depends on the boost you're running really. Copes fine with low boost conversions (0.5bar). For anything more, yes i'd want to run a traditional setup with a return line and boost compensation vac/pressure line to the reg

There's a regulator in the pump carrier. It works fine on cars over 250bhp on the standard pump so i dont think it's an issue.

I'll see what i can do, prepping a car for a trip to the ring and leaving at 4am thursday, should be able to get over though

Autodata is completely wrong for the 2.0 clio

I'm in Frome monday - thursday next week. I'll have my Locking tools with me

probably as it was unmapped for the cams. 428s do strange things in the mid range

yeah, that before graph looks pretty terrible actually, very exagerated peaks and troughs

characteristic of the 4-1 (172) manifold. the 4-2-1 (182) manifold smooths it out almost totally

pulling to the limiter is the opposite characteristic of cam timing being wrong

ALL cams need to be advanced if the VVT is still fitted. when not activated, the inlet is retarded to give a smooter idle. Non VVT cams are a different proposition maybe trying activating the vvt on the dyno would have helped you rather than guessing

Adey, you got my number? gimme a shout if you want me to look it over

jesus, that was running the gauntlet a bit! I would have been about £470 for reference

if it's had a full cambelt kit on it, the only part left to be damaged is the cam pulley and crank pulley damper. Both the crank pulley and exhaust cam pulley have a rubber layer, could have been melted maybe?

Waste of time. I've got an older car through an MOT by fitting one temporary, but that's about the only use i've had from one

is it an AMD processor? my old one ran red hot and turned itself off a fair few times too. I just installed speedfan and kept an eye on the core temp

rear sensor not working will be why the light is on. That's all it does though, doesn't effect the running of the car

covering problems and extending the life of the bottom end ;) the SR20 has issues with the cam spray bars clogging if the oil isn't regularly changed, if they clog, the cams and rocker arms start to wear and lots of lovely swarf floats around the engine until it ruins all the bearings...

dont use collars!!! they ruin what's left of the original bush, and they dont work anything like as well as just doing it right and poly-bushing from the start. Best thing you can do to the handling of a 200sx is polybush the rear subframe bushes and front TC arm bushes. I've done a LOT of...

high 20s, low 30s. My RSI with F7R regularly does 35mpg, but modern engine management, well setup has sorted that

Symbian software is what's killed Nokias edge on the market. It just can't keep up. I'm shocked anyone else has actually bothered with it

they do look a little different yes

try some 421s, seriously, they s**t on 428s

yeah agree with that bit, although the power is quite late in the revs with a not very good spread. Wont see a big bump in bhp figures when added to ITBs though, just a far better power and torque spread once you have throttles

nah, no way, 428s are too mild for that. not a big top end gain from them. 421s maybe. Perfect cams for ITBs on stock compression

That's about it.

just had a look at that write up they did and it said the car was under 160. That's oddly low and didn't realise cams had been changed. should realistically be in the high 190s with ITBs and 428s. Does indeed sound cam timing related now I know cams have been done.

yes, should be able to. All that's needed is a simple output that switches at around 1600rpm

unfortunately for you, this is why paying cash for a private job doesn't pay off. No Warranty.

Megasquirt isn't an organisation, it's an open source project. multiple reasons. It works in a different way
