Big *****...or small brain 15psi with no tune is scary dude

 

It was set for 10PSI, I think I better pay attention to who is near my open hood at the next event, I'm glad my tune is rich.

 

Ill bet that is what happened.... crazy dude! that is a messed up thing to do to a person.

 

I hope that isn't what happened, maybe it was just a fluke. I'll test it in a bit. Could have been a problem if I was lean.

 

What was your goodbox reading? that's why Brett speed recommends two boost sensors.

 

So this just occurred to me. When I was preparing for the Corksport event I was under the car and notice the the hose to the wastegate actuator was run a weird way and the line had a mild kink in it that I didn't like so I removed it and ran it a direct route from the boost controller to the actuator. I didn't really get into boost much on the way up there and back so I didn't notice it but I bet that line had a kink and now that it's fixed it was boosting more and screwing up my tune.

So many damn little things. Good thing it was rich. I also reset the boost gauge on the Good Box and the Prosport so I will see what the difference is on both now. The Good box boost gauge is fed from the "U" tube on the UIM and the Prosport is hooked up to the service port on the LIM.

 

nice simple article !

searching around, those staying NA are recommended on the ID 1000's... or OEM is still better?

 

There is no need to upgrade injectors if you are NA.

 

ID1000s on NA? I can think of no benefit whatsoever of upgrading injectors on an NA setup.

It would be like building a massive nuclear power plant to spring a light bulb.

 

Exactly save yourself the money and trouble

 

Light bulb would be lit forever though!

 

thanks 9krpmrx8 , Shelldude and danrobe... i enquired at Turblown and they still recommended me the ID1000's... mentioned that it might be handy if ever i were to go FI in the future and also kinda helps on replacing the 8 year old injectors on the car im on..

 

if your not going FI just have them cleaned for $150

 

What this guy said ---------------^

 

That's gotta be up there with the most unnecessary things I've heard in a long time. Which injectors did they say to replace? All 6?

 

Its called an up-sale and a huge spoon full of BS.

 

There is your first mistake.

I'm still rocking factory injectors they have 150k on them, I had them cleaned and flow tested at 125k. Of course the yellows are uncapped now due to the turbo....

Anyways, It's not difficult to swap the injectors out, unless you are a tech at a mazda dealership.

 

Don't ever ask Turdblown for advice again. You can get new or slightly used injectors for cheap but there are plenty of places to get them cleaned and flow tested.

 

Mazda Maniac will sell them to you at Mazdaspeed Race Price. I got Greens for $150 each from him brand new.

 

The point is he is NA there is no need to do anything.

 

but I thought we were always supposed to Add Fuel!!!!

 

duh, That's how you get mad FLAMES yo

 

well, ive dealth with Elliot over with Turblown..

he did not push me on the ID 1000's... i asked him and he just recommended me what to get... but i must say, he's work on my other stuff is dandy and the response is uber spooling quick..

i guess ill have them injectors cleaned and treat the lady on something skimpy ...

 

He's a scumbag and a hack, plain and simple.

 

So it appears I have been chasing my tail. I started over on my tune fresh and spent the weekend tuning and got stalled on my bank 2 injectors and after several logging sessions, my bank 2 injectors (stock yellows with 133,000 miles) are off by as much as 17% and were mostly off anywhere from -0.08 to +0.17 (-8% to +17%).

So now the question is, do I get a couple of the numerous injectors we have laying around cleaned and flow tested or do I get brand new ones and have them flow tested and install them? Rebuilt injectors are also an option.
