Sorry, big night.

Yeah, so as Z00key said, the car has a really rough Idle. I originally thought that maybe, somehow it got some dirty cheap fuel in it, so I ran a fuel treatment and topped it up with BP 98.

Took it for a drive for about 15 minutes, gave it a small amount of crap just to test. It's misfiring (i think?) when you plant your foot. just a couple small pops from the exhaust.
Got back home, Engine was Idling almost fine, but it was still off.

Let it sit for an hour, started it again and the problem was even worse, the entire engine shakes in sync with the exhaust poppage.

Maybe dirty coils or the spark plugs are on their way out. (I do have new Spark Plugs which I haven't put in yet, because im not confident on my gapping).

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
