My intercooler pipe popped off recently and fouled all my spark plugs, anyway I changed them and I also changed my coil pack harness cos the other one fell apart in my hands lol anyway after changing the plugs and the loom I took her up the street and she doesn't seem to wanna rev any higher than 5k, can anyone suggest why? I can rev all the way to 10 in neutral won't go anywhere near when driving, also feels like a little less power now too.

Yeah all the rest of the pipes are fine. Not sure if it over boosted, I went to over take, dropped a gear and planted it then it went pop lol car wouldn't start and wouldn't hold it's idle so I got it towed and checked the plugs and they were f**ked. Before that she was perfect. What info do you need?

yeah had the same problem on my old s13 silvia kept blowing the pipe off that was attached to the turbo before it went into the intercooler. Turned out to be a faulty hose clamp replaced that and it fixed it.

      Cas issue

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
