Hi all, Just building a rb26dett engine with sps (special piston services) pistons with perfect seal ring set (PS1). The piston is 20 thu oversize not sure in regards to ring clearance because second ring is gapless one.

If anyone has used this rings set or has experience with this combination it would be appreciate it a lot. Not sure to fellow the clearance given or go higher. On the sheet with the rings set it says turbochargered engine.

- Top ring 0.005 - 0.007 per inch of diameter bore.

- second ring Gapless 0.003 - 0.005.

Same as normal rings. Cut to the specs given and a little bigger is better than to tight always. ".001 more" it won't make a difference.

And watch the thin ring on the gapless second they're weak and tough to get square in the bore. I just use a old piston with the oil ring left on. Puts the ring down around 10mm and square.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
