I know ther is a million posts about this but every singel post i read havent helped me yet.

I have the "standard" isue about the car strugeling/cuting at 4500rpm, after a wile it wil boost/fule cut if i keep holding the throtle, if i let go a bit i migth get it past 4500, but usaly dont. Turbo gets glowing hot, but car is running rich, dont have a afr but car spits flames.

Mods:

- 3" exhaust

- Pod filter

I have tried: 

- Changing plugs and gaping them

- new coils (yellow jacket)

- tried 2 difrent AFM's and mesured them

- cheked fule presure,, 36psi with vacume, 41psi wirout

- tryed to take out cat

- tryed to discobekt boost selinoid

- timing is 15° at 650-700rpm

Yellow jacket coils are prone to failure, OEM or blue Splitfire are best...…..set your gap to 0.8.  But without a programmable ECU or SAFC etc it will go R+R.

What is wrong with the Yellow jacket? If they are so bad why are they stil sold? Shoud work fine on a stock car as far as i know

They are sold to unsuspecting people.

Seen any high powered RBs with them? Nope.

I ran then before, brand new set. 2 died, then a 3rd. Had 2x coils replaced then gave up. Money better spent on strippers and cocaine. Mind you it was breaking up at 1 bar boost, pathetic. Bought brand new Splitfires and put 1.7bar through it no worries.

A poor man pays twice.

Also try stock boost.

I run Yellowjackets, no issues (1.1mm spark plug gap). Although my engine is standard everything.

Once you start leaning on them, you'll run into problems. There's a reason they're cheap, and a replacement for standard engine/turbo/boost level (it gets you going at the very least).

If you're planning on more power, do what the others above said.

you guys need to read what im writing, car is STOCK exept for Exhaust, filter and coils, rest is completly stock, stock boost, stock fule, stock pistons, i baugth yellow jacket becasue it seamed like an OK change from originals on a STOCK car that is not gonne be tuned

Also if you have a thing against Asians, maybe go through your belongings and throw everything out that's made in China, Taiwan, Vietnam, Thailand, Philippines, Japan into the bin - that includes your car too.

Looked at your profile, I think you meant Nissans not Nissan's. Plural vs. Possessive.

I used to run yellow jackets on my stock engine and after less than 5000kms one of them died. Never again.

I'm surprised mine are still going even after track days. But they'll probably start failing after I post this.

In saying that, I drove my car once last year so it's not like it's used a lot.

    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
