umm just curious but why would it being a stock turbo make a difference? unless he's running smic? i would've thought timing and fuel would be his main issue here.

That was in reply to John asking about when full boost hits. As it's a stock turbo it would be on full boost quite early, and there is a lot of timing in that area. (And pretty much everywhere)

you clowns obviously do not know how the ve on these things work, that tune looks kinda okay in the fuel maps and timing maps, if you look at a stock r33 bin image it actualy runs MORE timing up top!

ffs. ve on these things reference to another 2 places in the ecu to decide on the fueling.

now i am starting to understand why tuners lock their maps.

you could tune that ecu with most values in that fuel map at 50.

this ecu does not use a maf, its map based.

it calculates the ve a number of ways, rpm, map, ect, iat, etc etc etc.

they are a really good ecu, ve is better on the autronic and adaptronic though.

good kiwi company. what are the haltech's like? am looking at one for my mates pulsar GTIR.

a lot nicer IMHO, however you pay an arm and a leg for it. The software is more user friendly and the windows fit things nicely on a standard 1366 x 768 laptop screen

ive tuned many haltech's and link's / vipec... and i rate the belovid Kiwi's link and vipec over the haltech on any application every day of the week.

the link is better, the software is great... everything is on one drop down menu on the left side.... and the software is very customisable to show what you like while tuning.

the haltech is great also, would prefer it over many other ecu's on the market. but i really rate Link / Vipec.

So the fuel map after 60kpa is not to blame? Running 12psi boost.

^ do you have a wideband installed on your vehicle? I suggest you do that (when you get a new motor).

It's the timing map you should be worried about, not so much the fuel map.. Yes AFR is an attribute to kapowing motors, but in this instance your timing map stands out.

I won't say much about your map in public, PM if you want me to explain.

the haltech is about $400 cheaper than the link here. but based on what you say sounds like the difference might be worth it.

are you comparing the same ecu ? plugin for plug in ? extreme vs ps2000???

that timing map is not the reason why this engine went bang. it is not an ideal map, but it aint going to hurt anything. it could have been tuned a bit harder.

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree.
