Nems NA to TT conversion, with an added suprise ;)

I'm really enjoying a full manual reverse pattern turbo 400 at the moment. Epic in a straight line.

Not in a Zed though

 

Flex fuel setup is all here and ready for install, really wish it would stop raining though

 

Ok, work has been pretty full on so even looking at the zed has been hard to do.





BUT......

I pulled the plenum off the silver cars motor(to replace my ugly white plenum)




Rob and I then pulled the plenum off my slicktop and pulled the fuel rail and injectors out.


We got the injector adaptors into the lower plenum



That is how things sit at the moment, several fittings still need to be ordered along with an upper plenum gasket before i go any further. Will be replacing a million stuffed electrical connectors too while i'm at it.

 

I have a new upper plenum gasket handy if you want to speed things up.

 

That wont make the other fittings arrive any quicker..... besides a new one has already been ordered.

 

Sure. But it might have meant you could get the plenum on sooner.

 

Got a set of 55mm throttle bodies coming soon aswell. Keen to start tuning the damn thing :-D

 

Progress! BDE rails installed, Bosch 1000cc E85 injectors installed, still needs fuel hose, Balance tube modded and new coilpack connectors but its almost there! Used my JAP swat tune as a base map, i pulled a bit of timing out up top and resized the injectors and load scaling. We'll see in a week or two how it runs

 

New plenum looks badass

 

Yeah way better than the white. I got some E85 fuel line today, expensive as hell.

 

Okay, just need the balance tube welded up and im ready to start tuning this S.O.B... wired my wideband directly to the battery, next phase is the pre turbo water injection, we'll see how hard those tiny t22s can work.

 

Come school me on compounds and I'll weld your bar up on the house.

 

Its already being welded by a friend however i do need to give you the shifter bracket.

 

This happened today.....



Got it idling at a nice 14.8AFR, give it any gas however and the wideband jumps to 10AFR, then 20, then the car dies. My current guess is the injector connectors, have to have a quick look and make sure everything is in the correct spot and seated.

 

Pretty sure its the injector connectors may be mixed up, still have to pull the fuel rail off to chase the wiring back and make sure.

Tune is the exact same that i was running on the 370cc injectors, however i have used the Total injection multiplier(T.I.M) to resize the injectors to 1000cc and the latency from 750uS to 950uS as stated on the injector sheet. Car starts and runs, AFR sits at 14.8 and will then swing towards the 10AFR mark and then back to lean(off scale) if i try to give it slight gas, the car also sounds like a WRX as this is happening so i know for sure a cylinder or two isn't doing what its meant too.

I've tried four separate BIN files with the injectors resized and latency changed and it runs the same:
Top secret Jap tune
Swat Jap tune
Factory Manual tune
Factory Auto tune.

 

you could take the cas off, turn by hand and chase the firing order too listen to each injector click in time

 

Cheers, i will give that a go tomorrow.

 

Ok, sorted the running issue. One injector connector pin was loose and one coilpack decided to die aswell. Got that sorted and adjusted the total injection multiplier in nistune to get the idle/low end AFR's close. Car has no rego atm so i can't do much more but saying that i cant wait to take it out on the road and give the tune some loving





Also a small anti lag test

your catalysts hate you

 

Wanted to try more RPM but didn't feel keen enough Waiting on some fittings for the flex fuel sensor and then the fun can really begin
