ok - as pm'ed to Sydneykid:

Firstly, I will describe my car:

Series1 R33 GTS25t

Mods:

HKS EVC4

3" Turbo back zorst

CAI pod filter

NGK coppers @ 0.788gap

Cleaned induction system - AFM, TB etc.....

Ok, when boosting at 3000rpm/0.82bar i get a slight ping, only audible between those concrete barriers on the highway. I turned it down to 0.76bar and its ok. Whats causing the ping at low rpm? I've done a search on SAU and can't really find any specific info applicable to me. The problems i can think of are:

1. Dirty injector(s)

2. Tired fuel pump

(dont think it the first two coz it seems to be ok up high @ 0.76bar)

3. Turbo is getting hot at those low rpms (fix with FMIC)

4. Just bad fueling/timing coz of stock ECU (temp. patch with adjusting the CAS or get an SAFC as a temp. fix)

5. Blow by gasses leaning it out?

6. Try a colder plug (what do you reccomend for my application)

Could I just reset the ECU so it will learn the increased air flows?

Ross, Are you 100% it's a ping? I run BCP7ES plugs, there a heat range colder than the 6's, gapped to 0.7mm. Stock pump could be going, but you'd expect it to happen under full-load. Might be worth getting injetors flow-tested. Blow-by is more likely to happen at high-rpm.

I'd get it on a dyno, and make sure that it is a ping, then look at the AFR's there the most likely indicators:D

Thats the only time it audible - when the sound bounced off a wall. What else could it be? I think your suggestion for a dyno si the best, that way I can see EXACTLY what the problem is. Hate to buy an FMIC and find out it was just a dirty injector eh.....

    • Ok so will run the piping over that radiator and no plenum it is. Put that money towards a Haltech and see what suits. Any ideas something like an elite 2000 or 2500 right? My long term goal is 300kw e85 and manual swap and that’s a dream come true. For now will be 200kw and auto the stock rb25det neo intake isn’t too expensive with throttle body. If I was to have the port matching done, Would that be better than the stock de intake as the det has bigger holes plus has the spots for sensors etc? And suit more long term?  appreciate the advice?   
    • You understand AFR is not the only thing that contributes to it pinging yeah? Funnily, what the AFR gauge will tell you when it likely is pinging, is going to make you think things are really safe and good.
    • Run the piping how we all have for decades. Also the duel runners with the +T setup dramatically helps it gets on boost quicker. Yes, chase huge power it'll become a problem, but you're a long way off when you're already saying an aftermarket ECU is out of the budget. You also say NisTune as it's simple, and then immediately say it'll be painful, meaning... It won't be simple. It will likely cost you a lot more stuffing around with a Nistune, than just putting a Haltech or similar in.
    • I’ll order an afr gauge to keep an eye on it.  Then will get a haltech soon 
    • TD05 or maybe pulsar PSR2867r Gen 2?  id love a garret but it’s quite out the budget for now and I’m not chasing crazy power.    yeh fuel pump haven’t looked into but whatever works, kind of last on my list.    Nistune because it’s simple but Ik it’s a lot of pain especially as I’m auto +t with the whole seperate TCM etc still investigating that. Haltech id love but once budget tight for now atleast.    finally the reason I’m trying for a plenum instead of the stock intake is I already have a standard Intercooler mounted etc. so the ports are on both sides so trying to not have to go over the clutch fan radiator etc. trying to find a good deal return flow if I don’t than this will do for now I guess. btw any ideas with that, apparently some people have to cut blades to reduce it from hitting the Intercooler piping over the radiator ? Thanks
