Hey Guys,

As most of you know there is a GB going for Z32 AFM`s pretty decent price i might add, and then i noticed someone asked the question wether you need a full stand alone ecu. The person running the GB then answered saying yes you will need a stand alon ecu.

I was under the imppression that you could use piggy back system.

So my question is will i need a Full Stand Alone ECU to run a Z32 AFM on my car?

Now im pretty sure that Tangles has a Z32 afm on his stag so if you could please help me out that would be great.

Cheers Simon

Z32 afm all wired up - running a SAFCII.

Yes, I do believe you'll need an "aftermarket ecu" such as a piggyback unit, however this *may not be the case and you may be able to use a z32afm with the standard ecu (probably hit R&R tho)..... Im sure more experienced pro's in the forced inductiuon section might be able to shed some further light on this, tho.

flysly, if you are using the standard turbo, i doubt you will run out of resolution on the standard AFM. also i noticed you have a sard FPR which also shouldn't be necessary until you upgrade the turbo and need to squeeze a little extra flow out of the standard injectors.

you can probably save a few $$'s there alone with no loss in performance.

Im using the high flow turbo, and im wanting around 220awkw,

I figure there is no point me passing up good products for good prices when im going to need them in the end anyway.

But thanks for the advice.

I did - was maxxing the afm at the 140awkw tune, although that was when I only had a catback system so that might have ahd something to do with it. changed to a z32 afm when I had the full zaust put on, fmic, fuelpump, and the sitc tuned.

I recieved my Z32 during the week, i will be hitting the dyno just for fun next sat to see what she will pull with the: Hi-Flow Turbo, FMIC, 3" Turbo back exhaust and High Flow Apexi Panel Filter, standard boost.

After that i will start bolting everything else on i have, but im finding it very bloody hard to find an SITC.

Damn that is cheap, oh well still sounds like a got it at a reasonable price.

And considering that they are near impossible to get, ive been searching ebay ever since i got my stag and have only seen one other on there for sale.

      New fix for low tyre pressure from bmw

      By The Bogan · Posted

      HUMVEE are fine in big open areas, but they are problematic on the street and tight areas As for reliability, some of the  US Army guys I have chatted with have said that when they were working they were fine, but, the do spend alot of time in workshops for multiple reasons, admittedly, they did get a hard time by the boys and girls who drove them I would definitely put them in the "buyer beware" category  They do look tough as nails though

      Just don't use ChatGPT or any other artificial stupidity for the equivalent of googling. Their demonstrated inability to discriminate reality from hallucination should be enough to make them totally untrusted. LLMs don't know anything and cannot think to even the smallest extent. They are just predictors of the next word, and that should never be confused with capability.

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I think, given the usage model described in the OP, I'd never ever experience the wonders of the 400kW upgrade. What I really need is boost from 2000rpm and probably no more than 260-270rwkW. But I suspect that the highflow is not actually the turbo for that purpose, so I may in fact need to get a G25 or 30 or something right sized and very spooly. We shall see after it is tuned. I've had to back the boost and boost ramp off to stop the thing from pinging since the highflow went on, so I've been almost living the NA life for 9 months now! Injectors are recently in hand. AFM is in hand. Dyno is fixed. Just need to clear a queue of f**king Supras out of the way (and probably fit my new gearbox). So....some time this year? Lol.

      braided lines for the turbos

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      For what I gather is a Sunday/summer car....braided is fine. You're not going to be left without a vehicle and you have plenty of time for inspection/maintenance. Oof. I wouldn't use them that way. They can probably handle the temperature** but the internal corrugations means that their flow characteristics are a bit shit. Lots of extra friction and pressure loss. Makes them flow like the next pipe size down. ** They are stainless, and the stainless can usually be at least something like 304L, which is pretty good at higher temperatures (unlike 316L, which I would use for a wrt/corrosive environment, but not a particularly hot environment). But the welding needs to be top notch. And even then, because you usually need at least one cone-seat end on them (because you can twist the hose and do up both ends at the same time unless one of them is a union) they can be prone to coming loose with heat cycles.

      braided lines for the turbos

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      I don't have the OEM oil feed lines though and the turbo-wraparound line is torn, only has water. My plan is to get replacements for these and just connect a braided line to there. And make sure it's leak free. Hoses like these are also sometimes used to connect external wastegates, so for an EGR I think you're good using them.
