Hi all,

This is a cold start issue and has some aspects which are similar to this thread "http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=158452" however i also get crazy boost issues. I never rev the car above 2.5k when cold and never boost, however i get this strange behavior (think I’ll video it) of the boost gauge fluttering and coming up to boost very quickly then letting off. The consequence of this is very rough driving and a ridiculous amount of blowing. I also get that feeling of slight hesitation but not so worried about that. Once the car has it temp these symptoms disappear. The bit that confuses me is how easily the boost climbs, like 2 x as quick, then starts fluttering, on,off,on,off but not consistently but very erratically and aggressively. This makes for lousy driving, shuddering and so forth. Its very hard for me to explain, i think I will have to youtube it but any advice or ideas would be much appreciated.

Mods that may be relavent:

hks gtss turbo's

hks dump pipes

standard bov's

Cheers.

    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
    • This makes sense. I have 2 so I'll just choose the least favourable child to perform the task.  If all turns to shit, I've still got a spare.  Win-win!
