Ross from works auto put one of those hurricane filters on for me yesterday, they are supposed to be a huge improvement over the HKS pod filter. Driving home tonight I'd put my foot down with 12psi of boost and it'd cut out as soon as it hit 12psi, so I dropped it back down to 9psi and it was misfiring bigtime at the top end and didnt feel like it was pulling past 5000rpm... any idea's? think I'll go back to the HKS pod and get a refund.

Ken - did Jeff say anything to you about the car and what i said?? I hope I didn't get you in  trouble

Nah , Jeff wasn't there and as I said , it's not a problem.

Only saw the car you were looking at outside in the dark and rain.

Didn't look too bad but can look at it closer once you decide if it's the one you want.

Cheers

Ken

Lack of restriction causing overboost and lean mixtures.

Seems strange cos I didn't think there would be that much diff between pod filters.

    • Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?
    • I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".
    • No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.
    • Does anyone know if this is off centered? Looks like it, when I indicate to go right, but turn my steering wheel slightly left it cancels (was always like that even before I started messing around with it) was wondering if anyone else has the same issue?
    • Nothing photo worthy since last update, lots of little plumbing bits for the AAC/Cold start valves, and unfortunately I still need another couple of parts for the brake booster line and the AAC into the plenum. Otherwise it all looks good to start up engine wise, onto checking the electrics/interior
