You will find that E-Mance was a very bad idea, and the money you saved will likely cost you in the end.

Re: Turbo Blanket...effective?

I have both, and they do the job. A turbo blanket does reduce the heat coming off the turbo by a significant amount. nd don't spend 100$ on a bmc shield, its just a piece of metal. You can get one on eBay for 40$ or something. Both of those together should be more than sufficient in protecting your...

Re: Enthalpy tune for 50lb Injectors

Your injectors will probably have a different latency.

If the tune wasn't originally made for you (like you bought it or something), you need to have it retuned by Enthalpy for the new conditions you have. Anything otherwise would be completely foolish.

I don't care to analyze the post, but I will comment that people have issues with those injectors.

Such high goals should NOT be skimped in the tuning area. The AEM FIC is not going to be good enough to honor your parts. Get the AEM EMS, megasquirt, haltech, autronic, etc... I wouldn't do a Nistune since with MAFS you won't really want to go over 20psi, but I can bet you that once you hit 20 psi,...

R34SR, from what I have heard, the street tuning runs cooler because you have tens of thousands of cubic feet of air flowing past the motor, whereas the fan is actually pretty weak. But what you also have on the street is variable load. Hills, bumps, fat passengers, corners -- you name it. Things ar...

If you have changed any hardware at all, you need to recalibrate the background engine noise. This was essential for the TurboXS Knock Lite. If you changed even a small thing, the background would be tweaked some and so you should always recalibrate. Also, are your AFR still rich enough? Also, can y...

What I can say is this... you will have probably 100-200 hours of your life devoted to learning how to tune, tuning theory, and working/testing/fiddling on your car, before you will have a solid tune. You could go earn probably 1000-2000 dollars in that time and pay a professional. You could learn a...

That's also how cocky and reckless tuners do it, and you end up with a blown motor.

DW might as well be 'real injectors'. Call them up and inquire about their process. There is a reason they cost more than the redrill people but less than Nismo.
