Only person I know with aftermarket ecu is EVLR33 - he bought Kens PowerFC before I could get some money together.

Can get a new PowerFC + HC from Nengun for $1700 delivered. If I knew that would solve the problem I would order one tomorrow & prepare to be castrated:)

Yep - that's the problem though cos you can't expect them to spend their time testing things without getting paid.

Might ask Brett about his PowerFC. Might also order a new harness cos I can get one for $600, just have to wait a few weeks for it to be made & sent from Japan.

I don't mind one that's not new, but I believe there is a bit of work installing them so it would make sense to put one in to stay, therefore better not to risk one that may also have problems.

Then again, depends on how much I can get a second hand one for - I already borrowed one off Ray last year just to check against the mess that the japanese owner had left - used to be able to stall the car by jiggling (hmmm...images non car related come to mind!) the harness near the ecu.

Yea , Yea , I'm here . Geez you whores make hard to catch up.

Phptf , stop trying to hit in Lauren , we were all here first.

Micko , I'm still thinking about the problem but I'm leaning towards AFM 's or wiring still .Don't think a new harness will cover that bit.

Cheers

Ken

Hey Ken - hope I didn't get you in too much strife today! Seemed like you relished the chance to take a break from your household duties anyways:)

Car was idling at 1100rpm on the way home with a/c on. Switched it off & revs went to 1300??? Started later & idling was at about 600??? What the?

    • If there's enough meat in the housing where you want to put the M12 adapter, then do it, but be aware that if/when you f**k that up you'll probably be repairing it before doing anything else. I'd just drill it out and tap ina 1/4" thread. No need for rocket surgery when the next most obvious thing will do. You could throw a 1/4 x 1/8 bush in there and use the same fitting you intended to use.
    • Is the only issue that the oil catch can is getting filled on hard runs? I'd be thinking more about oil control issues rather then the head lifting, especially as you aren't seeing spiking in the coolant pressure.  Do you need restrictors in the head, or better drains from the head? Does the sump need venting to the catch can?
    • Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose.  and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.   
    • Looks great, I hope everything is working well after all that time!
