Ok guys for the latest rundown on a dyno. I could feel holes in the power curve through seat of the pants driving in this showed up badly on the dyno. Between 5000-6000rpm the power curve dips and ive had this dip all along with every dyno run its been on with either the stock turbo or the 2530. So it means time for a power fc. It is not fuel, we tuned fuel around the mid 11's to 11.7. Peak power was 224rwkw. We could get boost to 17.8psi in the midrange and this dropped off too 10's with the boost controller. So i disconnected the boost controller and ran it straight to the actuator and then boost dropped off too 12.5psi at max revs. Mid range is still impressive recording 150rwkw at 3900rpm.

So in a nut shell, the SAFC has done its best, there are too many hiccups at the moment and until we can get in there and play with the timing, this is as far as it goes.

We tried even a little bit more boost but then we reached some sort of cut-off which must be boost cut or something.

So what exacly was the cutoff? its not the safc2 not being able to controll the z32 obviously?

What would have been different if you could of controlled timing?

My engine is cutting out over 18psi for a split second in the midrange at max boost so it must be the standard Ecu shutting it down of boost cut. Anything under 18psi and its fine, not cut and no misses.

Standard ECU must be pulling out a heap of timing during the power runs. We need to get in there at giving RPMs and put it back in.

ahh ok so its just over 18psi, well thats understandable :cheers:

so besides that;

the safc2 with dyno tuning can run the z32 afm on standard computer perfectly?

    • I recently got their dbw 74mm throttle body and pedal kit. It is sensational quality especially the wiring harnesses. Unfortunately I can’t answer u about the fitment to stock inlet manifold as I’m going Rahjab Racing forward plenum. Only one thing to be careful of is understand u have to pay gst and import fees if your purchase is over $1,000 in one shipment.
    • yeah i agree paint match stops it from standing out so much, oh that's actually really good to know i was wondering if it would help with air flow now actually having an outlet in the bonnet. Will have to focus on ducting into and out of the radiator now to make the most of it.
    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.
