Just Cleaned Afm

[browneye91]

hey guys just cleaned my afm on the 33 and took it for a drive. was alot smoother but noticed that my boost had dropped from .84 down to .60. anyone know why that happened?

i adjusted my boost controller so that it boosted to .84 again and it was much smoother again no big miss where it would normally happen.

any insight would be awsome

what sort of boost controller ?

did you reset the ecu self learn ?

its a blitz dual sbc and i didnt reset anything the controller still said had the same set level as boost as before i cleaned the afm but when i adjusted it i had to double the number to get the same boost as before.

im still using the standard smic would that have something to do with it? im outting in my front mount on tuesday

Well it must not be a problem coz I reset the ecu an went for a spirited drive the boost is stronger but seems to be more undercontrol as the boost used to bounce under full throtle before cleaning the afm and it doesn't spike so I'm happy will see how things go on Tuesday when I get the cooler in

Hey guys, im noticing that my boost is fluctuating a little bit too (just installed a manual boost controller) and was just wondering how you reset the ecu... might give it a go to see if it will calm things down. Thanks!

I know with holdens and that to reset a start ecu is to disconnect the battery for a few hours

[browneye91]

Yeah my boost had nothing to do with the ecu when it fluctuated it was because it was missing but it stopped after cleaning the afm but now I got my intercooler in it misses shit loads and has hardly any power under load so now it looks like new coil packs for me the joys of cars=)

Ohh and I have a high idle sits at like 920 when it used to sit around 800
