thanks. By september everything should be done with the car so i can start on the body.
I think the problem is the clutch which i have an ACt clutch. cause when im cruising nothing happens. even when i push it nothing stil until you feel the Turbo kick in. 1/2 second after that it studders. So im thinking its the cluth slipping. so ill install the act later this weekend!

EDIT:BTW its ok to use 550cc's primary & 1600cc's secondary injectors on a T78 or should i go with bigger injectors on the primary

Yea that is great and all if you only plan to work on your maps one time. Using your logic, $100 a pop on someone elses tools that can get expensive fast. It just doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

I would think a tuner wouldnt matter even if you brought your stuff. that he will still charge you the same.



BTW i came back from Lopez Racing and found out that studder in the rev was fuel-cut. so its getting tuned tomorrow

Damn. I thought this thread had potential to be cool. I thought I was gonna see an FD that was gettin prepped to race in the Lemans GT1 class....Well turns out its this hunk of **** thats about as far from a GT1 worthy car as it gets. How about you just hold the phone on buying more **** for your car and do some good research. It just might keep you from blowin your motor up...

Edit: Why the hell would you hit fuel cut? You have a PFC....

Normally I would just flame someone like you, but instead I'm going to give you the advice you need; sell the car and don't own another sports car until you're older, smarter, and have a larger budget... seriously!

It could certainly be fuel cut, the PFC has a fuel-cut based on exceeding the target boost levels by 0.25 kg/cm^3 or 3.5 psi.

DarkPhantom, while I applaud your attempt to do this all yourself, I think at this point, you REALLY need to get the car to a professional and let them check over the turbo install and ecu setup. Seriously.
