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:

      I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real

      Actually I might have figured out. Looks like there is a tab according to google images but it's hidden. Silly me.

      No clips on this one like the other connector. Only that red tab that I can push slightly up.

      For any loom connector that has an obvious release that resists pushing far enough to unclip, just spray some silicone lube into it. You might also benefit from using a bent screwdriver or small pick to push in the right place at the right angle.

      R34 GT Indicator not Cancelling

      Hey all, I went to try and fix my indicator not canceling, but I couldn't remove the clockspring cable under the column so I could twist that green thin. Anyone know how to remove this cable? I see this red tab but didn't have any luck. I was thinking of unscrewing it but wasn't sure if it would cause issues. I did notice for my indicator stalk, 2 out of 3 cables were plugged in but the last cable wouldn't fit in the stalk. I'm getting it's for fog lights. It was like this when I originally pulled it off.
