The car back fires a bit now, is this a common thing?

Not sure if its related to the rear muffler or tune related. Its like its throwing out unburnt fuel on deceleration. Its extremely loud

What ecu are u using?

Its a Wolf 3D V4, and a turbosmart raceport atmo BOV was put on with the rest of the gear.

Its only back firing in the lower revs driving normally around town, it doesn't cough or blow flames on WOT

It doesnt run an AFM its a MAP sensor setup

I've heard the japs don't even use AFR they just use exhaust temp and go rich as hell and smash the timing into the motors.

This is good. Engines out of cars should be able to be used in boats...... and held flat for a day or 2.....

They live long and happy lives then.

Wow, ile show you a pic of my SR20's piston when I tuned it to 12.5:1, half the side of the piston melted lol was at 18pound though. I'd never tune above 12:1 now.

what is your peak timing @18psi? what where the egts?

The difference between 2 degrees of timing to effect detonation is as much as going from 12.6:1 A/F ratio to 12.0:1 (or 12.0:1 to 11.4:1).

I found something similar in practice, on a hot day with my old tune 3rd gear ~18psi rattled like crazy, could hear the det without knock ears, a minute later 2 degrees out of peak torque and we could idle the car for 10 minutes getting the coolant >85c and it still wouldn't ping in 3rd even listening on the ears.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
