6boost are monitoring this thread. I didn't buy them direct.

I was certainly monitoring the tune, had my wideband O2 hanging out the side pipe. I kept the boost down as I had no head room left. Plenty left in her with more fuel. I'm half expecting my damaged to be oil surge related to be honest.

Flow tested the factory manifolds against the chinese stainless and they flowed 50% less, 6hrs of porting the OEM and got them within 15% of the stainless.

Interesting info, any idea where the 6boost manifolds stack up?

Hmm bugger...

So what was the end result with the manifolds? in terms of power/response gains-losses.

I didn't get it on the dyno. However:

1bar was made at the same point, but may improve if it was retuned

my 1000cc injectors maxed out at .35bar less boost so the car makes more power no question

No losses anywhere.

Idle is less stable however....

Yeah shithouse ay.

Are you going to make any significant changes to the engine power wise or are you just upgrading the oiling side?

Still keen to see dyno results back to back...but theres no denying seat of the pants feeling, except for placebo effects :)

It will certainly be on the dyno when it's back together. I don't think I need any more power...can't imagine what it will go like on 1.8bar. May fit the bigger plenum I have here while its out.

Is it a MAF based ECU?

thats no good about the engine! from past experiance no3 or 4 spinning and the rest of the bearings ok tells me oil debis. as they are the first to get oil. and the first to get any contaminants aswell. where as if its no 1 or 6 then id look at oil starvation as a posible cause as they are the last to get oil.

unless a grub screw fell out or something..

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
