Re: What is stock ka24e ignition curve?

Hey tchida, adamky put a map up on my other post in ecu tuning. It should be a good starting point for us. I'm going to put it in to my system and see how it likes it. May drop a few degrees to start with.

Re: ka24de/e stock ignition cure/map.

No that's great. Not doubting you guys, I was just a little surprised at the the amount and quick increase of advance at low rpm.

Excellent info. Many thanks. I'm sure this will help.

Hi all, as the title says, I want to know what the stock ka24e ignition curve is? Does anyone have a reference for this or have mapped it prior to going turbo? I have searched the Web many times looking for reference maps or information buy no luck. I am mapping my own ignition curve for lpg but wou...

Hi mate. Not sure if you have read the turbo stickies yet but if not please do. These answer many questions you may have. And basically give you a recipe per hp goal. For your horsepower goals a freshly built engine with quality std. parts is adequate. Many people opt for forged internals to allow f...

Re: Supercharged Hybrid Z24/Ka24e Build in D21

Thanks Adamky. I think I will add an extra resonator as you suggested. The hotdog style glasspack resonator I have at the moment is probably only 12" long. Adding a second unit that's maybe 18-20" should make for a better sound. Despite the exhaust noise, there is no hiding the supercharge...

Hi, The problem sounds like you may be getting inconsistent ignition load reference.

Re: Novice Ignition MAP kPa question

Thanks for the reply guys. After your comments and some more conversions i have realised i was looking at the 70kpa backward. 70 of 100kpa being 30kpa absolute rather than gauge. Thanks. Now to adjust my map.

Re: KA-t Setup Questions

Many Nissan turbo use a composite compressor wheel which are known to fail if pushed being factory pressures.
Turbo is small but can be usable and even better if you swap a comp wheel from another Nissan turbo.
I had a mix n match Nissan turbo on a 2.2l 4cyl and it went decent.

Re: What Boost gauge do you use and why?

Thanks Supakat. Tru boost looks good. Not much help for a supercharged engine but I'll consider it if I swap this engine to turbo.
I've always liked the look of the Turbosmart E-boost 2.

Tune is finally drivable on boost. Still has some issues. Rich on cruise and boost but lean from 2nd or 3rd gear roll on. Only making 5PSI at the moment, well at least that's what my stuffed boost gauge says. LOL The Vortech mondo works awesome. Its very responsive and that's just on its factory set...

Had a look at the speedhut gear, looks good and lots of options. Also plenty of kmh gauges which is nice if i decide to go a full set.

They seem to be comparable to vdo prices as well.

Re: What Boost gauge do you use and why?

Im sure autometer make some good products but my gauge is not one of them LOL.

I've seen videos and read some info that argue electronic gauges are not as quick or accurate as mechanical gauges. That said peak hold features that the stepper motor gauges can provide are pretty handy.

Hey looking to replace my autometer super light 2" boost/vac gauge (20psi) as it sucks. Not sure if its typical of the brand or type but it sticks and has a lumpy movement. I was looking at maybe the turbosmart, innovate G3 boost or a good old VDO 25PSI boost vac. Any comments or recommendation...

Cool, this should be good.
Not that I don't like a good rotary, but always thought an I4 in an RX7 would be cool.
Like a cooler version of an mx5 lol.

I've seen a few other people talking about this swap or doing it.
Mostly people trashing mixed make swaps.

Good luck, should be fun.
