Installed mine two weeks ago, noticed a massive difference in low down torque compared to my remap by AutoSports Engineering.

Excellant value for $150 I must say.... Will get the car dynoed soon to see how much power it is really pushing out.

  • 2 weeks later...

I'm interested in the remap, at the moment on my R32 I have:

3" turboback exhaust

Stock cat (gutting it or putting in decat pipe.. need to visit exhaust shop as bolts are stuffed)

FMIC + POD

Stock turbo @ about 12 psi

Have a fuel pump ready to throw in.

I'm not sure how much power I'm making, though its not very impressive. I hit fullboost at about 3500rpm, when does this tune? and what boost is it running?

Is the reason for the lower rev limit because the turbo's running out of puff up top?

And is there any real difference between the Rb25 and neo turbo's? All I've heard if rumours .

- Stock RB20DET tune is extremely rich

- It's tuned for 14PSI, but I'm game and running 15PSI :)

- Rev Limiter in place to prolong life of motor

- RB25DET = steel compressor wheel

- RB25DET NEO = Nylon compressor wheel

The remap did next to nothing on my RB20.. the power curve and afr curve were identical (did back to back runs on the dyno), but I did gain an extra 5hp at the top end.

Also the valet mode map switching didn't work.

On the plus side, limits were removed which was great as when I put the RB30 in it just hit R&R all time. RB30 is now running quite nicely on the remap from CEFFIE due to no R&R, so it wasn't a total loss :thumbsup:

Also because I had a cradle fitted to the spare ecu, that's $200 I save off my tune/remap next week :P

If I didn't get this remap kit, I wouldn't have been enjoying my twincam 30 for the last 2 weeks :rolleyes:

    • While it is a very nice idea to put card style AFMs into the charge pipe (post intercooler, obviously), the position of the AFM and the recirc valve relative to each other starts to become something that you really have to consider. The situation: The stock AFM is located upstream the turbo, and the recirc valve return is located between the AFM and the turbo inlet, aimed at the turbo inlet, so that it flows away from and not through the AFM. Thus, once metered air is not metered again, neither flowing forwards, or backwards, when vented out of the charge pipe. When you put the AFM between the turbo outlet and the TB, there is a volume of pressurised charge pipe upstream of the AFM and there is a volume of pressurised pipe downstream of the AFM. When the recirc valve opens and vents the charge pipe, air is going to flow from both ends of the charge pipe towards the recirc valve. If the recirc valve is in the stock location, then the section between it and the TB doesn't really matter here - you're not going to try to put the AFM in that piece of pipe. But the AFM will likely be somewhere between the intercooler and the recirc valve, So the entire charge pipe volume from that position (upstream of the AFM, back through the intercooler, to the turbo outlet) is going to flow through the AFM, get registered as combustion air, cause the ECU to fuel for it, but get dumped out of the recirc valve and you will end up with a typical BOV related rich spike. So ideally you want to put the AFM as close to the TB as possible (so, just upstream of the crossover pipe, assuming that the stock crossover is still in use, or, just before the TB if an FFP is being used) and locate the recirc valve at the turbo outlet. Recirc valve at the turbo outlet is the new normal for things like EFRs anyway. In the even of a recirc valve opening dumping all the air in the charge pipe, pretty much all of it is going to go backwards, from the TB to the recirc valve near the turbo outlet. But only a small portion of it (that between the TB and the AFM) will pass through the AFM, and it will pass through going backwards. The card style AFMs are somewhat more immune to reading flow that passes through them in reverse than older AFMs are, so you should absolutely minimise the rich pulse behaviour associated with the unavoidable outcome of having both a recirc valve and an AFM in the charge pipe.
    • Yep, in my case as soon as I started hearing weird noises I backed off the tension until it sounded normal again. Delicate balance between enough tension to avoid that cold start slip and too much damaging things.
    • I'm almost at a point where I feel like changing the alternator. Need to check the stuff you mentioned first though.
    • @Dose Pipe Sutututu I read your replies RE: R35 GTR MAFs, any ideal spots to put on? Obviously will need the adapter plate. Will be having a cross over intercooler fitted shortly, would putting it a bit before the TB be okay?
