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.

    • To be determined, Luke, to be determined. 😁 Definitely the car
    • It might be worth having a good look at the chassis behind the bumper then; most people prefer the series 2 look so it might have been changed to cheaper parts as part of an earlier repair
    • The car itself a series 2. I was just curious about the headlights and just wanted to confirm that they were series 1. Good to know the rest of the front end is series 1. It’ll be easier for me to find parts on the aftermarket side of things lol
    • If you've wired up the coils & injectors properly, & have the neo CAS loom for the trigger, it should all work. The VCT works the same way so just different plugs between s1 & neo. Assuming DBW if no IAC. Don't bother with the stock boost solenoid with g4x.
    • THERE IS NO IAT SENSOR ON ANY SINGLE TURBO RB. And the one on an RB26 is not for "engine control" - it's really too big and too slow and is only used for over-temp alarming (as far as I can tell). Anyway, you don't have one. You want/need one for the Link, then you need to buy one, find a spot for it, and wire it in. You do know that the stock boost solenoid is not capable of "control", right? It is merely on or off, for the low boost (5 psi) and high boost (7psi), which the ECU enforces mostly based on gear. The stock solenoid is not for PWM control and is not plumbed up in a way to provide it. If you want to control boost properly, then you need a proper MAC valve. And yes, you can wire either of them direct to the ECU. Well, I assume you can - I don't know what the boost solenoid pins on the plug and play Link are capable of. They really should be as capable as any normal Link - but seeing as it is plg and play, it might be limited to stock functionality. Read the doco.   You really do just want to plug stuff together without understanding how it works, right? I can't help you there. I don't know the plug types or pinning on half the stuff you're asking about. If I had to do it I would sit down with the wiring diagrams, the car/looms and a multimeter and work out what is what.
