Bull5hit 265 rwhp, an N/A ECU does not have a sufficient fuel map to support that power, unless it has been remapped! Does it have a malpassi or a sard reg?

Never said it wasnt possible!With a 3TA or a 3TM computer it is What I said was it is not possible with an N/A computer like he says, as it does not have a sufficient fuel map to support it. Unless it has been remapped or has an adjustable fuel reg then I do not believe this power figure is safely achievable! Do me a favour and post up a dyno sheet with the AFR's on it!

Sounds great mate matouuks really know their ****, i would be very careful with a highflow turbo on an n/a ecu, what injectors does it run? Obviously not turbo unless the ecu has been remapped?

looks pretty neat.. and as for your question ATMO_BT1 yes my injectors were standard turbo injectors with N/A ECU.

Nice work morgs. and awesome looking car... sounds real tuff Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Nice work morgs. and awesome looking car... sounds real tuff No one told me, it made sense to me with duty cycles on idle and different cc's of fuel at different %'s for the different injectors etc, but obviously i was wrong so i'm not even going to argue lol, well done again guys, i was only asking. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

No one has posted me a dyno with afr's on it yet? An NA ecu will run with Turbo injectors Jack as they have the same low impedance, the difference is I think 260cc versus 280cc in size. What I want correct answers too is the fact that you are saying an NA ecu will provide more fuel versus the turbo ecu which has a much higher fuel map that has a factory correction set for the higher 280cc injector curve. Remember this an ECCS computer with a set factory graph. It can not sense or alter flow through the injector, the only thing that can is a Malpassi or a Sard and all I can see from the above photos is a std turbo reg?
