Have had breif opportunities to play with it also on the S14/S15 DET. It works quite well - not only in controlling part throttle output but in affecting boost pressures above the natural regulated pressure of the wastegate actuator. A map sensor input into nistune, and a boost auto tuner similar to...

Only the S14L/S15 SR20DET have boost control thats worth messing with. The Z32 and others have a system where a solenoid allows vacuum (from just infront of turbo inducer) to evacuate/lower the pressure of the air incident with the turbo wastegate actuator. While this is open the wastegate is very h...

Is this relevant to the CA18DET when changing to a Z32 afm?

At the moment i run an independent knock system. If it were integrated to some degree with all usage (nisboard/normboard+emus) that would be great. I heard knocklite's system was being tested as an input to nistune?

I had problems similar to this. It was fine on some cars and was frequently dropping out on others.

I have less (and less frequent / virtually no drop outs after beginning to use a new laptop (and also grounding the ecu case, and any other equipment.)

Hey - 1:1 as per factory. It's flow range is greater.
Base pressure setting range is 200-800 kpa - i set mine to factory spec (~38 psi with no bias from the manifold for ca18det)

Rising rate are evil. - added tuning complexity for no reason with most EFI cars.

Sounds like a regulation problem to me!

Are there any hi-flow FPR's around that will go straight on without any messing about?

Thanks

As far as messing around - the adaptor to the rail is needed. I had one made, but i now know they are available for virtually every nissan.

Moates Ostrich 2.0

After updating the emulators with the current firmware, the emulators fail to work with any tuning software i have - apart from EM utility. With EM utility upload and download is working fine - the emulators seem to be in full working order. With Nistune & TunerPro RT connection errors occur - d...

On my ca18det i use a sard regulator - it's suitable for higher pressure fuel pumps. On the standard fuel pump it made a vibrating noise - i found out this was due to the flow back to the tank was achieved with a much smaller diapram opening. With a high flow pump it works great - the valve floats a...

Use a larger diameter / high flow capacity regulator - they are able to send large flows back to the tank which suits eager pumps :-D

Most RB20's have two factory regulators - which seems to handle the jandle.
