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....

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
