hi i want to buy anything to help me get around boost cut or rich and retard.

im looking to buy anything like boost cut defenders, chipped or remaped ecu or aftermarket ecus like microtec or wolf, or even info on how to trick the factory one and no im not worried about leaning out

I have electronic boost controller and Air fuel Ratio adjustor. I still get boost cut at 16psi, i set it to 11 psi low and 14 psi high. On really cold mornings 10-15 degrees C she boosts past 16psi then ......CUT..... it is really annoying, so dont do this, if you have a manual then get proper ecu. Also adjusting AFR's can only fool stock ecu so much. I have an auto, after market ecu can't control auto box changes.

what is this adjustible air and fuel ratio and how much im only looking for 14 psi max

For Auto car get Apexi AFC NEO, this will sort your air fuel ratios, this guy on SAU sells them at a good price,

Ask him in PM to get a boost controller, that will sort your boost.

For manual car get aftermarket ecu like Apexi power fc, Greddy emanage, etc. These usually have the ability to control everything. Good luck, remember, google is your friend, shop around for prices then try support the sponsors on this site.

nah man i had exactly the same thing, everyone told me it was boost cut, even myself thought it was boost cut untill i wondered why it would pop and bang after it did it as tho there was an excess of fuel not leaning out likeboost/fuel cut, then it slowly got worse but it is like hitting a brick wall, coilpacks fixed mine aswell, i think boost cut is like 16psi or sumthn on these isnt it? you should be able to run 14psi as far as i know, just something to look into anyways, Ben

would always happen at about 5 grand under load under boost, to see wind ur boost down to like 10psi or sumthn, then do 100 in 4th on highway , theng back to third an full throttle it , if it does it its def coilpacks

hey i got hold of a modified factory r33 ecu with no boost cut and my car went smoothly to 20 psi no breakdown so thanks to everyone for there input but its not coil packs its boost cut

    • Meh, At 60 years old, I have been doing dumb stuff for much longer than you mate, I am the true King And unfortunately I cannot be a maroon, as I am not brownish red As for not getting ITB's, the plenum intake will apparently show typical gains across the board and increase induction noise a bit, but, have all over less dort than ITB's Cost difference for the extra ITB dorts was significant though, the total parts for the plenum set up is "around" $2kAUD plus shipping, the ITB's were $4kAUD plus shipping, I was contemplating really hard about paying the extra $2k for all of the dorts, but weirdly, some form of common sense, from listening to the platform experts prevailed  As for the NA mod hate by some, I've had a few boosted cars, with all their inherent issues, I'm now looking at simplicity and legalities for a street car, maybe I'm just getting old, and I'm quite happy to spend some of the kids inheritance, 5kw at a time 🤣 And think of all the money I'll be saving on consumables that something with boost needs, like engines, gearboxes, diffs, clutches,  tilt trays... etc. etc. etc. 🤪
    • Haha.  I wouldn't say I am either but I've definitely been around it plenty.  I'm guessing you know the dial in is basically to make a handicap to level the playing field between racers.  The car with the slower dial in goes first and in theory if they run their dial in time and the faster car also does then they cross the finish time if they also have exactly the same reaction time - if you go faster than the dial in them you lose, but if you are too slow there's a good chance the other person will get to the finish line first. I'm normally supporting other cars but they were all pretty dialled and were egging me on to race as well, here's one of the cars I tune (Starlet) which ran within like 1 hundredth of its dial in through the competition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inEBu-d9Gn4&t=69s
    • Where ever the fuel reg gets it reference is what I use to T into for map reference been a very long time so where it goes to plenum/runners I have no idea but never had issues. 
    • What ecu? Same shop every time? Same ambient temperature? If timing is correct then pull plugs and see if lean or rich. Dyno can also read different if they have changed ramp rate or not set tacho/speed properly  
    • I've never done dial in's just straight up, whatever that's called. I'm far from a drag (racing ) expert.
