That looks neat but 2 questions

1. Can an aftermarket pod fit underneath the box or is it an entire replacement for the stock airbox?

2. How does air get in? Or is it more of a heatshield than a proper airbox with duct.

it looks to be more of a heat sheild but hey thats what i was after =)

as WinK said wheres the air come in from ???

you could probally duct it up from under the box where the old intercoolr piping was, have it suck from the front bar !!! CAI yay!!!

i still hae one question tho whats it like for removal and install cause i dont want cleaning it to be a bitch =(

i made a duct from the front bar....air can get in from around the head light and stuff... its a box for aftermarket pods... so you dont get defected.

cleaning the pod is easy as removing three allen head bolts that hold the lid on

installation is easy as too.

cheers

also making radiator panels, finalising design, pics will be up soon.

Linton I'll volunteer my car for an R32 testbed if you're interested. I will be making my own in a few weeks anyway.

And your R33 looks brilliant! You cant see much from your sig/avatar; the pics in the gallery are the money, and she looks great!

will be doing other cars soon. i havent quit my day job so i can only do so much with my evenings, waiting on more equipment to make job more professional...

getting into anodizing shortly too, watch this space!! imagine anodized cam covers, cooler piping, inlet manifolds, brackets, anything aluminium...hell even an anodized head.

cheers

replace the 3 Allen key bolts with thumb-screws like you can get on the back of computer cases and you have a winner. I'd deftinatly appreciate not having to pull out the Allen's every time I want to get into it, less tools the better.

Where in the Valley are you? I havent seen you around and your car is almost identical to mine.

are you sure its not defectable?!?! It looks great! wouldn't mind doing that with my car, if you're 100% sure its not defectable :D

its a fully enclosed box housing the filter securely....every cop that has pulled me over has asked whats under it and i just say an air filter....the scowl at me and then look for other things.

    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.
