Question

Hi guys,

Restrictor goes inbetween solenoid and "T" or inbetween intercooler and "T" for a JDM STi-7 MY2001 ?

Cheers,
Ray

Cheers Jonno,

Need a few more posts confirmations before I change it and end up blowing up my engine or something

Cheers,
Ray

Ray,
I havent blown mine up yet

Do it, that is the where my original restrictor came from and was replaced to and Mr C also confirmed this to me with a diagram when he sent different sized restrictors to me

Cool

LOL....what a moron I am.....I had it set up incorrectly all this time !

Results with proper restrictor location:

Pete,

It seems I owe you a big apology. The restrcitor you sent appears to be the correct size or close to the correct size after all, I simply had it on the wrong side of the "T". My apologies again.

I am getting 13.5 psi / .93 bar max and .90 bar held in 1st and 2nd gear. I think I may be able to get this up to 14.5 / 1 bar with a slightly smaller restrictor. I am getting max spike at over 17psi / 1.2 bar in 4th gear 3,000 rpm then WOT. Same in 5th gear load test.

I have had no negative knock correction but lots of positive 11 points etc Waste gate duty % is over 90% at times. Fuel injector duty hits 85% at times. Are these ok ?

Thing I don't like is that in 1st gear I am getting .98 volts 02 reading and higher and 2nd gear and onwards I am getting a 02 voltage reading of over 1 - 1.015 at high rpms in WOT....that is too rich, no ?

Oh, I ripped the end (just the tip) of the hose (that contains the restrcitor) when trying to put it back on to the intercooler (connection from turbo) side (what a nightmare it is fitting that thing without taking the IC off.) Do you think it will continue to rip or will it be ok ?

Cheers again, oh by the way. the car feels AWESOME !!!! well obviously it does, from 10 psi to 14 psi will make a big difference I guess

Thanks again,
Ray
