Well if you want it to build boost, which is the whole point, a fuel cut limiter isnt going to work.

how much power can a 4efte gearbox handle
RobSR replied to Vicep82's topic in Drivetrain & Transmission
It depends how much mechanical sympathy you have too. At the end of the day its more torque that breaks gearboxes not power. -
As mentioned you need to run it in and use the correct oil. I fitted my mates, he ran it in properly and used the oil i said, and its silent. They only clunk like a bastard if using the wrong oil, or not run in correctly. The oil you want is Fuchs Titan Race available through opie.

Ah cool, not a lousy spec then. Any headwork atal?

^ That is why WEPR is the one! -
What have you already done tho? Inlet mani/tb is one of the last thing that needs to be changed on a starlet. Have you done everything else thats going to give you better gains first?
-
From what ive seen/heard the omex ones seem alright, if you want to do it properly tho it should be done through an aftermarket ecu.
-
Some are, some arent. Depends how they control the spark. Bee*R ones arent great for example.
-
^ Whats your current spec?
-
I agree with AdamB and wouldn't bother going for a PFC. Open loop knock control too...yea great one. Even a standard ecu's knock control is closed loop.
-
That the tunnels near baldock bud?
-
Use plastigauge. Have a google/look on youtube.
-
Because it starts leaning things out. Only fit it if you have the correct supporting mods to run above fuel cut. If you run 1bar on a standard manifold, youll start melting things.
-
Lots of things that make a difference to what you need. But if you do get something big injector dynamics is the way to go. Again a emb wont be able to control them, emb's struggle with 550's tbh.
-
Nice stuff mate. Doubt you'll need 1000cc's spray pattern will be turd and a emb won't be able to handle those for shit!
-
Like phil said the boost controller won't really do a lot. The actuator won't really. To set it so it doesn't boost a lot, the arm would have to be so far wound out the waste gate would probably already be open making it laggy as hell. Restrict the inlet or exhaust. Thats your only option.
-
Try and get a photo up of the turbo. but if they are the only mods turn the fuel pressure back to standard at 2.4bar. I also wouldn't fit the fcd yet either.
-
So you decided to stand on it? Wtf? lol
-
Hardly anyone used to use them on forged builds either as it was only really thought necessary if going above standard rev limit with big cams. My brothers old forgie had one, god knows who has that engine now tho
-
ridiculously low oil pressure after rebuild
RobSR replied to Ryan_EP82 GT's topic in 4E-FTE Engine Discussions
Potentially rings or did you re-shim the head? -
First of all take the FCD off lol. Jam Ecu will fuel a tdo4 to around 1bar. Buy an AFR gauge so you can check on things tho. Put the fuel pressure back to standard at 2.4bar as that's what the jams are setup for.
-
Whether they are standard size shells or not, you can't just drop new ones in there without checking the clearances IMO. I'd put that on being the problem. The other ones that haven't done it.. You've either got lucky or it would be a ticking time bomb
