Hi just wondering if anyone knows? Why does this stupid neo rb25 which i am begining to hate, boost spike to 12psi on full throttle,then it climbs to 15 psi then starts shaking the whole car (only night time late,and early mornings) i know the air is colder and more dense. And during the arvo it holds 8psi constant under full throttle. Everything is stock! hoses,boost valve everything...... :O

something is leaking or not correct for it to spike that much

the stock actuator wont allow it to hold that much pressure

i would suggest checking all the hoses and tubes

what exhaust?

That would be why.. its flowing more in the dense times...

I would suggest a upgraded actuator and then a decent boost controller to fix the issue.. try one of those cheap ones they are going on about here.. the turbo tech. you would be suprised.

3 inch exhaust, split dump pipe, and a ultra ultra high flow cat :O

well thats why its spking

youve taken away the exhaust restriction so now its easier for the engine to flow exhaust, which in turn drives the turbine faster, which makes more boost and makes it spike. i would suggest a good electronic boost controller. one that can only close based on whatever preset pressure is.

Thanx fellas! I have been tearing my hair out! I would much rather my old series one rb25! use to run 12 pound all day every day not a drama! Neo rb25 very overated! for example 9-10 psi boost cut, turbo is a crappy laggy nylon one!

What are some EBCs you recommend (one with an accurate boost in psi reading would be good)

Blitz SBD-ID3?

Profec B?

AVCR?

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
