Coilpacks are splitfires with maybe 30,000k's on them

Technically they should be able to spark a 1.0mm gap with no issues. Unless you have some awesome knock issue that's squashing your plugs shut. But doubt it

Swap your coil packs with Birds and see how you go

You guys pretty much live next to each other

Yeah, or you could volunteer your own coilpacks and time!

You wouldn't want my coilpacks for testing, I actually need someone else's to test an issue with mine :/

Coilpacks can fail after 500km...defects happen. Could also be an issue with your coilpack loom.

I do have awesome knock issues :/

During the tune Trent said he had to pull a bunch of timing out of the top end to battle the knock... Then at DECA it was stuttering up high when I was boosting hard in 1st / 2nd.... On the pan I had to keep it in 2nd so I wasn't limiter bashing 1st...

I saw the engine check light flashing... it got up to 65 knock, a week after the tune. in maybe 30c heat after less than 30 seconds of hammering.

More than a little worried about Sandown tbh

Fark I might be fuel actually.... It's not the same kind of power drop that I experienced when my stock coils died...

Fuel pump is an in tank Walbro.... I think its a 255L pump

AFR's on the tune looked alright, I'll upload a pic of the AFR graph when I get home.

This is the misfire when my coilpacks were dying.... The power drop is similar, but no sound, which would make sense if there was spark, just no fuel to burn....

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • 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.
