After takin the ceffy to the pits today they have told me i need to "rectify loud induction noise" or the flutter on gear changes. I have an FMIC and a M's pod filter and space is extremely tight . Is there any way i can muffle the fluffer so its not so loud?

Its only on stock boost and i dont have space to build an enclosure around the pod.

Hopefully there is another way other than fittin all stock gear back on again cos for a start i dont have any of it

cheers mike

I had wicked induction noise on my cefi with standard turbo, standard boost and a HKS pod. I even put on a new pod and it was still too loud for them. basically i said it was complied like this and never came with an airbox so this level of noise must be acceptable.

Fight it :wave:

^^^ that seems right - i wouldnt diconnect the actuator rod - uncontrolled boost levels

the turbo will still spool even if the wastegate is not connected and could potentially damage your turb

ohh and rb20det ceffs never came with a factory BOV

Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldnt that let the boost rise uncontrollably? ie. unhooking actuator rod means wastegate stays closed???

That's what I first thought, but that is what would happen if you disconnected the actuator hose, ie the spring would just hold it closed. if you take the rod off, the spring is doing nothing and the wastegate flap just swings around, and would open with no effort.

yeh at first i thought woud just make uncontrolable boost, then i thought about it some more if i disconnect the rod then jammed the wastegate open sum how then the turbo wod make no boost, car woud b a bit of a pig as a boost woud b just gettin blown straight out the wastegate hole. Ony thing i am worried about is the turbo could b free spinning and could damage it??.

Jai i tried arguin that point aready but the pit guy wouldnt have it his words were "well i could pass it like that but then u woud go gunnin down the road straight past mr plod then there is a big wooshy noise u get puled over a yellowed and ur back here again"

Just un hook the actuator rod, easy fix. Just make sure you dont loose the little circlip, but if you do just use some fine wire to hold it on. If you cant take the rod off lossen to two 12mm bolts on the actuator rod bracket.

Location of bov is also pretty critical if not using the factory location.. the genius that put the R2D2 on my car put it under the front right guard, leaving a good 1.5-2m of piping before the throttlebody. At light throttling-off I get massive flutter :) can probably adjust the bov but I cbf and will deal until I get the stocker on.

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
