Just finished wiring up the DIY FCD that I found on TeamFC3S's page by Paul Stoaks, and I was just wondering if anyone has tried this little mod ? Havent installed it on my TII yet, cause I need new meters, tester and power supply for my workbench , but I would like to know if anyone had any experience with this FCD ? Theory is good, and Paul has it down pretty good, but I would like some on-the-engine results...

 

OK. I'm testing it today afternoon, then I'll install it, and take it for a test-drive. Havent done anything to the car that'll cause boost to increase, but for right now I'll settle for proper functionality under normal boost levels. Then when my TID and downpipe are in, I'll see if it works well over 8psi...

 

Yes I have one,(built by Paul)it worked so well I blew my motor(only other mod was RB 3inch turbo back exhaust system).Be carefull if you have not made any provisions for extra fuel.

 

Yeah just got an email from Paul saying that this works, and it works well. I'm not planning on doing anything TOO serious, just a downpipe, catback (keep the main cat), and a more free intake (probably cone filter + coldbox + TID). I dont suppose these simple mods will send me over the 10psi limit, so I should be OK. Probably something about 8,5-9 psi. Thinking about installing a A/F meter just to be safe...
