curtis1932 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 So i got my 96 v 3 week ago and it ran ok for a day or too till i started doing work on it i have put ob a fmic hks actuator on a stock ct9 relocated the air filter it alredi had a turbo back and i also added a greddy profec b 2 which i have now taken of to rule it out. So the car will boost up 2 0.5 bar rali slow i mean rali slow then as soon as it hits 0.5 it pulls hard up 2 1.0 bar befor hitting the fuel cut which i fort fuel cut was at 0.85 any way i have wraped the filter with a rag to reduce the air flow incase it is breathing to much dens air with it being too cold and still the same plz can some 1 help i always want Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gainzy Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 What boost gauge are you running? When did it start to happen? I would take a few steps back put the stock actuator back on for now see how it runs, yes 0.85 is fuel cut it sounds like bad boost spike you could just turn the ebc off, I would change the oil/filter give it a mini service, this might help I would suggest upgrading ecu before messing with the ebc imo check all of your intercooler pipes over and over make sure all the boost pipes are correct.

Ryan_EP82 GT Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 (edited) Curtis oil light flickering is oil pressure problem not oil level!! Check oil pressure mate as engine could be on its way out if the light comes on! Could be a faulty or dying oil pump. And always keep the oil full to the full mark not halfway!

Ryan_EP82 GT Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 You could end up spinning a shell and requiring a full bottom end rebuild and new crank if you lose oil pressure Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Chances are if it flickers its a faulty sensor/wiring issue. My light flickered for ages but oil pressure gauge showed everything thing was fine. Trying replacing h sensor or cleaning the area around the wire. Its the plug on the block by the thermostat, wire should have a spade connector on the end Quote Link to post Share on other sites
