I have searched, but did not find an answer.

Will I hit fuel cut if I have a K&N drop in filter, and no cats (3 inch pipe from turbo to stock Y Pipe).

Everything else is stock.

Thanks

 

Yup.

yes.

and if you add an FCD you will blow you engine within 1-2 weeks

 

unless you're running an upgraded fuel pump and FCD than will it last for more than 1 - 2 weeks?

 

Thanks! exactly what I wanted to know.

Will I still hit fuel cut if I have a stock filter and replace the pre cat with a downpipe and keep the main cat?

Thanks

 

I use this as a rule of thumb.&nbsp Roughly...

K&N air filter panel +1psi
Cone filter +2psi
pre-cat replacement w/downpipe +2psi
main cat replacement w/straight pipe/pre-silencer +2psi
cat-back +2psi
TID replacement +2psi

Stock Zenki boost 5.5psi
Stock Kouki boost 7.5psi

Stock Zenki fuel-cut ~6.5psi
Stock Kouki fuel-cut ~8.5psi
(I believe these fuel-cut numbers are debateable - I don' t have them memorized.)

i think you can get away with your last setup!!

 

depends on the condition of your turbo/wastegate. i didnt hit fuel cut with those mods, but i came really close.

 

OK, so I CANT have the K&N and a downpipe without hitting boost cut?

So I shall geta new stock air filter and a downpipe.

Thanks guys!

 

zenki cuts fuel at 8.6psi just like kouki.

 

Someone told me that once to!

 

my s4 is on approx 6.5lbs and it's never hit fuel cut...

is it bad to hit fuel cut, or just annoying if you want more boost? Will it hurt anything?
