Thought it was solved guess I talked to early. During a cold start the car barley wants to keep on. whole car vibrates and shutters like before. Afr/s are in the 10's and vacuum still showing single digits. I have to literally keep foot on gas pedal to get rpm's up to stop shaking slightly. After holding rpm for a minute give or take a few seconds and pedal released, idle raises and car somewhat behaves until warmed up a little. Once warm it still has a little stutter but not as bad as at idle/cold start. Car revs cleanly and during normal driving conditions vacuum is the mid to high teens, during decel vacuum is in the 20's on boost guage but when settled at idle vacuum is back to single digits.

Exhaust cam gear is advanced 6 degrees. Don t know if that is the cause of anything but would just like to give all the information about setup as I can. Also plugs are gapped extremely tight, i believe them to be about .,5mm gap.

Tuned the car a little and now running about 17 to 20psi. Boost feels to come on a bit later, but when it does car pulls like a jet plane. Its just the idle leaves much to be desired at cold start when warmed sometimes it seems to drop a cylinder and idle raises and holds to above 1100 but that's only after boosting and I blame that on the mixture of methanol and fuel as i have meth injection. My water temps have also increased to like 102 degrees Celsius just idle and normal driving from about 95/98c driving under boost on hot days and no matter what i do they do not drop. I have a dual core aluminum radiator with a shroud and two ten inch fans running off a thermostat and a nismo cooler theromstat. The system is filled with a full coolant mix and a 50/50 premix.

Do you think the exhaust cam advance or installation of the new cams has anything to do with the increase in temp? Also why is idle vacuum so low? While driving under vacuum it seems normal and also on decel, but at idle its in the single digits. Not saying its wrong just would like to know if it is normal.

It looks like one is switched on all the time, the other is switched off all the time. The point where they cross would be the approx best point for switching between on and off.

Correct. That was just to show the internal feed works final tune is different to that

    • Yeah so when you turn key to IGN the fuel pump should run for a few seconds. If you find the fuel pump relay (and have a multimeter, and a second person) to can check the relay inputs.  One trigger pin should be either fully earthed  The other trigger pin should get 12v from the ECU for say 3 seconds when you turn key to IGN, and at all times that key is at START (note, I said this from memory, it may be the other way around, ie one pin always has IGN 12v and the earth has continuity to earth when you turn the key) One Pin should have a good battery voltage The last pin goes to the fuel pump + Also note that if the power to the relay is good, and the relay is working, it is worth checking the pump has a good earth too. There is a computer in the standard system that increases the earth resistance to slow down the pump when not required, pretty old school and it may have failed
    • All this talk about fuel and fancy ECUs, meanwhile my poor old R32 has neither.... When the ignition is turned on, should there be power running o the fuel pump constantly or just for the few seconds it usually takes to prime the pump? About to go have another look at it, have watched some YouTube vids on how to use a  multimeter and looked at some wiring diagrams but really have NFI what I'm looking for because electricity is invisible  
    • Yuh....but weren't all the supertourers, except maybe the Audis, FWD? I don't recall any of the others being AWD.
    • They ran them in Oz Super Tourers too https://www.supertouringregister.com/register/vehicle/212/ (I'm so old I remember racing with Matthew Fox) They ran them in Oz Super Tourers too https://www.supertouringregister.com/register/vehicle/212/ (I'm so old I remember racing with Matthew Fox)
