Yeh their competition stuff is awesome, but I don't need competition speakers lol. Then I would need competition amps to power them, shit is just getting to expensive and so unnecessary! Type R's are about the best speakers you can get for the price I'm willing to pay.

Well I had a bit of a thought today that I should probably buy bigger injectors and the new turbo and get them installed and tuned at the same time, save money on tuning...

But I don't know what I want to do for injectors... I need something around the 550cc mark (target is for 400rwhp to be achievable with the setup), so I either want to go Nismo 555's, or something similar around that size, or highflow my stock injectors. I have heard that the spray pattern on aftermarket injectors is not very good, and high flowing the stock items is a good solution... But I can't find any information on it anywhere! Anyone know where to look?

I am leaning towards the Nismo 555's right now because they seem to have the best reputation. I really don't want to skimp out on my fuel system, so definitely want quality. If it is more expensive then so be it, I'll just have to save more. So has anyone got some better suggestions as to what I should use?

Something I haven't actually looked into is if the Nismo 555's bolt straight into my fuel rail, as that is something quite important to me as well. I don't really want to have to use spacers if I can avoid it, and aftermarket fuel rails is out of the question...

Got some research to do me thinks...

Please do :) I know next to nothing about injectors to be honest :(

Have done a little bit of research since I posted, I believe it is going to be very hard to find drop in items for the Neo, top feed high impedance injectors are not common :confused: Only drop in item I can find is the Nismo 480cc, but I don't think that is big enough...

I have also emailed United Fuel Injection to ask if they offer high flowing as a service...

Well, disappointed to say the least... Don't understand what is wrong, I just compared the graphs from Hyperdrive and Autoworx and they are almost exactly the same power curve, so I don't think anything has changed. Boost curve is also very similar.

Something is very wrong though, I just got 80kms to half a tank of petrol :confused: Filled up before I left this morning, it's 41kms to Autoworx according to Google maps, and my fuel gauge is now sitting on the half way mark with 85kms on the trip meter. Wasn't driving like an idiot, most of the time I was changing gears at about -10kpa so the turbo wasn't even starting to spool yet.

Also, the times I did put my foot down, all three of my boost gauges showed 13.5psi but I didn't feel anything at all, it didn't feel like it was boosting. Mind you I changed gears before 3500rpm, but I'm sure it usually throws me back in my seat before that... It was driving fine, I didn't really put my foot down today, but ever since I got it back from Hyperdrive it has driven well except for the fuel economy.

When KYP dynoed my car it made 220rwhp at 10psi with the crappy 2.5" cat-back and stock dump/front pipe and cat, and stock non-turbo fuel pump... How is it I have only gained 13hp by installing a 550hp fuel pump, 3" bellmouth dump pipe, 5" high flow cat, 3" straight cut cat-back, AND installed and tuned the NIStune ecu running more boost... I'm stumped.

Hope the Skyline enjoyed today because it's going to be staying in my garage for awhile now.

Its not a bad computer, its just a shit tune. Although it could be faulty computer, but I doubt it.
Time for a new tuner, me thinks! Talk to Mick from OvaBoost :)

I think I might Rhys :) If the NIStune was faulty surely Andrew would have noticed... There are cars out there using NIStune making over 600rwkw, so it's not the computer lol

Ay!
Its been almost a year since i destroyed a gearbox. Just a repair. N lots of driveshafts
Seriously i think u need to go to a workshop that u like, ask them what computer they prefer, buy that particualar computer and get it tuned.
Not buggering about with this old nistune.
Would get it sorted asap, coz if your car is running that rich then fuel will be washing down the bores, creating nil lubrication = excessive wear to your motor.

Hyperdrive are a NIStune specialist. Both them and ASG recommended it to me.

Well someone on SAU said that Andrew seems to ignore light load tuning and only focuses on full load tuning to save time. Which would make sense given I've been babying my car around... He offered to check it with his NIStune software, so if that is the case then I can take it to back to Andrew to get the light load tuned.

Thrash the crap out of it (low boost, obviously) and see how that helps the fuel consumption?
