Hi all,

Installing boost controller and PFC and getting a tune in the next few weeks. I've been told any 'in-car' engine management is illegal so I was wondering if any of the WA lads have had trouble with this in the past and where you may of mounted yours on your R34 to best conceal it.

I have a profec b spec 2 if this affects anything and I suspect that once tuned I wont be touching it much (low boost at 5 high at maybe 12 on stock turbo).

I suppose normal place is under the steering wheel or either side of it but this is pretty noticeable from what I've seen, maybe could get away with saying its a turbo timer =/

Cheers in advance, any pics will help greatly guys.

ta,

Steve

Turbo timers are technically illegal as well. Usually get away with them if they dont f**k with the alarm/immob. though.

For boost controller....well I've wedged in front of the ash tray, the R34s are a bit different though. If you have a pocket under your CD player, go in there (like this turbo timer):

But if you're rarely going to touch it, put it in the glovebox maybe ?

Hey man,

I have managed to pass the pits with both a turbo timer and boost controller in plain sight. Police didn't even bring it up when I was pulled over (I was stickered for a different reason)

So stealth is cool for looks, but I wouldn't stress about it

Blitz boost controller is on top of my steering column, so I can see/change boost levels (gauges are fkn homo IMO)

PFC hand controller is in the passenger glove-box.

Turbo timer is built into the alarm system.

Had no problems through the pits.

Yeh, thanks Brad that would be awesome.. although to improve the ability to read it easily I was thinking on top of the drivers side-view mirror with a bit of double-sided tape then I can wind down the window and reach out and set it as I require.

And Bubba.. you should smother paint over some bewbz and use it as an advertisement for your business, i'd definitely come play if I believed there would be paint-smeared juggaloons..

Should have come to the tournament at the Red Bull Air Race.. we had the several hundred bikini clad women heading to the photo shoot at the bell tower wander past.. needless to say everyone dropped their guns and their jaws!@

We needed them agin on the weekend and then I would have been in heaven.. paintball cars AND boobs!!

      Low oil pressure after WOT

      By Duncan · Posted

      Yeah so N1 and any other larger than factory pump are pretty famous for pumping the sump dry...obviously we don't often get to spend 20 or 30 seconds at high rpm/full noise on the road so I'd still be suspicious that is what is happening here.

      You are also getting pressure dips on gear shifts. They're just not dipping as far, but they're dipping quite below the amount of oil pressure you should be seeing, for how much RPM drops.   It quite little could be the oil pressure relief valve is starting to stick open a little/is slow to close.

      Can you log battery voltage, and TPS, and put all four of those into a single image (even as split graphs)?   The oil pressure drops aren't following RPM as such. I'm intrigued if you may have a ground loop between different sensors. With the engine not running, log your sensors and for example cycle the throttle pedal. See if any sensor values flutter or move about. This won't be a perfect test either as the ECU won't be cycling all of its actuators like it would be while running. What EMTRON do you have? Do you have a link to the wiring guide for that ECU?

      What logic functions do you feel are missing from the Haltech that others have? Is there a limit to how much logic you can string together? By limit, I mean it's like only a single level or two levels of Boolean logic. Realistically, AND, OR, and NOT, is really the only logic you need and realistically, you can also do away with another logic gate of the three above . With those three you can build the full functionality of any Boolean logic you want.

      Well that rules out the relocation theory, however with no load, you're still getting 1.5bar of oil pressure. Can you present that data in a scatter graph over longer period? Would really highly the anomalies. Wish Haltech could do that.
