Took my car to the dyno today. It did pretty well it made 327whp on a dyno dynamics at 14lbs. Had some problem with boost creep.

Drove the car home and about 1/2 way here it starting missing/cutting out when it started to hit about 10psi or so. It just all of a sudden started doing this.

Now when we had it on the dyno it did this and we regaped the plugs to 32. It did great after this! The plugs are NGK 6es's. I just wanted to know if it could be the plugs. I’m going to be taking it back to the dyno again tomorrow.

My set up:

RB25DET

JUN Intake manifold

90mm throttle body

550cc Low impendence top fed injectors

Garrett GT3582R

Tial 44mm V band waste gate

Apexi SAFC II

Apexi ITC

Walbro 255hp fuel pump

Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator

3" ss turbo back exhaust

FMIC

Z32 MAF

Any relative information would be helpful!!

get on the car as in "more boost"?

more boost = more air flow etc etc..

try budget option of taping up the coil packs.

search for "Tape+up+coil+packs"

it costs you 30 minutes and the cost of a few rolls of good electrical tape.

should give you some time to buy splitfires or something.

also, when you say you gapped the plugs down to "32" what measurement is that?

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By R3N3 · Posted

      Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..

      Does 98ron contain ethanol?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.

      Will I Need A Retune After Cahanging My Catalytic Converter ?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.

      Ah yep. I asked a auto electrician about getting a cheap rebuilt alternator vs a new one. He also said he used to it back in the day but it ended up costing similar to what a new one would and recommended getting a new one,.
