Ross from works auto put one of those hurricane filters on for me yesterday, they are supposed to be a huge improvement over the HKS pod filter. Driving home tonight I'd put my foot down with 12psi of boost and it'd cut out as soon as it hit 12psi, so I dropped it back down to 9psi and it was misfiring bigtime at the top end and didnt feel like it was pulling past 5000rpm... any idea's? think I'll go back to the HKS pod and get a refund.

Ken - did Jeff say anything to you about the car and what i said?? I hope I didn't get you in  trouble

Nah , Jeff wasn't there and as I said , it's not a problem.

Only saw the car you were looking at outside in the dark and rain.

Didn't look too bad but can look at it closer once you decide if it's the one you want.

Cheers

Ken

Lack of restriction causing overboost and lean mixtures.

Seems strange cos I didn't think there would be that much diff between pod filters.

    • Hi guys, I’m new to the GTR scene. Picked up an R33 GTR earlier this year that needs a lot of love. I’ve been going through the hot side, changing all the gaskets and while it was all off I managed to score a set of -9s. It still had the stock ceramics so I was pretty happy to get the 2860s.  I live in a small country in the pacific with 0 performance car scene. No dyno’s no performance parts, let alone stock parts for a skyline. I order everything from Australia and do it myself. This means I’ll be running the stock ECU. Maybe down the track I’ll get an aftermarket set up and do a remote tune.  Will the car run -9s on stock tune safely?  I have a very heavy foot so I really hope so 😂   thanks guys   
    • perfect, no rush to address the leaking bush then, it's not doing much/anything
    • I'm not sure if it will bolt up, but.... I'm reasonably sure that the ID of the runners is somewhat smaller on the NAs. So it probably wouldn't be a good match at the flange where the top and bottom meet. So that would be a reason to not do it. And the skinny runners would be the bit you're keeping, which would be a reason to no do it. You'd want the big runners if you were doing any work to swap stuff. Why not just use what you've got, like nearly everyone else who has +T'd an NA? You don't need or want the TCS throttle or other stuff that is specifically DET inlet/crossover.
    • lol already been put in temporarily 3 years ago
    • Makes sense. For actuators, if the pressure itself isn't adjustable, that would mean I'd need to think about 2 different actuators with 2 different pressures on paper in order for them to work at the same time if the turbos behave differently. So measure the difference in psi needed to move both, and then get an actuator to match that difference. Assuming I cant get rid of it by adjusting the arms.  You're exactly right, never happens in gear 1 or 2. I can occasionally get it in gear 3 if going uphill but its very small. Only ever in 4 and 5. Seems kind of backwards that one of the points of VCAM is faster spool but if it introduces shuffle then it actually slows spool down.
