I've searched and tried but the problem is dragging on.

It all started as a random cut out while driving, the car would jerk once and continue moving, it did this a couple times but was totally drivable. I kept driving and then while going up a hill the car started studdering at revs past 2500, it sounded like it was missing a cylinder.

This only happened while the revs where around 2500 upwards, BTW my cars a manual. Then this studdering was constant until the car had no power and finally stalled not being able to turn it back on, i had to get it toed home.

After reading up i thought that the connections could be faulty so i cleaned them and i replaced the disy with one from Grand Auto.

On the first start up i let the fuel pump prime and it sounded different to usual, then I cranked over and backfired and cut out, and the same thing happened each time i go to start it up.

Could this be because the disy is installed incorrectly? - How do i go about reinstalling correctly?

Im thinking it might be the AFM or fuel pump. has this happened to anyone else?

Thanks for any help

dizy sounds to be out 180 degrees... take it out and turn it around... also, pump could be the main problem here... not the dizzy.. sou sounds like you made more trouble by removing the dizzzy....

    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
    • Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?
    • This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.
    • I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
    • STOP GOOGLING FAB9 MAKE BORG WARNER EFR KITS FOR THE NC. THEY PACKAGE AN EFR 6758. DO NOTHING ELSE. CAPS INTENTIONAL. THE BEST RESPONSIVE SETUP EXISTS FOR YOUR CAR, AND HAS BEEN PROVEN FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW. IN B4 "BUT I WANT EVEN MORE RESPONSE, IN A SIMPLER, MORE RELIABLE PACKAGE" WHICH IS A LS.
