Rb20 Tuning In Perth

[fourdoorlove]

Ive recently dropped my RB20 back into my 32 and she is running a little rough.. i have cleaned up and changed alot of things to help make it run smoother but its still sounding like a subaru lol, i think im just avoiding the fact that it really needs a tune

So ive looked around the forum and i cant seem to find anything direct, but i was looking for the best place in PERTH to get my RB20 tuned and for the best price with the best service

can anybody direct me? thanks guys

what do u have to tune ur 20 with?

aftermarket ecu, piggyback etc?

[reNEGaDe88]

It will sound like a subaru because its running on 5 or 4 of 6 cylinders. Check the leads, coil pack, spark plugs, injectors, injector wiring etc. these will cause ur car to miss fire permenently on a cylinder. Hence make subi noise.

Most normal mechanics can fix this

good luck.

read the consolidated workshop thread and you will find answer to your question

there is not 1 best there are lots of personal preferences for wrksops

eg one person prefes x-speed another will say hyperdrive/top racing etc

yeh as above.

best bet would be to ring around to the workshops, tell them what you need done, or what the problem might be.

and from there on, you decide what workshop.

I was told hyperdrive are doing Nistune packages atm pretty cheap. That's second hand info though so best bet would be to call up.

i see, well we have checked my ignitor, coil packs etc and found that it ran a little better with a different ignitor. i have checked the leads, they all seem to be fine, i was told to run some injector cleaner through my fuel, and use 98 octane which i have done except she's still running rough

i have a VG30 turbo going on, looking into getting some gtr injectors, 040 and dif fuel pressure reg etc, and my computer has been remapped according to a mechanic friend? i dont know how he could tell, but yeah...

so i was going to get it tuned with that, thanks for the info guys

I would figure out why it's misfiring before you bother upgrading turbo etc and trying to get it tuned. If it's not running right when you take it to be tuned you'll end up paying through the nose for the tuner to figure out what is wrong before he can even start tuning the car.

Do some experimentation and analyses by trial and error.. start the engine and unplug each coil one at a time, see if it makes any difference. Can also swap coils from good to bad cylinders to see if it's the coil or the harness. Do the same with the injectors.

Bubba speaks the truth

[reNEGaDe88]

+1 for Bubba

Turned out to be my stock fuel pump, replaced it with an 040 and she no longer spits or struggles, also added an aftermarket fuel regulator now the problem seems to be non existant

[Ehgriez]

Always good to know. Should probably look into mine as well.

Decided what engine management your going to run with?

I'm leaning towards a Nistune.

[fourdoorlove]

yeah leaning towards nistune also.. although its alot of fun to drive now with the new fuel system setup and what not.. but with a tune and the new turbo etc should be interesting to see how it goes post tune..

[Ehgriez]

Yeah for sure dude.
