I remember years ago standing in Chapel St, overhearing some wogboy talk about his VL turbo...no shit, I heard the words "stage 4 blow off valve" come out of his mouth

Yo, where my Jerrycans at?

I got home with the fuel guage sitting right on E, and 1/2 a jerry in reserve. Perfect.

I'm still not sure how I'm going to get them back to you.

We filled my car Friday night and it got home on just over half a tank so pretty happy with that.

whos doing wtac this year?

Me, attending not racing.

Does it make the noise in all except 4th or in all gears?

With the clutch in / clutch out?

Can't remember to be honest, pretty sure it's all gears.

Clutch out.

Damn, I think I went through about 45L getting home :/ Cruising off boost (but I guess the intake leak would have made it richer than normal)... However, it used over 40L for 240km on the way up as well.

40 / 2.4 = 16.6L/100k (mostly off boost, but a few little squirts)

No rush on the Jerries, won't need them all for a while (until the next long distance track).

Where do you live again? I'm in Vermont, work in Cheltenham

Mine wasn't too much different then, probably around 40L for 220km.

I'm on the other side, Altona Meadows/Maidstone so not a quick trip.

I'll organise to get them to you at the next meet hopefully or sort something else out.

Clutch out.

If all gears and does it when sitting there in neutral with the clutch out, could be input shaft / throw out bearing or yes, spigot.

If it does it in neutral, find out if the sound changes (louder, higher pitch) as you rev the engine...if so, then it's most likely the above. If it doesn't do it in neutral and the sound doesn't change with engine rpm then it will be output shaft or a diff.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
