Yeah though i saw your car there, is it the Red/burgundy one sit on the hoist with SAU sticker?

Saw Tein lying on the floor and i was like lucky bastard :) , hope you got the right Tein though cos' i used to have DRIFT Spec on mine and end up got rid of it. Couldn't hack with the stiffness and side way actions when the road is wet.

Also nice power curve there, had my SAFC tuned by ice as well but curve wasn't as good as your, maybe it was late so Nigel did a quick tuning job and it wasn't on Ice dyno either ( like i was told ) cos' they got some insurance problems therfore i end up got almost 200kw@wheel :(

i originally had some tein hr's on my car which were boned and not only were they stiff, but felt like they just dropped into the bumps in the road, so bad kidney pains for 3 years of having the car lol

these tein flex are awesome, still stiff, but they dont just drop with a thud, feel so nice

had someone tailgate me last night on the way home after a long drive back from chelt>city>highpoint>home, now i never really speed up or anything, i just go the limit, plus it was raining, so when we get to a main round a bout, i stuck to the 70km/h limit on the outside lane in the rain, not a budge, then accelerate a bit more coming out of it, and was fine, little bit of a loss of traction but nothing to major as i didnt floor it

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
