What boost are you running?? Also did you pay him even though you unhappy??

Hey Vlade, update please. How much power are you making now??

Did Martin manage to sort out your car

?? Please send me your map, would love to have a look at it.

Nope... car still having an issue, when boosting above 0.4 bar it seems something gets stuck or suck, because the car stalls heavily then rockets off again...

Think its the FPR, but yeah Martin never tuned it... was the guy from Signature Performance only Martin's place was used.

I had that, it was plugs. Go back to BCPR6ES, gap them to 0.8 and you will be perfect again. I think it is because you are over fueling so much that you cant get the plugs hot enough so are sooting them up.

dont you mean the bcp6es?

Gary57 · Post by **Gary57** » Fri Jun 13, 2008 8:58 am

No BCPR6EC, the stock plugs.

what exactly is the difference between normal plugs and those with a resistor??? other than the obvious of course!

Gary57 · Post by **Gary57** » Fri Jun 13, 2008 10:43 am

The stock ECU requires a resistor plug, as with most stock fuel injection cars. The stock has a resistor hey BCPR6EC not BCP6ES??

ya thats what the R stands for in the part #

Vlade · Post by **Vlade** » Fri Jun 13, 2008 1:49 pm

R is for Racing yeah baby... must be wicket plugs...

I'll try that, I have to service the car the weekend anyway, its been 6 months since I last serviced it... I try 5000km or 6 months....

I'm confused now... BCPR6ES or BCPR6EC remember I have those ignition drivers thing's

Gary57 · Post by **Gary57** » Fri Jun 13, 2008 1:53 pm

I would think BCPR6ES.

IMHO, I dont think its possible to need enough fuel at 0.4 bar to kill spark on any plugs..., just a thought

RudeBoy · Post by **RudeBoy** » Fri Jun 13, 2008 6:56 pm

p.s if you really want to try new plugs try the BCPR7ET's used them on my 350KW 16Vkadett - boosting up to 1.8Bar running 7Bar fuel pressure with 800cc injectors (also used MSD6A) - only needed the msd after we passed 1.2bar

the hesitation/shunt/suck/suffocate happens about 0.6 but only when you put your foot flat, if you gently work your way up, it doesn't do it

and yeah i'm not running the standard ecu, so if it was tuned badly it might just be getting too much/little petrol at that specific stage
