Jimbo, I actually thought it was larger than 10mm for the bigger pipe diameter option.

Basically the Greddy unit is available to suit N/A or Turbocharged cars.

From memory, it was available with either 9mm or 15mm hose, the larger diameter being for use with turbo cars.

booritz:

check this page,

...down under the head gaskets and injectors, there's 2 types, the 500ml squarish one and the 1000ml round one.

since i'm a sceptical guy i thought i should go for the square one for 2 reasons.

1. i've seen the square one before and thinks it looks the money and

2. i dont trust something when it boasts more yet is cheaper than the lesser product.

you know what i'm saying...

ps.

i'm actually buying from Nengun as its cheaper and they support SAU, just using this page as it explains it better

Jimbo: I know the ones, I had a good look at both while I was in Japan.

I have only seen the squarer versions on sale here.

I just checked the Greddy offerings and I stand corrected, the round shape tanks have a 9 or 15mm option, the squarer tanks have a 6 or 10mm option.

Bare in mind the hose that comes with the kit in garbage and probably wont be enough for you anyway, as tosh said, UAS has some spring reinforced hose that perfect for such an application, or you could go the braided option which is considerably dearer.

I have the square one in my 33 gtst

It came with 15mm connection

The hose that comes with it is generally too short

I found to buy new hose, I could only get clear 16mm that is oil resistant.

When you use the 16mm hose the earl hose clamps that come with the kit will not fit. too small in diameter

So I end up buying s/steel braided 3/4 hose 6 feet long and 7-off speedflow hose clamps total cost was about $130

If you use 5/8 braided line which is the closest to 15mm to suit the oil catch can, it will not fit onto the pipes on the top of the engine, that is why I went for 3/4

there is 2 ways to plumb up the hose to the catch can

I decided to replace all the hoses on top of the engine so it all matched

I removed the metal tee piece of pipe from the exh cam cover and reused it.

I then got another 90 deg bend the same as the inlet cam cover from another engine and inserted it into the exh cam cover. I then joined the 2 cam covers together using the tee peice. Ran 1 pipe to the catch can, then ran 1 back to the inlet where the factory one originally joined.

I have attached a photo that will hopefully make it a bit clearer.

it is not the best picture, but it is the only one of got at the moment.

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
