  1. Okay, is the fuel pump just a plug and play? Or do I have to map that in? Nah, replaced everything with standard internals (didn't have the funds to go forged)

    Oh I see, removed for the power run?

    What's an ebc? Boost controller? Any recommendations?

    I went down the route of a 'bleed valve' but had very little luck with controlling the boost. It ended up boosting at 25psi for a second or so, and ended up running rough ever since.

    I'll try and put everything up that I can think of.. (I took the car off the road in 2014 - delayed rebuild because of lack of experience.

    Engine wise

    4efte

    Standard internals

    Lightened flywheel

    Stage 2 exedy clutch

    Civic radiator

    SARD rrfpr

    Fuel cut defender

    WEPR ram horn manifold, external waste gate w/ screamer pipe

    TD04 (hybrid I think)

  2. Thanks for all the replies, I have a AFR guage, oil pressure guage and boost guage that I will wire in before its finished,

    I'm currently driving an EP3 type r as a daily, but will more than likely end up driving the starlet full time when it's done (so won't be driving it like I've stolen it, atleast not all the time)

    Everything fuel wise -injectors and fuel pump etc is all still standard.

    So tbh I can run the setup I am currently for the running in period (with an AFR guage etc) then when it comes to afterwards, it'd be best to get an ecu for a proper map? Where are the best places to get a map? (Not too worried about distance as I originally thought I'd have to trailer it there)

    I'm not too worried about removing the speed limiter, for daily use I'll never go near 112mph so that's not a problem.

  3. Hi all,



    right this post is more than likey in the wrong place (sorry)


    lets start from the top, I'm completely new to all this and don't really know what I'm doing (lol)


    I'm running a TD04 on stock internals - using a SARD fuel pressure regulator and fuel cut defender. (backyard modification i know)


    I've completely rebuilt the 4EFTE from the ground up and want to run it as safe as possible (having spent more than i wanted to and replaced literally everything!)



    i'm nearing the end of the rebuild, and wanting to run a safer option than i am currently.. Ie. an ECU of some sort.


    ive noticed alot of you guys either run the Emanage blue or ultimate.


    I'm edging towards to Blue to keep the final costs down, but my problems are - i want to be as safe as possible while running it in - so i want to get an ECU.. do they come with a base map that i can just 'potter' around in to make up 500 miles or so, or do i have to get a full map on 'said' ECU?



    I.E. can i run on the current set up for the 500 miles then buy an ECU and get a map or is it best to get the ECU straight away and go down that route?



    I've read that its best to find a mapper, then buy the ECU that the mapper is familiar with and go down that route.



    i'm literally stuck with everything, so any help that any of you can give will be a great help.



    where are the best places to get a map on any ECU that is as close as possible to Somerset (Southwest)

  4. Hi all, this is for advice as well as 'wanted'



    I'm after some gauges but have no idea on whats good/accurate and what is and isnt a good price to pay.


    Im after Boost, Oil pressure and Air/Fuel ratio (possibly oil temp)


    if anyone has any for sale?


    Cash waiting..



    Thanks


  5. Evening all,


    Im midway through an engine rebuild and ive discovered my cams are chipped and pitted so im after some new ones.



    What are my options and what are the price ranges?



    Thanks
