ok well, prehaps some history on my car first off will help, i brought it 8 months ago, was a awesome car, drove nice, engine made good power and ran smothly. after a few months the head gasket blew. so i repaired the head with a permaseal mls-r gasket and arp head studs as i plan on pushing a couple of atmospheres in it. I finished the job and after a few minor tuning issues car was going good again. then about a month ago it developed a boost leak, after a little bit of hunting i found two largeish leaks and repaired them, but the car was never the same, and now the car is hard to start (mainly due to the power fc and the engine not getting over 500 rpm on start up i think) idles low has little power and still feels like there is a large boost leak as well. Also the vacume seams low, ie it used to idle at say 15 now if i can get is started it idles at 5,

now i have double checked the intake system from the turbo to the head, including removing the intake manifold and replacing the middle gasket. ive checked the tune on the power fc and everthing looks normal, the tutbo is still making boost as all three boost gauges i have installed, (autometer, standard dash and boost controler) are all showing positive pressure when there should be some.

so basically i need help, any ideas, simular problems and solurions would be incredibly helpfull..

cheers sam

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
