Hi Guys,

New to the forum, Owner of a 1995 R33 GTR V Spec.

Having abit of trouble setting up Nismo AFM's and 900cc Delphi Injectors(Only just installed)

Previously had 448.9hp at the wheels with Nismo 600cc injectors and standard AFM's

I think my dramas maybe with the HKS evc-s boost controller (I hate the thing!)

does anyone have any advise or tips to setting up the boost controller correctly, currently gets to 21.8psi and goes crazy.

and or are the 900cc injectors over kill for this set up? I still have the nismo injectors so can put them back in if needed.

Modifications are

3.5" full system turbo back,

Forged built engine - CP Pistons & Spool Rods

Nismo AFM's

Delphi 900cc Injectors

HKS 272 Cams

Ported Head

HKS 1.5mm Head gasket

Garret 2860-5 Turbos

Apexi Power FC With hand controller

Tomei cam gears

Split Fire Coil Packs

ARP Bolts throughout

walbro 460 fuel pump

Tomei 1.5mm Block oil restrictor

any advise would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers Ben

The PowerFC needs to be setup properly for the AFMs and Injectors too as Grant said otherwise funny shit can happen. Get the tuner to have a fiddle with the controller once fuel/timing is sorted to try and hold a constant desired boost level as each controller is a bit different and can take some time to get it working properly.

Not sure what you mean exactly after 21.8psi it goes crazy. 22psi for that motor/setup is perfectly fine, a graph or any information on what is happening can help. Torque or power curve dropping off? Boost dropping off?

The EVC just controls boost

The PFC controls everything else.

So if you have a boost issue, it's the EVC. If it's anything else, that can only bee the way the setup is in the PFC or something else is up the creek like fuel pressure (if it's fine to a certain point of 21.8 and goes wild for example).

All of that though, tuner/workshop can easily diagnose... It's basic 101 checking time if that is the case. Gonna be hard over the internet.

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
