Car started to hiss on boost from somewhere around the brake master to intake area was quite loud in car. Also had a 4wd and hicass light on that I've been working out over last few weeks.

Was also due for a service so did oil filter , oil , plugs and got given a set of second hand good nick super spark plugs and a igniter , also moved a few earths around as voltage had been low later since a sparky worked on it .

Car started great volts were over 12 my guess 13-14 everything on including lights no probs, 4wd still not working and hicass lift on ,

Took it for drive steering the best it's been very light everything going well take of in first and then rolling give it a steady boot full - pulls hard then once off it develops a miss ? Like it's dropped a cylinder limp home and it's idle almost normal till I give it some revs and the miss is very loud

Turn of and it doesn't want to start again

Clutch pedal was making weird noises and felt crap so pulled that off today and found a few things fixed it up and sealed it up put it back together also found pipe between intake and brake master thing in the corner was a weak seal .. Clutch is now feeling good but it won't start still - the starter is cranking hard volts are over 12

I don't want to be negative. But it sounds like you are having a problem, then you immediatly jump on here asking questions, then you go look at stuff and find problems.

Please go and have a proper look over everything and test things out properly first

    • Ok so will run the piping over that radiator and no plenum it is. Put that money towards a Haltech and see what suits. Any ideas something like an elite 2000 or 2500 right? My long term goal is 300kw e85 and manual swap and that’s a dream come true. For now will be 200kw and auto the stock rb25det neo intake isn’t too expensive with throttle body. If I was to have the port matching done, Would that be better than the stock de intake as the det has bigger holes plus has the spots for sensors etc? And suit more long term?  appreciate the advice?   
    • You understand AFR is not the only thing that contributes to it pinging yeah? Funnily, what the AFR gauge will tell you when it likely is pinging, is going to make you think things are really safe and good.
    • Run the piping how we all have for decades. Also the duel runners with the +T setup dramatically helps it gets on boost quicker. Yes, chase huge power it'll become a problem, but you're a long way off when you're already saying an aftermarket ECU is out of the budget. You also say NisTune as it's simple, and then immediately say it'll be painful, meaning... It won't be simple. It will likely cost you a lot more stuffing around with a Nistune, than just putting a Haltech or similar in.
    • I’ll order an afr gauge to keep an eye on it.  Then will get a haltech soon 
    • TD05 or maybe pulsar PSR2867r Gen 2?  id love a garret but it’s quite out the budget for now and I’m not chasing crazy power.    yeh fuel pump haven’t looked into but whatever works, kind of last on my list.    Nistune because it’s simple but Ik it’s a lot of pain especially as I’m auto +t with the whole seperate TCM etc still investigating that. Haltech id love but once budget tight for now atleast.    finally the reason I’m trying for a plenum instead of the stock intake is I already have a standard Intercooler mounted etc. so the ports are on both sides so trying to not have to go over the clutch fan radiator etc. trying to find a good deal return flow if I don’t than this will do for now I guess. btw any ideas with that, apparently some people have to cut blades to reduce it from hitting the Intercooler piping over the radiator ? Thanks
