Hey Blukie - did you figure this out.  I have standard ECU but getting a cut about the same boost level...

Benl,

this behaviour is normal for the standard computer. The standard computer knows that once 10 PSI is achieved to "cut" the ignition to save the turbo from failure. Because I now have a PFC, mt understanding is that you cut "override" this feature, I just don't know how. Otherwise you can buy what is know as a "fuel cut defender".,

get it re-tune... my tuner set a boost cut on my computer just to save the life of my turbo.. my car is set to 10psi-- at my current setup..that's all i need,..he will tune it up again once i get my new turbo and other stuff.

so yeah..just tell your tuner to allow higher boost.

Hi, just got myself a PFC and my car seems to still cut out when boost exceeds 10 PSI. I thought this "Fuel cutout" was non existent with Power FC's. Is there a particular map I must go to and "correct" this ???????

What car is this?

Power FC's have no excessive airflow protection.

They have no rich and retard programming like the standard ecu.

Get it tuned:cheers:

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      The cam I am actually putting in (a few posts up) is actually smaller than my current one. At least duration/overlap wise. All the chop stuff I hear just sounds like an engine running badly, because it is. I then envision driving it around in 1st gear and being massively sad about it bucking to the beat of said chop. There is an idle video of someone with a similar cam floating around the internet, but mine is a custom cam (so is his) so it'll never be the same, plus the fact exhausts are entirely different. What I want to do is put some bullet mufflers/race mufflers in to replace a couple sections straight pipes that currently replace the two extra cats that I don't need. But this is even further down the line!

      I can tell you now, when the bracket that the little hydraulic ram attaches to snaps, with a subframe, and V8 from an AMG C63 on it, it sounds like someone letting shotgun off right beside you. It leaves your ears ringing, and a huge thankfulness that you never ever put a body part under something heavy that's only supported by a hydraulic lift...

      Water leaking into the rear trunk

      By Neostead2000 · Posted

      Still not a guarantee fix. I used a high quality butyl-mastiq (the black goo that's not really silicone nor polyurethane, same stuff they use from the factory that just spreads out like melty cheese), and I still get lots of water on both sides of the trunk when raining or washing the car. I also suspect the factory spoiler rubber gasket might not be sealing well, so I'm thinking of adding a thin layer of grey silicone around the bolt holes on both sides and see if that's where it also leaks from. The biggest issue is that these cars don't come with a drain hole on each side like other coupes and hatchbacks.
