In perth there is no ultimate so i was looking 4 some octane booster and i found a great old guy and got chatting about Jap imports and porformatz cars and he was saying that bp 98 was realy not good modding the skyline cause of Japan is 102 to 104 ron

I mean are people pinging and doing damage and spending loots of money with out and possible neglecting wat fuel that they use + a highly modded car would have a couple of Kws more due to fuel

and

they quot 187kws is that at 102 ron caues at 98 would would loose a bit

do you think it is worth the $20 a fortnight to use octane booster with bp98

hell no. the car should be tuned around the local evironment and should not rely on the user adding octane booster each time to keep the ron count up. this means if you get a bad batch of fuel and / or forget the octane booster the car, depending on ecu may ping itself to death. the car should always be tuned around local octane fuel

good point i never thourgh of that

this guy was saying that he sells it to the porch dudes so i gave it a go

my 33 is a weekender now so the $20 a fortnight is nothing

Octane booster makes the plugs turn into some type of chicken?

Foul i think.

For $20 a fornight, you would more than half way to having a power FC in a year.

There is nothing like a good tune.

There is not much difference between the fuels regarding power production when coupled with a good tune.

To be honest, the main reason that I buy 98 isnt because I think its "better" but i definatly find that it gives better fuel economy (based on previous cars) and less emmisions.

    • 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.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
