neo head, 26 bottom end. 26 manifolds, best of both worlds.

That involves more effort... I'm talking just getting a s2 25 AWD from a stagea and dumping it in as is.

Will cost $1k + labour and most importantly look like a 25 hence providing epic fanboi butthurt

Mike likes to over complicate things.

Need to smash the mantra of KISS into his head.

We don't think it's done any other damage, can't find remnants anywhere else. No bearing material floating around and bottom end APPEARS fine from a wiggle and inspection.

Pulled out onto riversdale road and gave it a little bit in first gear, went to change at about 5k rpm, looked down mid change and saw light was on and gauge was at 0 so turned it off and pulled over.
I have a feeling that pulling out and crossing over but still driving parallel with the tram tracks is what did it, all the wheels having different amounts of grip. Started raining 5 minutes after I pulled over too just my luck! It's a standard pump, getting replaced with an N1. I know it's not an amazing replacement but I'm not spending a grand on a Tomei pump, and this brand new versus an almost 20 year old standard pump, should be fine!

It's also getting a sump baffle extension thingy, kinda like the Tomei style with trap doors, only its an extension welded onto the standard baffle.

Oh and did I mention -7s! Hnnngggg

I'm about a second or two slower than you on most tracks, I don't know how to drive yet though...

Will be repairing intake manifold gasket and switching to E85 to squash these detonation problems before the next day.

Got a wedding on the 31st of Jan, so no Philip Island WRX Round 1 for me... :( Was hoping for a late summer PI

    • 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.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
