Yeah just google the part# on the AFMs, that will tell you what they are. The standard ones won't support over about 250-280kw so they have probably been changed.

Not that it makes much difference unless you are planning on modifying it further, and in any case you would ditch the AFMs and move to a MAP sensor when you put a modern tunable ECU in.

Yeah definitely planing on updating the ecu down the line. Wanted to enjoy the car and save up some more before I start making changes

Welcome. 

Not to be a negative Nelly, but is also possible someone has purchased and exhaust or similar and just thrown the sticker on the valley cover.

Either way, if the motor sounds healthy, you should be fine.

Looking forward to updates.

I managed to get a video of the car running. Maybe the car is just idling normally? I showed this to one of my mates and they thought it was normal idle. I thought it was a small/slight cam(?) or something else. What do you guys think?

Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.

    • 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.
