorrow?).

Nope.

Well if it was like mine you couldn't have missed it. Just a glance in the rear view & you'd see a cloud of fuel smoke when backing off. Oh & when it cleared, people behind coughing LOL.

Standard intake (with some minor mods) going back on right now to ensure all is OK. Then a rethink....

Nope.

Ive gone back to the Emanage for now, its such a simple swap anyway. I will cut it out at a later date and try again, if I dont buy the Haltech before then... ;)

Believe me, I wish it had gone better but with limited tuning time and not getting the tps signal what were we to do? I want control of the cams and the cable throttle is awesome to drive with so the PS2000 is looking to be a better option for me I feel.

Weak.:down:

No probs. Did you put the cabin filter in as well?

nah for some reason im stuck as to how to do it.. i know theres a how to somewhere. so i might do it tonight if i can find it. needa drop the oil tonight too, wish i got the quick oil drain valve earlier. but i wont get it till next week.

its easy aaron

remove glovebox, unclip cover from the white box behind the glovebox. remove old filter, replace.

be careful as you put the filter in, note the locating tabs on the back of the door, youll need to hold the filter up as you close it so you dont crush it.

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
