Pretty much as the title says. It's and auto s1 stagea but still just a 25. All stock except bov have been plumbed up. had this issue before I did that. Read heaps of forums and did most of the things suggested (cleaning aac etc) afm seems fine but hard to call. Any ideas? It's drivable but will stall out when you back off at a slow rolling speed so I pretty much idle through carparks.

have you set your idle correctly? get the car up to temp stop the car...unplug the tps....start the car...turn the idle screw on the aac valve till you have it idling at 750. turn car off...plug the tps back in.....if it still runs like shit after that it could be your tps.

Cheers badgaz will do that in the morn. Bov has been deleted completely and made a new intake pipe

Why?

Put recirc bov back on.

The reverb screws around with the airflow meter reading leading to the issue you have described.

Well, your initial post isn't particularly clear. I suppose you are in a rush for people to help fix your problem.

Somehow bov plumbed up equals blocked off?

Was it previously the stock bov recirculating as per stock?

I usually pretty much idle through car parks also, lots safer than boosting through them.

Superben. Firstly thanks for a mature comment. the engine was completely stock in every way and had the ssame issue. As for the bov, New intake pipe deleted that line, blocked other lines and put a plate over the bov where it goes into the manifold.

It's not the issue.

As for idling through Carparks I have no issue with that. It's a daily running stock boost. It IS drivable. just any speed below around 50km if you completely release the throttle it will die the revs down to almost a stall.

Productive comments are appreciated. if not fk off to boostcruising. Cheers

Typical as the new guy to a forum you would ease into things before potentially offending knowledgeable people who were willing to take their time to help you.

It's pretty hard to judge someone's true character based on a few (or even alot) of posts.

Not sure if your trying to have a dig or not. Signed up and posted in hope of getting some useful feedback from other owners, which in fact I got. The other comments are useless and there's no need for them. I referred to boostcruising for obvious reasons. I thought maybe a website dedicated to specific cars might have been a little different. Maybe your all having a lend and think it's funny? Sorry can't tell, this is text after all. I have stated that positive feedback is appreciated and will continue to thank those who are actually knowledgeable and offering their help.

+1 for BOV not helping the situation.

I have an auto R33 atm and since putting a Blitz atmo on back off it almost stalls. But I live with it for the hektik doses it does :yucky: ..

I'd be pressure testing the system for leaks as they will also create stall issues along with the bov set-up..

    • Photo of manifold showing gate location? I mean, it's 6Boost, so we probably shouldn't be worrying, but always wroth knowing what the layout is. Plumbed back to atmosphere? Or into the dump?
    • Yes correct. Also, I'd avoid applying it to soft paint (however I doubt you'll ever have to deal with it in practice). So any paint that hasn't fully hardened, could be a 1k paint that never fully hardened or it could be a 2k paint that was laid down thick and hasn't yet fully hardened. 
    • Bit of an update to this one. Having some issues on the dyno that held us back (boost spiking) and I want to pass some info over you guys and see what you think is wrong with my setup. The current readout on this dyno is 462rwkw on a low reading dyno so keep in mind it is a real world 500rwkw setup on a hub dyno. Don't read into the power figure too much as a sign of the issue. The short and curly of it is: 2.8 Litre Racepace build RB25 NEO N/A Head with VCT (internally standard however ) Borgwarner EFR 8474  Turbosmart 50mm Straight Gate + Mac valve 6Boost Manifold 4" dump to full 4" exhaust (nil restrictions) Wastegate plumbed back in and all angles in the exhaust system are acceptable and not too sharp. GFB SV52 BOV in cooler piping  Turbosmart BOV in EFR Housing   The issue we are having is it comes onto full boost for example at 4000rpm and spikes to 24/25psi, before dropping down to 17psi before slowly rising back up to the target boost of 23psi. It was extremely uncontrollable and the tuner actually had to ramp in boost progrssively with each 1000rpm on each boost setting we selected to try and reduce the amount of spiking. Sometimes we would see a drop of 10psi from the peak at the beginning of the run, to the low, until it took the next 500-1000rpm to stabilise back up to the target boost. The tuner is pretty confident that the straight gate is just a poorly designed product and leaks too much boost upon cracking the gate open and theres no way to fix it other than going to a poppet valve. He's also confient theres no ignition breakdown or floating valves. The fueling is extremely stable as well. Turbo speed is somewhere around the 109,000rpm area. The spanner in the works for me is that prior to this Borgwarner and StraightGate, the car was tuned on -5 twins at a diferent tuner, and he also had issues controlling the boost with it spiking around the same rpm range, so to me this sounds like the same issue and it can't be anything on the turbo side as this was all changed and I think the behaviour is extremely similar, if not the same. We also removed the mac valve and did a run on wastegate pressure and it still spiked and had the same behaviour. My thoughts on possibilities are: Boost Leak VCT Cam Gear isn't reliably activating consistently - (On this however, we did a run with the VCT disabled and the boost still spiked) Turbosmart BOV is not handling the boost? However this seems unlikely to not be able to handle 20psi. I have a couple of logs that I can't make sense of if anybody knows how to read them and can obtain further logs of other parameters if they are not enough, happy to pay for anyones time. The dyno readout with the power figure is the most recent last week. The other picture is from two weeks prior to that where we couldn't break 400kw (we removed the cat), however the issue of the boost control persisted. @Lithium @Piggaz @burn4005 @GTSBoy @discopotato03 I've tagged those that were quite active in recent pages here, no disrespect to those that know turbos well but I missed tagging.

    • I recently purchased a 2018 Infiniti Q60, which has an SD card navigation map. I can see my system has options for real time traffic updates etc, and am wondering if there is something I can purchase to get this working? I can see there are at least updated maps for USA and Canada, but nothing for Australia. Surely Infiniti took changing road systems and city expansions into account when they decided to use an inbuilt navigation over Android Auto/Apple Car Play, or are we doomed to drive on streets that don't exist in the navigation system if you drive to a new area?
