no, emts (and others) mean, what ECU are you using to support the different injectors?

you cant just change injectors and expect the ECU to figure it out, you need to tell the ECU what injectors you have, if non-std 370cc

your options are

remap the stock ECU

get a piggyback ECU option

get a stand alone ECU

either will let you run larger injectors. with STD ECU and anything other than 370cc injectors your car will run like ass and it's a timebomb

im surprised the tuner didnt check or ask you or refuse to tune it with std ecu and different injectors

did you tell him it had non-std injectors? did he ask what ECU

or have you just failed to list it here?

there is nothing to figure out or nothing to do your head in.

it is a simple yes / no question.

if you have a remapped ecu, aftermarket ecu, piggyback

a) get it remapped / tuned again

if you have the standard ECU

a) remap the stock ECU

b) get a piggyback ECU option

c) get a stand alone ECU

or your last option

remove the aftermarket injectors

YOU

CANNOT

RUN

NON

STANDARD

INJECTORS

WITH

A

STANDARD

UN-MODIFIED (not remapped)

ECU

yeah you dont need 440cc injectors with std turbo

the std turbo will run out of efficiency before the stock injectors do

so sell them and spend the money you get back on a piggy back or ECU remap

the piggyback or ECU remap will add a bucket load more average power everywhere and make the car heaps quicker

you should peak 200rwkw with those mods + ECU remap or piggyback

but the average power will be up heaps more over the std ECU and boost controller

plus youll have to avoid the factory boost R&R around 10psi so its a crap setup even if you just ditch the injectors and tune it

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
