I've had the skyline a while now and I've been tuning the powerfc myself with fc edit/datalogit over the seasons to keep the AFRs where I want them. I've recently overhauled the fuelling as I wasn't using the throttle position vs injectors functionality. Supposedly a lot of amateur tuners will set the TPSvINJ to 1.0 and directly place values into the inj adjustments tab, which I believe is all you can do if you're using the commander. Anyhow, I've set up my throttle position curve and I've now been using the recalc base and have now got a much more accurate tune across the power band as I no longer have to add enrichment to areas that were once overly rich as the area would be touched when coming onto boost as well as cruising. Something I've never really got right though is the air conditioning! It's a right pain, my fuel map is perfect for what I want. I'm sitting at 14,7 on cruise and 14,3 at idle as my cams are 264s and don't seem to like sitting at stoichiometric. I come onto boost with AFRs of 12,5 and sit around 11,8 on max boost. The problem is if I'm just driving around normally at stoichiometric and then decide to turn air conditioning on, everything goes nuts! The AFR jumps to 15-16.. It seems calmer when in driving at steady throttle at high rpm, I,e, 100km/h / 62mph but still a lot leaner than I would like. So, with that said, and apologies for the wall of text above, can anyone help with the following: - 1. I've been led to believe that air conditioning is temporarily disabled when on boost, true or false 2. Is there any sensor value that I can use to determine when air conditioning is on and add enrichment to the mixture? I've looked at battery voltage, temperature, etc and just cannot seem to get it right. 3. Is this just a limitation of power fc and is the air con a problem for most people? Most tuned cars I see have had the air conditioning removed

Anyone have used Benchmark Evolution Solutions to tune their RB26? Hows the experience? -
I am looking for a tuning map for a R33 GTR running a Apexi Power FC. Will be using a laptop for the tunning. My GTR has had the following installed: Garret 2860-7 with HKS Actuators 9:1 CP Pistons 4 inch exaust from the Cat Its running stock injectors, fuel pump ect. I am just looking for a map that has the correct details to work from, obviously every car is different and needs fine tuning. I have searched SAU and while there are some great tips (Looking at you Paul), I haven't found any actual map files. Any help would be appriciated.

Dear Seniors I just got my R33 GTST and am intending to convert it from AT to MT by December. I am also going to tune up the car to a Drift Ready state maintaining street drivability. I have the intention to do the following in due course after my MT and Exhaust initial mod and am looking at advice on Viability and availability: 1. Handling - the standard stuff like Coil over, Tower Bars and ARB. Looking for recommendations. Plus Advice if member braces are required? 2. Handling - Looking for advice if it is advicable to remove HICAS. I am looking to change my steering to one with quick release BOSS but can give that up if HICAS is more recommended. 3. Turbo - I am thinking of a Garette GT0376 or similar (Prefer Ball Bearing so the IHI comparable might be a good alternative) Looking at 1.2bar Boost Max... Any Engine mods required or recommended? Stut bolts? Pistons and Con Rods? Actually I might lower the boost if i need to take the engine apart. 4. Intercooler - the natural thing with Turbo would be a totally trick FMIC... Please recommend... 5. Auxillary parts - Fuel Injectors, Surge Tanks, External Pumps... 6. Most important part - The Brains!!! What ECU is popular here? Where can I get competent and affordable tuners? Where is a good hub dyno that wun cost me an arm or a leg? I am familiar with most modern ECUs like MoTec, Power FC, and F Con V Pro... I am unable to touch Motec and F Con due to the large amount of wiring works, Power FC due to computer connector... So I'll probably need someone to install and tune... Glad to receive any advice... Cheers
