shaun was pretty happy with it being a r33 auto.

obviously the 3k high stall and trans is robbing a bit of its power potential, but all in all im happy.

its very smooth until you here the turbo start whistling.

past that its actually a bit crazy.

Very Nice, was a touch warm today also. Nice cool day and you'll see that 300rwkw. :stupid:

Turns out I have a few questions.....

The 11 power runs? Did Shaun have a fiddle?

Did you get to the bottom of the lack of top end? Suspected torque converter?

not sure i wasnt there.

i think he did two runs one after the other so heat soak and molten tyres would show up.

299.9 then 296.8

its at a constant 24 psi which shaun thinks is a good happy number on shell 98.

the afr is now in the low 11's once boost starts, to redline in a constant line, which is something that John never managed to achieve, and knock is maxing out at 18. but averaging 12.

im not sure if im still missing 50 kws or thats all it has in it with the standard nissan head gasket?

with the 3000rpm high stall it will do a 11, so for a daily driven shopping trolley i might leave it alone for a while and just enjoy it.

cheers

Charge takes only an hour or so. :(

My sister currently has the video camera but I can grab it easily.

RE: The std Nissan gasket. I have no idea.. Its doing pretty damn well. its not o-ring'd I presume?

I've seen cometics around pretty cheap ~$200-$250.

how come you took it to shaun this time and not john?

mainly to get shaun to fine tune my pfc boost ccontroller setup as he has had some really good results with them, and John thinks there crap/doesnt know how to set them up well.

also as my first visit to Boostworx i figured i should go see what all you guys rave about..

top bloke..

    • Duh... to answer my own silly question, it's actually described in the FSM... ...400 pages away at the end of the manual, for RB25DE/DET signal descriptions, it cites the TPSwitch signal action, is dependent on the TPSensor value ~ this tends to infer the builtin POT voltage signal is the primary, and the switches are fallback/secondary should the POT fail/TPSensor signal lost (and switch alone with no TPSensor signal allows for base idle speed setting).... makes sense... they (TPS units) used to fail/wear the POT with time, they're not exactly built to last ~ having the switch as a redundancy gets around this...(or, it's less likely both signals would be lost as they're on different power rails)... and of course wrt RB26DETT, you have to electrically disconnect the IACV solenoid from the harness, to defeat idle air control...  
    • Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.
    • Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...
    • They also make them with the motor mounted on the side 
    • Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.
