natural born nutter Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 Tried to derestict the boost in 1st gear on my ep91 glanza today. It worked the boost rose to 0.7 bar in 1st gear but then overboosted in 2nd 3rd 4th and 5th. When i planted my foot in 2nd the boos shot up to 1bar and then i let off so i didnt hit fuel cut. Same thing happened in all the other gears. Any ideas why this is happening. I had to return it to normal now its fine. Quote
Glanza_Ragger Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 If it shot to 1bar mate, thats past fuel cut anyway.Fuel cuts generally around 0.8-0.9bar.A specs list would help..Craig. Quote
natural born nutter Posted February 25, 2008 Author Posted February 25, 2008 My fuel cut is set at 1.1 bar my spec is HKS filterblitz fmicstainless exhaustcan you remap the standard ecu to set the fuel cut higher. Quote
Guest Enzo Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 remaping the standard ecu definatly is not possible. i so wish it was, the reason it is happening is due to your breathing mods im afraid, Quote
StarletRick Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 yeah, its that aitr filter and the exhaust thats doing it. you needs a boost controller mate. Quote
natural born nutter Posted February 25, 2008 Author Posted February 25, 2008 Cheers guys. Do you know which is the best one to go for on limited funds. I think i need an adjustable actuator as well because mine is weak as fuck. The boost is all over the place. Quote
Glanza_Ragger Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 If youre after a boost controller on a budget , and cant afford an electronic jobby, go for a manual "dawes device" type bleed valve, such as turbo smarts item.Be cautious of ebay copys though, as there generally wank and bleed boost/spike easily.. Buy direct from companys is my advice if youre after a bleed valve type.If you can save some pennys, go for an aem/hks/blitz type electronic jobby.. Even better, an apexi avcr..The apexis are slightly dearer but you have more functions on them.Forget the greddy profec b's unless its the older retro type because ive been through 2 solenoids and 2 control units, uber wank quality.Im running an aem truboost gauge, id highly recommend them.Craig.
