I have the following, 370 z32 injectors, innovative wideband, vafc2 (to control 00vi and tune), boost gauge ofcourse, oil pressure gauge, tranny temperature gauge (i really recommend it for us auto's). If you get 370 or bigger injectors, you should get z32 maf. since it wont max out like the stock one.

im runnin 5psi (.35 bars) and doesnt seems to max the maf, in other topic, yo guys i need some advice, i didnt realize that every morning when i start my car, and is very cold, i wait lets say 5 minutes until it reaches working temperature, i go on the street and if i put some revs on it (past 3k), it wont build boost (but i hear the turbo spools and the WG open, but not the bov) and it feels more like a restriction, then after a 10-15 minutes of driving the boost comes like if nothing happened, i said i didnt realize because everytime we go to the track we travel for 1 hour aprox. so this wasnt noticeable, any piece of advice?

Hey can you tell me more how your car runs. so i can compare with mine since im auto and turbo as well. When does boost start to come in and when do u get full boost?
#49
Of course i can man, that would be the smallest thing i could do for you, after all the support you give with your replies.
Well the car runs pretty well, as far as i know because i dont have any advice to measure the a/f, egt's, or any other source of fine tunning info (...yet) but about the spool time: it starts to spool at about 2.7k rpm and see full boost (.35bar) at 3.6k rpms pretty decent i guess, what is having me worried right now is the tranny, i only have wot drop resistor mod, and a hayden tranny aux cooler, so my next step is on the tranny: transgo shift kit and amsoil syn oil
PS: oh yes we have a g-tech is the only notion we have to measure, hehe and it says my tranny is shifting at 5885 rpms (reaching the highest torque at 4500rpms, I think that isnt normal) 1-2 and 2-3 so i guess something can be modified in there

Yes the DR is with a WOT switch, about the wideband i was researching and found this one from NGK new product actually
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NGK-A...spagenameZWDVW
and this one can be used with the emanage or any other advices to data log:
about the shift kit, at the home page of transgo is around $130, i already talk with the manager of a tranny shop and he will charge me $140 (1500 pesos) to do the work, and about the tranny oil you suggest mobil instead of amsoil?
PS: to tune with wideband, besides emanage what piggyback you suggest

"Yes, the AFX has a 0 ~ 5V, linear analog output for AFR that can be used as an input to an engine controller or data acquisition system."
That is the main thing to be concerned with. Other than that it's up to you... price, looks, extra features if any, etc. Plenty on the market to choose from, do your research.
I'd still like to know about the self tune feature of the EU and how well it works as I've heard not so good news from other types of cars that've tried it.

Well i have had success with VAFC2. Some turbo guys also use emanage blue, which i just purchased and removed my vafc2. Amsoil is an awsome fluid as well but more expensive i think. Everyone has had alot of success with both, personally i'll go with mobil 1 if i were you, just because I kno it works great.
the transgo shift kit sounds way too cheap. I would ask on here about the quality of their stuff before you do that.

Provided you don't have one already, check car-part.com for 1999 Infiniti I30 automatic transmissions, locking type P/N ends with "V"), and I bet you find some in California and Arizona for less money than a valve body. Best tranny mod I ever bought. Two seasons on the strip and still working great...

oh yes, well it starts spooling around 2700 rpm and hit full boost at somewhere between 3800-4000 rpm (i did a mistake in an old message putting 3.6k rpm), grey ill start looking for an I30 tranny then, ill be alert on your pm's, thank u very much

I larn quick, like, too...... Jime also teached me....

Iv learned that when you loose traction the tranny dosnt have time to shift into the next gear because its spinning so quick. so it hits rev limiter then shifts, do you know any ways around this grey99? this has been happening to me more often since I am now at around 7.5psi (untuned though) and it spins pretty bad when boost comes in. Usually right before the shift, I let off a little bit, but this causes to loose the built up pressure from the turbo.

We had more rain, sleet, and blowing snow, and it's down to 3 degrees F this AM - and my garage is awfully cold right now. Patience.
How does your car run with the extra boost? And have you run against your boosted buddies yet? Is your drag strip out east of town, on the way to the airport? I was using Google Maps to eyeball your back yard, and I thought I saw the strip.

I havent ran up agaisnt any of my friends yet. actually I only have one boosted buddy lol, and its another maxima but his in the 10+ psi range so no competition for him (YET) lol. I have to call the dude with srt4 that i went up against so that we can compare again see if the 7psi is any big of a difference.
As for our track, its here, Moroso
