well i got her back, they managed to pull out 215 rwkw, thats as far as it can go without injectors and pump, and now on hi boost the engine cuts out for a second, then goes again, and the knock sensor goes up to as high as 94!!! bbbbaaaaaddddd! so low boost it is till it goes back in on tues for pump and injectors...money money money

94 knock level f@#k thats not good, was ya engine warning light cuming on???

were u resetting it after every boost up?? coz i think the numbers just keep adding up if u dont reset i think u press up to highlight it then press right 2 reset it then press down 2 un highlight it

i did say 204rwkw 10psi with everything stock... simon is making over 280rwkw with stock inj... just upgrade the pump, and your cutting out thing may be as i explained before the spark gap, as fuel cut should have come off with the power fc install? or even a coil pack breaking down?

good going with the 215 what boost was that? and when u made the 206 was that with the fc in untuned or stock ecu, i would have thought they could have made more then 10kw with a tune..

i took it back to simon at morpowa to show him what its doing, but the bitch didnt do it!!!! and boy did he give it a hard time!

205 kw was before the fc on 11 psi...215 was at 13 pound,with pfc, they said it was as safe boost level as they could get it with the standard pump.

and they also told me the injectors are at only 80%, so they have a little more puff to go before they need replacing.

im only after a few more kw, around 230-240 and ill be happy.

so it goes in monday for bosch 044 i think he said.

spark gap was set before the tune yesterday, and splitfire coil packs will be in a couple weeks time,

94 knock level f@#k thats not good, was ya engine warning light cuming on???

yeah the engine light was coming on, just that once when knock went over 60.

and i reset it after every hard boost, yes

  • 4 weeks later...

just to quickly add to what was said b4... there is absoloutly NO limit (that we have found yet) to what we can re map the standard ecu to and with, AFM's, injector sizes and turbo's!!! as shys6 said b4 we made 360 sumthing rwkw's out of our rb20!!!!

n i would suggest a walbro 500hp pump in ur tank man, they are pretty much a straight fit, no mucking around! sumtimes it gets a bit tight putting a big bosh down in the tank of the r33's n s14's coz it has to squeeze down next to the fuel level sender and all.. but obviously the bosh will still work!!!

hope yu get it all done soon man, will be good :happy:

dude go for the walbro > bosch.

im looking into it myself....apparently the bosch in-tank fuel pump doesnt come with 'everything.' or you could bust 400 or so bucks for a nismo fuel pump haha

walbro would come with everything the bosch one would. With the bosch u need to modify the holding bracket and use a hose clamp to put it in place.

I would go bosch over walbro, but thats personal choice.

i am looking at getting a bosch 040....ryan is helping me put that in....Walbro $170 and Bosch 040 $220....i would rather go with the Bosch 040....just a lot better

Arent Bosch just better for much higher kw applications? and Walbro are fine for about 250rwkw?

Bosch 040 i can get one for $220.....and its not hard to install it or so i have been told....so why get a nismo one....for around $400.....and why get a walbro pump for $170 when for $50 more u can have a much better and reliable pump in ur pride and joy...

    • Looks like they've been through a few versions of the kit; that is not the one I had trouble with (it had the level sender attached to baffles on the floor, the one you linked the level sender is hung from the hat). One obvious point about that kit is it has no baffles at all, not even the factory setup (although it looks like you can retain the factory setup if you want).  Not sure if that will be an issue or not, the good news is it looks like you can get the pump nice and low in the tank, but that doesn't help if the fuel is all sloshing to one side of a wide flat tank
    • One more question if you don't mind. Is the first kit you tried the same one as they currently sell as their fuel-pump-hanger kit? https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/collections/fuel-system-kits/products/fpg-bnr32-fuel-pump-hanger-kit-single-fits-stagea-c34-nissan-skyline-gt-r-r32-fpg-087?variant=42131478315186 Because according to their video the low fuel warning thing can be taken from the OEM hanger and attached to their new hanger. Just wondering whether this is the kit you weren't happy with, or whether it's a different revision. Thanks again!
    • That's the thing....the basics of fuel and ignition are deceptively simple.....getting it to behave like factory in all conditions after airflow mods is way more complex. Newer cars like the V37 are all about modifying the standard ECU which is about a billion times more complex than they were 20 years ago, with a bunch of parameters affecting others
    • The larger TB I had on the SS was a pain to get to idle right, but, that was cable In the end they just raised the idle up a couple of hundred RPM so it was happy idling away either in gear or in park (slush box life) I'm curious on how my NC will idle with the new intake, larger TB, and cams that are currently going in/on, but I have faith that MX5 Mania will sort this "electronical" "black magic" out the best they can in the tune with a electronic TB Sometimes I wish I knew more about the intricacies of tuning, but most of the time I don't because I know it would hurt my brain 🤣
    • That's the thing. Cam is smaller than before.. though the old cam was +6 degrees advanced. We're talking huge changes here, the narrowbands want to trim out 20% of fuel and pull the (wideband) idle to like 16.0 AFR or such. One side is a little more trimmy than the other. Think along the lines of ~20% to ~15-18%. Unfortunately my scouring of the internet hasn't really found anyone with this issue. People either just disable NB's or have them wildly different, where one is -20% and the other is +20 or 0 (i.e a sensor is just dead/wiring is just busted). Turning them off and relying on the base map only results in the wideband reporting at about 14.0 with the Varex closed. It'd be a little leaner (closer to 14.7ish) with the Varex open. I know I can just change the switch points so that the narrowbands agree with the wideband, but it's still odd. Both of them are reading voltage, it's just that they're reading quite high mv, in the ~800 region. It's just odd. This was with the IAT fudged to report it was about ~22 degrees which is my guesstimation of the temperature in the room. I have an OEM sensor ready to try tonight, which is slow and crap - but .. worked last time I used it. Sadly I am aware that idle tuning with the big TB is going to be a PITA and I look 'forward' to many hours spent stalling or stumbling idle or delving into drivability things.
