Hey guys. Ive posted before about this before. I thought i fixed my issue where i found a slit hose. my car would cut out at low revs, complete power loss then come back. Its completely stock rb20det

Ive done all my research. Ive read many forums but nothing is helping me.

I start my car go down the drive way drive off and bam at like 1-2k rpm the car starts hesitating and i cant accelerate. Its happened after ive put a dump pipe on. All connections are fine. Everyone keeps saying different things im really confused. Can anyone lead me into the right path. What should i be looking for.

It doesnt sound like a vacuum leak or coilpacks because its not missing.

Tell me about it mate. Could be anything really. I had a look at most stuff. If there were leaks or not. All seems to be fine.

Car was perfect untill i installed the dump pipe... maybe it needs a tune?

UPDATE;
I took it for a spin today. It was driving fine. No cut outs or anything. Was boosting harder than ever. I dont wanna keep driving and the next day it plays up on me. i doubt the problem fixed it self lmao

This is happening to me i have absolutely no idea why. It seems to drive fine nothing wrong then all of a sudden it cuts out its like the key has been turned off while im trying to accelerate. if im at a complete stop and it begins to do it, it sounds cammed and wil rev high then drop down to the point of almost stalling then rev back up then do the same thing. When its doing this i cant give it any accelerator at all it just bogs down, ive replaced the CAS twice, checked TPS, AFM Cleaned, checked coilpacks. I have no idea what this could be :(

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
