Hey gys, i just put in some new splitfire coils.....and the car is still missing really bad, mainly in second gear and when i give it WOT, foot down.....i had them gapped at .8mm, and the car is only running .7bar boost....thats like 10psi isnt it?

Ive got the following mods

3" exhast to split dump

hybrid fmic

apexi pod

splitfire coils with ngk bcpr6es (gapped at .8mm)

What else could i try to do?

i havent reset my factory ecu for awhile, dnt knw if that will help.....

Im really annoyed that my coils werent the ones at fault($550 later)

had same issues, if it's your stock computer it actually dumps so much timming in it couses it to missfire. I got a retuned ecy removing teh R&R and problem solved. DO a search for WogsRus and Splitfires shoudl come up.

hey mate, sounds like the same problem i had a few months back..car was missing real bad, i took it down to r.e. customs and they fixed it straight away. the problem was two things, dodgy ignitor and fuel pump.

hope that helps!

Good Luck mate

AFM - Spray it with contact cleaner. Easy as.

As for spending $550 on splitfires, didnt you test your original coil packs first?

Before going out and spending money?

Could be anything thats causing a missfire.

Plugs

Coils

Ignitor

ECU

AFM

Connectors corroded to each sensor

CAS

There is a long list of things to have checked that will tell you whats causing the problem

had same issues, if it's your stock computer it actually dumps so much timming in it couses it to missfire.

Its called Rich and Retard for a reason

The ecu pulls so much timing out to prevent detonation, not increase it lol :domokun:

    • Give it 40psi and send it to the moon
    • I suspect 550s are on the large side for happy operation with a stock/Nistune RB20 ECU. The Hitachi ECU doesn't love short pulse width operation, and the RB20 doesn't need much fuel at idle. Big injectors can be unpleasant. This could be contributing.
    • Yeah, I still don't know why the idle speed control can't catch the falling RPMs. In the Consult logs I see the AAC duty cycle rising, but suddenly it goes lean and the engine stalls. Anyways, the relevance here is the DW 550cc injectors are probably the same. So if OP has similar issues I would be tempted to finger those injectors as problematic for whatever reason vs the ECU failing for some reason.
    • Yeah, sort of blurring two different things together, aren't we? I just meant O2 feedback closed loop. I used to have a 0-1V LCD meter on my dash, wired directly to the O2 sensor signal. So you could easily see what it was doing. Normal running it would flick back and forth nicely. Slow down to an idle and it would keep flicking, as the ECU tried to servo to maintain stoich, but it would slow down as each swing happened until it would stay at one end of the scale. As I said above, the sensor heater is not enough to keep it hot enough when there is also little heat in the exhaust flow. Give it a blip and it would start swinging again, then peter out again. Meanwhile, idle speed control would run just fine, because unrelated.
    • It's not even O2 feedback, it's just simply when the ECU sees the closed TPS signal for whatever reason the idle will start steadily dropping until the engine dies. With the TPS adjusted to not trigger closed TPS it will idle at some ridiculously high RPM and something like 6 degrees of timing. In the absence of getting eyes on it personally and a lot of quality time doing diagnostics I couldn't tell you what the real problem was but it was interesting nonetheless
