yep kind of looks that way...guy buy stuff off ebay, realises it needs some major tuning and gives up on it...

please dont say its running a stock ecu....

It's an awesome microtech bro!

must have a seriously big spring in it if it wasnt opening before...

There was no vacuum/pressure lines to it before, so it wasn't opening at all, nor was it controlling the boost as he has said.

Now he connected it up by running vacuum/pressure lines to it, and it is opening, but dumping straight to atmosphere.

No pressure source, it won't really open.

My 14PSI gate won't open without a pressure source on it.

And I'm betting it's a stock ECU... Since everythign else sounds stock...

Oh god... A microtec...

Pull your ebay turbo off, pull the looking like aftermarket manifold off.

Shove it and the microtec on ebay.

Buy a standard exhaust manifold, and purchase a stao high flow with Adaptronic ECU.

Reliable turbo, fixed up exhaust system + decent ECU all done quickly and easily.

Don't waste money tuning it twice.

probably the most solid advice i've heard. Waiting for money to come in before i can make such a drastic build though, baby steps. Any suggestions on turbo models for rb25det?

As per the original post & subsequent post relating to '2007' rego sticker on the windscreen, as mentioned, I hope your for your sake & the rest of us enthusiasts here that you actually have registration & insurance on that thing...........

are you srs.. :| Ofcourse it's rego'd w/ insurence. -.-

plumb the wastegate back into the exhaust and it will be quiet again, are you running a stock turbo cause it sounds like it..

LOL

Seriously you put a screamer pipe on your car and are wondering why it is too loud? Maybe the above suggestion is a good one.

edit: You drove it without the wastegate hooked up? You are lucky you still have an engine, surprised it didn't blow up from overboosting, you need to get it tuned asap because it could be pinging it's tits off.

edit2: holy shit you don't even have a screamer pipe you were just venting it open in the atmosphere??? Suprised you didn't cause an engine fire, you've probably destroyed all your rubber hoses now. Stop driving the car!

microtech lt-12

Worlds worst ECU, get a stock ECU with nistune or something half decent.

Seriously save up a few grand, get the wastegate plumbed back into the exhaust, then get a proper ECU tuned, if you haven't already you WILL destroy the engine and your engine bay driving it like this.

Counting down the minutes until you burn the car to the ground or put a rod through the block, can't be more than a week away now.

are you srs.. :| Ofcourse it's rego'd w/ insurence. -.-

How did it pass RWC in that condition??

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
    • FYI: Racebox RE7R Custom Tunes Released!   https://goracebox.com/.../2017-infiniti-q50-q60-re7r-tcm...   FOR GEN 2 (21+) VEHICLES, PLEASE SEE NOTE AT BOTTOM See more   But whomever tuned your car is the tuner you should go back to, AMS, Sonictune or BT Tune....
