hi i have a 94 nissan skyline r33 gtst auto, my mods are turboback exhaust, greddy fmic, turbosmart dual stage boost controller, and greddy e manage. Before i had the computer in, the boost was cutting out, so to prevent this happenign i installed the e manage got it tuned at dynoed it at 195kw at 14psi. yet the boost is still cutting out? why is this happening?

this is the stock ecu protecting the engine and turbo. the emanage is only a piggyback system, so it doesn't override the stock ecu 100%. there is a function in the emanage ultimate to help with this, but i'm not sure if it is in the emanage blue.

don't worry about it man..

it will stop cutting out soon with that sort of boost level.

it will stop cutting out for good.

so does it mean that he'll pop his motor on 14psi AFTER its been tuned cos boost is cutting out?

at that boost level, the turbo is on the "any day now" side of death.

motor should be fine if the fuel and timing is fine.

People always love pushing the envelope which is fine if they have a spare envelope lying around.

las nyt i drove my car, n i relised that when i floord it, the boost was fine it was goin at 14 no trbbl, however i was lookin at my revs and it was struggling at 4-5rpm, so i put da power button down, and everythign was fine, however at 5.5g it was having trbble gettin past that, so im thinking it looks lyk a possible rev cut, it doesnt happen all the time, jus sumtyms, lyk 1 day ill put it down all da way and everythign is sweet, and den later ill do the same thing and itll struggle at different RPM Points, btw i dnt always drive at 14psi, only if i drag or sumthing, other than that my boost doesnt go much over 8-9psi.

the turbo may pop, it may not. i was running 14psi for ages with no troubles. even in summer. the engine will be fine unless bits of the turbo get in there.

explain which part of the turbo is gonna get in the engine? ive never understood this.

exh turbine would destroy dump/front or cat..... i assume.

compressor? would bits travel to the intake?

bits of the compressor wheel can break off and get into the engine.

justin911 had the butterfly in his throttlebody get wedged open by a bit of his compressor wheel.

oooooooooooh >_<

i see. didnt imagine it would get thru the cooler, and all those bends to the plenum.

      With my pre/power I use a remote trigger cable(3.5mm jack each end). I turn tv on, it turns both on via ARC. Or, just the pre with the remote or its streaming software, turns on both. Not that difficult at all. Obviously,  you would also want to actually update/upgrade over other factors in your life(bills, family, other hobbies, etc)

      Yeah, nightfall was very "meh". And I'm crap at pvp, so feels like everyone has cheats(it's just my lack of skill). Final shape has been pretty good. New raid and dungeon are pretty good. If you want to give it a go, probably wait until it's on sale. But, as usual, most of it feels very familiar.

      This morning was Kingswood's Microscopic Wars. It is the album's 10 year anniversary this year and we went to see them play the whole album as a special show a couple of months back. Was pretty spectacular.

      Thinking of getting a Q50 300hp and just tuning it instead of getting the Q50 Red or 400R

      Yeah I would like to try and get a ADM car to reduce issues with insurance. I've decided if I end up getting this car I will set it up to be a sleeper build, leave it looking stock/dad spec on the outside I wonder if you can just drop in the 400r/Red/Z ECU or better still use a flashing tool to copy the map off one. Backup the factory map and then flash the 400hp cars onto the 300hp cars ECU?

      Nah, yeah, nah. Speakers have a nominal impedance of 8 ohm that looks more like 6.4 ohm when measured. The receiver's amplifiers (all channels) are all rated to 6 ohm (I think, it's been a long time since I cared). The real problem is that many modern class D amps have aggressive protection circuitry that cuts off the fun if they think too much current is being drawn. And with my speakers having series crossovers, as opposed to more typical parallel crossovers, and big TL enclosures, they can certainly dip down to lower impedances at some frequencies and that easily triggers the protection. Pioneer receivers are somewhat famous for it, but even Denon, Onkyo, et al, all have many complaints against them across various models. It only does it when listening to music at high levels. You have to be putting your ears at risk to do it. But sometimes I want to do that. If I was serious about using it as a listening room I'd simply upgrade the amp for the front pair to a nice Rotel or something, and just use the receiver for signal handling and processing - although that would be a bit of a pain in the arse too. Have to switch on more shit, pre-amp volume vs main amp volume, etc etc.
