Thanks skyginer.

Looking to paint the car now it's off the road for a bit as the converter ate itself on the weekend so I think I will do a rack and pinion steering conversion e85 and paint job over the next few months.

Gearbox fixed again. New ecu lt16c with flex fuel and dash installed drives and runs smoother than the lt12 that was in it before. Just waiting for a drum of e85 to arrive to finish if the flex tune.

Looks like I might be looking for a bigger turbo now the gearbox is sorted. Lol

I hope it all works for you,

Gearboxes must be getting hard on the pocket and with the extra power comes extra stress on everything.

But it is all part of modifying these things , trying to get it all to work together and hope you have not over done it, haha

Hard not to try and get what you want from your ride without going that little bit further to get it :)

Lucky for me the guys at mv in Adelaide have covered most of the cost under warranty. No chance of being over it yet. If it was easy everyone would be doing it that's what I keep telling myself anyway. Lol

Been a while since any updates. Retune with 6boost and new cooler pipes was 350kw on 16psi. Car is apart finishing r31 rack conversion as no one can rebuild the steering box. Also modifying the rear control arm mounts to make them adjustable. Will add photos over the next month.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • 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.
    • 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.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
