only a bees dick of room for the turbo didnt think it would fit for a mo!

Exactly why I figure supercharged is the better option, despite the fact that the oil filter needs relocating and the power steering needs a little rerouting too.

my mate put the vortech kit on his 350z and got an extra 60kw at the wheels.

mine is on the dyno right now so i will be interested to see what gains i get.

pick it up in the morning so will post results tomorrow night

That's 81 hp at the wheels which is ok however the kit has a crap pulley as standard.you can get a different one to up the boost which is his next move.that means more money and retuning but if you change the pulley you can kiss any warranty you get goodbye

hp at wheels untuned tried a few different ecus with limited success haltech want me to ship car to nsw because they've never done an auto before but thats not gonna happen wired a new ecu up last night and its doing everything it should but not counting my chickens. if no go then off to to-mo for the uprev osiris but thats not cheap

You can do Uprev for 1/2 the price of a Haltech.

Auto can be done with a Haltech - but its not easy, and I suspect that no-one in the west has done one before. It was described as "hell to wire in" to me, thus I went uprev.

Please tell me your not running the car up to full power with no tuning? If you continue, you will break the motor.

no mate just one careful run to get an idea as soon as it was lean we shut it down. The new ecu works well on auto xr6ts so should be good. All hooked up with no issues, dyno shortly. The 123456 firing order was a surprise though.

    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.
    • House of Fatz dry dock needs a clean sadly one of the long time stables is leaving this weekend   see ya mr purple
    • Hence why I've only modified my car into a pure daily. Everything has to remain reliable & roadworthy, while providing value and grin factor. It also must not be handcrafted to the extent that the car will be immovable if something breaks because you cannot get or make a replacement to at least limp around with.
