i have a boosted gsr in a del sol, running 9psi, 450cc inj., VAFC2, if i take the missing link off it throws a map code at 6psi, but not if the missing link is on, and now i am at 9psi and it throws a MAP code either way. SOMEONE PLEASE tell me where i fucked up. thanks

 

u fucked up by using a missing link....use some proper tuning

 

ok genious, what should i do then?

 

what did she put down the other night??

 

if it is the map sensor code you might be able to run a 3 bar map sensor. i heard of some people useing it on turbo'd cars.

 

Remove the missing link and let the AFC scale the MAP voltage. I have never used an AFC before, but you deff. do not want the missing link in there. The AFC needs to see the unaltered raw map voltage generated by 'seeing' the boost.

ok i took the missing link off, now it runs WAYYYYYYYY lean and throws a map code still, what do i do? give up and try something else?

 

It sounds like the VAFC is not setup corectly. What settings are you using?

Here's some info on the hack.

ok i fixed the MAP code, then blew an IC fitting for the lines, replaced the fitting and on my 6psi spring it reads 10psi, gradually increasing as revs go up, anyone had this problem w/ a TIAL wastegate before? or any wastegate? and if so, what can i do? plz help

 

if i was you i would try running without the vafc. and just try without it and see what happens.And where do you do you have the tial wastegate read from? tial wastegates are the best

 

the boost gauge is hooked to the intake manifold, but the wastegate is hooked directly to the turbo outlet housing, maybe i will try hooking up the boost gauge to the same place as the wastegate and see what that ends up saying, let me know if you have any other suggestions. thanks
