How to avoid Fuel cut?

[Pav]

hi guys,

I have a 95 GT with a hks filter, hks exhaust, bailey BOV, and a de-cat and i am getting a fuel cut off when i'm at full boost, but it only happens sometimes?? i'm gonna get a front mount in the next couple of weeks and a HKS actuator and i think a re-map with a piggy bank ECU on the RR should sort the problem??

cheers

That will sort the problem out mate, but wont be ideal for these reasons.

1. because you are getting minor boost creep, meaning a perfect map cant easily be attained and,

2. If you add any other significant mods i.e manifold or hybrid you will probably require a remap to get the most out of it. The boost creep will always be an issue though with a filter and decat.

Hmm, I swear toby from toytuning wrote a good "article" on boost creep, helped me understand all this stuff long ago! It may only be on TGTT but I'll see if it can be taken over to the wiki section, then when anyone asks about it, point them in the right direction.

I'm might write an options thread for the different types of ecu available, which are good and for what reasons, so that people can make a decision on which to choose. What do you reckon?

Go for it bud, go nicely with the one about hacking the toyota one and what not and all the others out there and the safety they have on them

Thats right, from what I've read only Apex-i have been able to "hack" the toyota one but I think they were very involved with toyota at the time when they created the power fc.
