Hello,

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

I'm about to finish the single turbo conversion on my R33 GTR motor, but not sure what to do with the two O2 sensors?

When going single do you splice all wires into one sensor?

Also what about MAF's? I picked up a PFC D-Jetro, and previous owner used two MAP's? I still need to pick up a MAP harness from Apexi but i'm curious does the harness plug into MAF wiring or gets spliced at another location?

Many tks!

Do you really need them?

A good tuner will be able to tune better than any effect the O2 sensors would have.

I've had them disabled on all cars/set-ups for the past 7 years.

the powerfc faq has a specific section on the djetro install, i suggest you check that out

from memory the djetro map sensor input wires run to the same afm input wires on the loom

but the map sensors steal power from the boost control kit port (from memory)

the powerfc faq in my sig has a link to a pdf which shows the diagram with the kit installed etc

the powerfc does an average from the sensors

so for map sensors you really should run two as apexi intended, installed in the corrrect location

dont guess, dont pick a random spot, read the install guide and follow it to spec

the 02 sensors again pfc uses an average and you really should run two as intended

either run two in the dump pipe of the single, or if thats too much ass (it sounds like a lot of ass)

then run one 02 sensor and parrallel up the signal wire and make sure under ETC, SENSOR 02 CHECK you have 02-1 and 02-2 with a working value

and if you insist on no 02 feedback then make sure you disable it under ETC, FUNCTION SELECT

I guess I wouldn't need, them there is nothing legal about this car so eliminating them I have no objections.

However, I was curious what is the most common method here being used? Do most people just splice one O2 into the other allowing them to use just one sensor?

I just bought a splitter harness for Apexi D-Jetro which plugs into maps it seems all plug and play no additional questions there :-)

    • Bit of an update to this one. Having some issues on the dyno that held us back (boost spiking) and I want to pass some info over you guys and see what you think is wrong with my setup. The current readout on this dyno is 462rwkw on a low reading dyno so keep in mind it is a real world 500rwkw setup on a hub dyno. Don't read into the power figure too much as a sign of the issue. The short and curly of it is: 2.8 Litre Racepace build RB25 NEO N/A Head with VCT (internally standard however ) Borgwarner EFR 8474  Turbosmart 50mm Straight Gate + Mac valve 6Boost Manifold 4" dump to full 4" exhaust (nil restrictions) Wastegate plumbed back in and all angles in the exhaust system are acceptable and not too sharp. GFB SV52 BOV in cooler piping  Turbosmart BOV in EFR Housing   The issue we are having is it comes onto full boost for example at 4000rpm and spikes to 24/25psi, before dropping down to 17psi before slowly rising back up to the target boost of 23psi. It was extremely uncontrollable and the tuner actually had to ramp in boost progrssively with each 1000rpm on each boost setting we selected to try and reduce the amount of spiking. Sometimes we would see a drop of 10psi from the peak at the beginning of the run, to the low, until it took the next 500-1000rpm to stabilise back up to the target boost. The tuner is pretty confident that the straight gate is just a poorly designed product and leaks too much boost upon cracking the gate open and theres no way to fix it other than going to a poppet valve. He's also confient theres no ignition breakdown or floating valves. The fueling is extremely stable as well. Turbo speed is somewhere around the 109,000rpm area. The spanner in the works for me is that prior to this Borgwarner and StraightGate, the car was tuned on -5 twins at a diferent tuner, and he also had issues controlling the boost with it spiking around the same rpm range, so to me this sounds like the same issue and it can't be anything on the turbo side as this was all changed and I think the behaviour is extremely similar, if not the same. We also removed the mac valve and did a run on wastegate pressure and it still spiked and had the same behaviour. My thoughts on possibilities are: Boost Leak VCT Cam Gear isn't reliably activating consistently - (On this however, we did a run with the VCT disabled and the boost still spiked) Turbosmart BOV is not handling the boost? However this seems unlikely to not be able to handle 20psi. I have a couple of logs that I can't make sense of if anybody knows how to read them and can obtain further logs of other parameters if they are not enough, happy to pay for anyones time. The dyno readout with the power figure is the most recent last week. The other picture is from two weeks prior to that where we couldn't break 400kw (we removed the cat), however the issue of the boost control persisted. @Lithium @Piggaz @burn4005 @GTSBoy @discopotato03 I've tagged those that were quite active in recent pages here, no disrespect to those that know turbos well but I missed tagging. Cheers 
    • I recently purchased a 2018 Infiniti Q60, which has an SD card navigation map. I can see my system has options for real time traffic updates etc, and am wondering if there is something I can purchase to get this working? I can see there are at least updated maps for USA and Canada, but nothing for Australia. Surely Infiniti took changing road systems and city expansions into account when they decided to use an inbuilt navigation over Android Auto/Apple Car Play, or are we doomed to drive on streets that don't exist in the navigation system if you drive to a new area?
    • Luckily I didn't put in etch primer as I just found out it's not compatible with my body filler lol. Also just need to sand the panel anywhere between 150-400 grit so I'm in the clear there. It does say to not apply to soft old paint, I assume that means paint that is flaking, peeling,etc
    • @dbm7 and @GTSBoy thank you both very much! will give that a shot!
