any one experienced what im getting?

k now ive just recently wound my boost up to 11psi and when im pushing my car from down low, it hits 11psi

and if my rpm is below 4k its like it cuts out and comes back to life very quickly, almost like you're giving the

clutch a good ol poke, as soon as the rpm is above 4k it holds 11psi fine and doesnt miss a beat, now its already

got split fires, but im almost wondering if the fuel pump or injectors arent delivering enough fuel.

im still running factory injectors and sadly the ceffys na auto rb20e fuel pump, boss tells me fuel pump will still

deliver required fuel pressure so im unsure, im picking up an 040 soon so i guess ill find out.

the one thing that is making me reconsider that its a fuel prob is that my old factory rb20 skyline held 14psi no

probs and never let me down, i mean that felt like it had more poke than my 25

any one shed any light on my problem

cheers

yeah it is, i mean the car takes 9psi lovely, takes 10 even better but if i squeeze the throttle and make 11 too early, :D and the ghost has pushed my clutch pedal

theres no tune on the car, and my only mods are 3" tbe, front mount, manual boost cont, splitfires and a pod

mmmm indeed aye

mmmm ive heard that standard coil packs fail under higher than 10psi boost, now its not a constant prob, its only every 2-3secs under full load under 4k rpm

i forgot ive only got 5 splitfires and one standard coil

Hey man, i think im in the same boat or the one next to it. I think its my actuator. ill try changing it soon. its kinda like a mini surge aye, then hits you with full power again. I dont think itl be fuel related as it pulls hard to the redline, its just that tiny lil surge.

yeah im still runnin standard ecu but like i said, my 32 handled 14psi easy and that was all standard in terms of ecu, injectors etc, as for the surge itself, it feels like im stabbin the clutch every couple of secs till i hit anything over 4k, mysterys, gota love'm aye

^ +1 or get a PowerFC

You might have been running 14 psi in your R32, but 14 psi on an RB20 turbo is different than 14 psi on an RB25 turbo. (I realise that you are only putting it to 11psi and this is happening, just making the point that they are not equal volumes and therefore not comparable)

It has nothing to do with your injectors or any of the other stuff, its the standard ecu seeing too much air going into the engine, and retarding the timing (R&R= Rich and Retarded)

I've had this, its like it just drops into a lull, and then surges once you get over 4-4.5k.

haha ah i got ya now, yeah ill just drop it back to 10 for now, i got a gt35r going on later so ill need to upgrade comp and tune so ill wait till then to do that, cheers for the help fellas

    • Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!
    • Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.
    • Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 😃
    • You're just describing how type certification works. Personally I would be shocked to discover that catalytic converter is not in the stock mounting position. Is there a bracket on the transfer case holding the catalytic converter and front pipe together? If so, it should be in stock position. 
    • You talking about the ones in the photo above? I guess that could make sense. Fixed (but flexible) line from the point up above down to the hubcap thingo, with a rotating air seal thingo. Then fixed (but also still likely flexible) line from the "other side" of the transfer in the hub cap thingo up to the valve stem on the rim. A horrible cludge, but something that could be done. I'd bet on the Unimog version being fed through from the back, as part of the axle assembly, without the need for the vulnerable lines out to the sides. It's amazing what you can do when you have an idea that is not quite impossible. Nearly impossible, but not quite.
