Right you are Tein CEO and I'm your senior product manager.

"Hi boss we've just developed a new adjustable shock, it has an operating range of 0-10 clicks, any more and they go bang. I've decided to release them with 0-15 clicks to see if users read the instructions"

Do i still have a job?

Look either they click when you turn them, or they don't. If they don't then amount of clicks is irrelevant, innit. If they do click, then count how many from full softon to full hardon, then work back.

iirc the adjustment knob is just an allen key/hex head key. So forgive me, i am unsure of your current status in ability to turn the alleged adjustment module on the coilovers in question - you can turn them now and would just like the knob to see how far it turns, or you can't turn them at all at the moment?

Ok. I have tein superstreets on my other car and the adjustment knob is just a hex shaped rod with a green knob on the end. Its in storage and not that close but will check next time i'm there, i don't think it will tell you anything an allen key will do anyway though.

Make no difference if you have the knob or use a allen key, either way its going to click.

If your going in a direction and its not clicking, you have gone too far, go the other way.

A better way to work it out is to remove a shocker that clicks, remove the spring and compress the shocker on the ground a few times, feel the shockers resistance with the clicks all the way one way and then all the other way around.

Then try the one that wont click in the same way, using what you learnt from the good shocker will indicate which way to turn the one that didn't click.

    • 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.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
