hey guys, this is what happened, i was driving and after a boost the car made a loud bang after i changed gears, then the car wouldn't hit boost anymore as soon as it revs up it hits a limiter at 3k revs then dies.

I checked all the intercooler piping that seems all good, i thought it was the AFM because when i unplugged it then the car idled fine and doesnt stall, then when i plugged it back in the car starts then drops revs slow then stalls,

so i bought a new AFM put it in and it started going all good then after 2 minutes done the same thing and stalled,

Car is an r34 gtt.

Definitely sounds like intercooler plumbing. Have done the exact same thing a few times. Make sure every single clamp is tight as Jez said, don't just look at them and assume they are tight. If they are all good then my money is still on a vacuum leak, but seeing as it happened after boosting then I am quite sure you will find it is the clamps.

thanks for the advice ive found it now the manifold was cooled down, the elbow silicone hose off the turbo to intercooler is rubbing on the manifold and the heat must of put a hole in it then it must of burst and put a 8 cm rip in the back off it. :action-smiley-069:

    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
