Ok thank you, I get it now. AFC is not a boost controller, but a fuel controller... makes more sense now - I was missing that link. For some reason i had in my head it was more of an electronic boost controller. I know peops use them heavily in this arena, and I think in DSM world too? I just don't know much about them (i know i know, READ UP!). WRXs aren't great with a AFC, I think probably cuz timing reduction is needed on wrx to keep it from denotating at higher boost levels. So most folks go with a more advanced piggyback for the wrx platform that controls timing as well.
thanks again, I'm learning new stuff by the day!
So on a side note -- Am I being to agressive running 13psi on a T67 turbo on the stock JDM 2jzgte fuel system, aside from also using mkiv fuel pump? I need to get an EGT or wideband in soon so I can monitor this --- last thing I want to do is blow this bad boy up!
What's a reasonable EGT for this car on WOT... 775 celcious at the entry of downpipe? Or can you say what temp not to exceed? Wideband not really in my budget right now, but EGT is less expensive and at least somewhat decent to monitor for lean conditions before I get setup for dynotune.
Anyone every modify the stock injectors to flow better? People in the suby world are hacking up stock 450's from regular WRX's (non-STi's) to flow over 700cc's reliably. And they are checking out on bench flow tests as well -- All for less than half the cost of new injectors. I guess that is technically like playing russian roulet though, if an injector were to fail, probably could be catastrophic. Or maybe not? No fuel, no burn, no burn - no BOOM. I guess if it were to fail to provide 'enough' fuel it could be catastrophic.
Don't know much about WRX tuning,timing,etc.,but one think is for sure:
The TCCS ecu,timing and ignition system on supras (specially on jz motors)
is something else!! You see,the basic fuel calculation system in the tccs ecu
is working very hard to keep up with increased performance and higher boost.
13 psi on T67 turbo and stock fuel system isn't agressive.But you should't
go higher without some tuning.But even with correct tuning you can't
go over 15 psi,cause you'll need bigger injectors and A/F tuning.
775 celcious EGT on the dp is ok,but you get close to the limit which is
about 900 celcious on the exhaust manifold!
I think the EGT difference between manifold and dp is about 70'celcious
more on the ex.manifold.Anyway just watch the A/F don't go over 12-1
and run to lean.Better be rich then lean.Some ponnies will go,but the
engine will stay in one piece :biglaugh: :biglaugh:
