new design that Etm is doing it allows there to be a full gate without the pickup being in the way he just modifies the pump to use the outer port and blocks up the inner port and welds on a speedflow fitting to the sump and that's it

Seems pointless as many, many, many cars are tracked, dragged, street driven with internal pickups.

I'm getting it all done for a good price sans if not cheaper then a asr

and if you think about it there's probably less work you don't need to extend the pickup and get it in the right position and when the gates and baffles go in you don't have the pickup in the way it's just a straight farword winged gate

external pickup is what I have done, I have a box welded in the center of the sump with a pipe from that to the side of the sump with a AN-12 fitting all welded together then a AN-12 braided hose to the port in the side of the oil pump

it's a shorter, smoother run and the oil isn't running through a hot block gathering any extra heat soak and was alot easier to set up then a custom internal pick up and the ID size of this setup is bigger then the feed through the block, I opened up the side of the oil pump to except a bigger fitting then the 1/2" npt fitting thread the Nitto pump has so I have a minimum ID of 16mm

the hardest thing on this setup was drilling a hole through the A/C bracket so I could keep the A/C

that's exactly what I'm doing and you just helped out heaps I was trying to work out how to keep the ac iv just started a little fabrication shop from home so iv been flat out on other cars at the moment and haven't got to mine hopefully ill get to work on it soon

      @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.

      I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.

      @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation.

      If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.

      I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
