It really does not need it's own section.

Look how dead the RB30 section is by way of example. Given the amount of options/configuration and issues when setting up an entire motor... Just a fuel, no point splitting off.

it's not really a matter of how dead the thread is or will be....the RB30 section has alot of usefull information and in a small location that makes it easy to find.

If an E85 section can't be justified by itself, why not an alternative input section covering e85, racing fuels, NOS, water/methanol injection etc

I like it becasue it makes Fuels a specific area

I dont know what other peoples thoughs are but on the GTR.CO.UK forum they have even made "Turbos" a sub forum so information can be found easier.

Not saying its wrong but "Forced Induction" itself is a very broad subject in my opinion

I have been searching for the complete E85 thread only found it becuase I saw this thread otherwise the search function doesnt show the thread up. So i reckon it a good idea to have it sub division only for finding the info better thereby you wont waste serve space with threads that could have been answered in one section.

I found it first shot?

Simply went into Forced Induction. Top right corner, using the search "E85 Complete"

It's the first result when using last post, obviously because you've posted in it.

Or

If you use the other filters for example "title" instead of "last post time"... It's the 8th result, and would be the 8th result regardless of when the last post was in it. It shows up no problem without the need for advanced search!

Hate to say it but the search is working fine, you are just not looking at it correctly.

    • Duh... to answer my own silly question, it's actually described in the FSM... ...400 pages away at the end of the manual, for RB25DE/DET signal descriptions, it cites the TPSwitch signal action, is dependent on the TPSensor value ~ this tends to infer the builtin POT voltage signal is the primary, and the switches are fallback/secondary should the POT fail/TPSensor signal lost (and switch alone with no TPSensor signal allows for base idle speed setting).... makes sense... they (TPS units) used to fail/wear the POT with time, they're not exactly built to last ~ having the switch as a redundancy gets around this...(or, it's less likely both signals would be lost as they're on different power rails)... and of course wrt RB26DETT, you have to electrically disconnect the IACV solenoid from the harness, to defeat idle air control...  
    • Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.
    • Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...
    • They also make them with the motor mounted on the side 
    • Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.
