Carl. Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 Afternoon lads, bit of advice please Just bought Socks ported standard mani (Cheers Matt)Would like advice from anyone in the know. can i run 1 bar through it? is it 100% safe????and will it give me the same performance as a tubular mani like Japspeed, SV & autobahn etc (without the instant cracking lol) Im currently running an SV manifold @ 1 bar (but its blowing from somewhere)Jam ecurx7 intercoolergutted cathks silent power exhaust system Quote
Socks Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 take a look at this thread Carl.http://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index....showtopic=31075i asked about this when i was getting the work done to it!at first those important nubbies in runners 2 and 3 were still there, but then i got them remoed too, making it safe to run at 1bar Quote

Socks Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 mended link!yeh... if u compare it to a stock one mate u can clearly see why the stock one isnt capable of flowing 1bar and why a proper ported one wud be someone on here must be running one tho! Quote
lukEp Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 I'm running 1bar on a standard Mani 6month not one problem It gets check regular and its still the same now as it was after porting no cracks/blowing....... when you fit it get new genuine toyota (see enzo he sells them for the same as toyota does) gaskets or it will blow !!

lukEp Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 yeh so long as the restiriction has been removed then you wont have a problem obvously you need supporting mods to run 1bar like at the minimum fpr and fcd decat airfilter exhaust system? oh and port the waste gate while the turbos off it'll reduce or stop creep Quote
Carl. Posted June 17, 2010 Author Posted June 17, 2010 i havent got a fpr.... didnt think it was needed with a jam ecu. just needed with fcd's Quote
ste91 Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 Don't use a FCD with a JAM ECU!You don't need it. The ECU does everything on it's own. Quote
lukEp Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 Don't use a FCD with a JAM ECU!You don't need it. The ECU does everything on it's own.X2 the jam ecu has all the restriction removed that the standard ecu has..... Fuel cut, speed cut etc...you will need some type of boost control though EBC MBC Hks actuator so you can up the boost to 1bar. sorry I've not seen your build thread so not sure of your spec. Quote
Amjad Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 Sorry to hijack, but would you need an uprated fuel pump/fpr? Quote
Carl. Posted June 17, 2010 Author Posted June 17, 2010 Don't use a FCD with a JAM ECU!You don't need it. The ECU does everything on it's own. dontttttt be sillyyyyyy i know im not saying that i saying i didnt think i needed a fpr if im not running a fcd(ive got a jam ecu, so i dont need to up the fuel pressure to make it run rich)that correct? Quote
Carl. Posted June 17, 2010 Author Posted June 17, 2010 p.s/ im fine with boost control, im just using hks actuator to set boost to .9 bar and it creeps to 1 bar Quote
james@cjperformance Posted June 17, 2010 Posted June 17, 2010 will be fine at a bar mate and still be safe worst that will happen is the mani will crack if its a crap job on the porting and socks didnt look to bad. Quote
ste91 Posted June 18, 2010 Posted June 18, 2010 dontttttt be sillyyyyyy i know im not saying that i saying i didnt think i needed a fpr if im not running a fcd(ive got a jam ecu, so i dont need to up the fuel pressure to make it run rich)that correct?Yeah that's correct, you shouldn't need any fuelling mods when running a plug & play ECU (up to 1 bar should be fine).
