Yeah sounds like a turbo timer or possibly immobilizer issue.

But the question has to be asked, why are you letting the car idle for 5 mins? If it was sitting in traffic I could understand, but if it's to warm the car up, don't. There is no point letting the car idle to warm up. It just wastes fuel. Start it, let it idle for a couple of seconds, then just drive sensibly until it comes up to temp.

i have no idea

just a video of the car idling?

well im sure but u,could be the aftermarket fuel pump as someone stated on here.

I'll go into kyp tmz

IT HAS NO TURBO TIMER

& reason why i let the car idle?

is because i would like to know that my car is good and everything is going well.

but i was planning on getting a turbo timer installed

If it runs fine on boost then it wont be the fuel pump.... not directly anyway. There is a small chance there is a problem with the drop resistor but I doubt it.

It has no turbo timer, but does it have an alarm that has a built in turbo timer or something along those lines? Dont think it would but still

Might sound silly but, maybe try idling with the handbrake off (chock the wheels). See if it idles longer.

perhaps in some way there is something connected to the brake like the immobiliser, similar to how a timer should be hooked up?

I could be trippin' though. ;)

Yeah your right haha i even tried with the door's closed/open lol

but yeah i'll give that a shot tmz.

since the car has a Boost T i tried to whine just to see if it works

found it doesnt even whine to any direction hurt my fingers.

now im not even sure if the psi is higher or not

i vs'd a stock r33 with same mods n left it by like 2 car length's

vs a mps that flogged the r33 badly n i flogged it by a car length

the mps's is running roughly 270-280

n the mods i have are

fuel pump

full 3"

radiator

Boost T

do u think the boost is up or nah?

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
