Hi

Just would like some tips on a few stuff.

1) Say i have buy ethanol content sensor, would it be possible to get a tune done for a nistune so i have 98 tune, e70, e75 and e80 maps loaded on, then when i fill up, i can check the ethanol content on the reader and then plug a laptop in and load the correct map via the consult cable ? How much would this involve in dollars usually, i would assume that would be considered four seperate tunes.

2) If i purchase a wideband sensor + gauge + controller say from innovatemotorsport, would i be able to replace the wideband with my narrowband ? Would the controller be able to be plugged into the stock wiring for narrowband, and then be able to use the wideband for tuning, or do i weld in both sensors ? and would it be compatible with nistune, or do you monitor that seperately?

3) Would it be worth upgrading engine mounts when going from stock to 300rwkw+ especially that the intake manifold and turbo are both out, is the job not too hard for the side mounts ? Any diagrams or guides ? I assume you just take out top and bottom bolt(s) then jack up the engine a bit and pull it out ?

Thanks

If your going to that effort get a flex capable ecu and do a proper flex tune, so simple and less risk of any issues....

As for engine mounts, unless they are worn or

Broken then leave them as is...

There are a few options out now and so far they all seem pretty successful.... They are generally MAP.... Mines not P&P so not the best option

As for the clunky, I wouldn't know without hearing or feeling it, it's possible but more likely driveline related?

yeah, i wouldn't bother around with all that if you're running Nistune, get an ECU with a digital input.

You'll find most people run the Link G4's for this sort of thing, or the Vipec equivalent. There is a plug'n'play for the 34's.

    • See my post here If you put the Haltech in, you won't have to worry about any of that. And, in case you're worrying about my lack of credentials in doing your exact swap, I put a Neo in an R32. There has never been a stock boost solenoid near my car and the Neo's ECU has never cared. Nor should it, because it is electronically impossible for it to care.
    • That's 100% wrong. Did you wire in the boost sensor? If you did not, then that is 101% your answer. Neo ECUs do suck a bit.
    • Hello, I'm trying to make this thread basically the thread with all the answers to common questions regarding specifically the RB20 DE NEO + T engine, that comes in the R34. Answers will and only should be provided by those who have done this conversion or actually have some relevant real life experience please. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments if you have any so other members can answer. I feel like this thread is really needed, especially with more Americans buying (unknowingly going to regret it too) rb20 neo r34s. My first question being - What do you guys use for tuning? I have purchased a haltech elite 2500 Plug and play kit for the rb25det NEO because the ecu plug is the same, but I am unsure if any of the pins would need to be repined to match. Second question that I see asked very often - After this conversion, did you install the boost solenoid/ actuator? I see many people doing a + T setup on their rb20 NEOs while running stock RB25DET NEO ECUs with no tune. I am wondering how they are going about doing that and consistently abusing the car because many of these people have had these untuned setups running for a very long time. That was my original plan, but my engine cuts out at 5 psi of boost using the stock ecu with no tune and no boost solenoid/actuator.
    • interesting. ive read and heard otherwise over the past year. ive been doing this +t conversion on a rb20 neo using all oem rb25det neo parts including the ECU, and im having engine cut out issues when I hit around 5 psi of boost. Everywhere/everyone ive asked has told me its because I never wired in a boost solenoid/actuator to the ecu, so the ecu isn't getting the right signal once it hits 5 psi of boost, causing the engine to get shut off.
