wouldnt think valve springts have anything to do with it.. Oil presure light is a indication of oilpressure loss... turbo oil screen could be clogged up, as the presure switch is mounted on the same fitting... oil pump could be failing ?? a number of things.. take it to ford is your best bet. and get them to check the turbo oil filter just near the oil filter where the presure sensor is.. danny.

ohh where is that thread.. think we need to bump it ohh under the section "D"

Something in the suspension could have been giving that feeling it was single wheeling... But I guess something has hung a leg.. Be itneresting to find out what it is.. My car is booked in to get the inner top bushes (which were replaced for camber offset adjustable bushes) in to get changes, as I've chewed out the drivers side one.. But you dont have the camber kit in the back of your car as far as I remember right? danny.

my guess its related to control arm, or more so a control arm bush..

Believe me.. We are still looking So many add's.. So littly time

[quote name='ratter' post='541006' date='Jun 5 2007, 10:32 PM']Capa tuners should have a set of value files they will be able to use for these injectors, but Danny may have a set of fine tuned files that may be better.[/quote] number 1 mistake i made was using the 60lb value file.. would keep stalling, you name it... but i believe that the 60lb value file is designed for american returnless fuel systems, not our 4 bar fuel system.. as it made changes to the fuel presure delta tables.. can you say ewwww? never the less i would suggest starting with these values.. keep in mind these values SHOULD be on the "rich side" of safe.. (no garentee's given) (KEEP IN MIND THESE VALUES ARE ONLY FOR 4BAR FUEL PRESURE AS PER XR6T and F6's RUN) breakpoint 0.0000166 hi slope 0.0195 lo slope 0.0315 min pulse 0.0004 Use with caution, and make sure your tuner adjusts the hi slope appropriately (it should be made larger as these values should be rich), he will find the lo slope can be made larger as the idle will be rich also...

[quote name='Orrie' post='540946' date='Jun 5 2007, 08:21 PM']Turned up today. Thanks Danny, i do not intend to use them for a little while but when they are installed does the tuner need to know any conversion factors to get them spraying correctly ? If so is this info freely available or will you need to supply it ? PS Will send PM with email address for receipt Orrie[/quote] Yeah, The tuner needs to rescale the hi and lo slopes in the programming.. relatively easy thing to do, but if he has any trouble, let me know and i'll give ya some starting numbers to work from.. danny

Dont touch the cat!!! The car is not a problem until higher power levels.. Beleive me on that.. Do Clutch and Cooler

[quote name='groper' post='540071' date='Jun 3 2007, 11:33 AM']yep i understand all that, but what i dont understand is why C&V`s car is not over boosting beyond 16psi without the wastegate done... and its running 370rwkw (measured thru an auto) with boost spike up to 16psi then tapers back down to 13psi at 6000ish rpm with just 8psi spring... which i think is pretty much fine... why doesnt it go all the way up and over 20psi which youd think it would with that much power??? the dyno graph is posted in process west section if you havnt seen it...[/quote] Chances are this car still has a cat in the exhaust, so the overboost would not have been so great.. it IS possible to tune a car even though boost in uncontrolled via overboostung (thats what envy-t's is doing at the moment), but really depending how good everything before and after the engine is flowing determines how much it overboosts..

[quote name='groper' post='539769' date='Jun 2 2007, 02:19 PM']whats the deal with the wastegate? i understand that supposedly it doesnt flow enough gas to keep the turbine speed down at high power levels, but C & V say they dont need to do it, all they do is fit an 8psi spring... im referring to the orange car that they put the process west plenum on... i dont understand why they dont need to do it, can you explain it for me?[/quote] To make power you need air and fuel and ignition.. The more air and fuel into the cylinder, the bigger bang, the more power, and of course the more exhaust gas. So more power is more exhaust gas. Problem is, the wastegate port is not big enough. During the day envy's car holds boost fine with approx 12psi topend. Remeber he has no valve springs.. At night, the airs colder and more dense, so that resulting with more fuel (computer compensates based on air temp) results in bigger bang. With a intercooler and a good flowing exhaust the engine produces more exhaust gasses which the standard wastegate cannot bypass hense pushing the boost up.. On standard injectors, this is like 12psi top end... afr's are in the 13's.. Bad. Injectors made his car safe. But if you had a restrictive exhaust on the car, it would pose backpresure on the gases after the turbo and encourage more gases to bypass out the wastegate keeping boost down. Envy has the standard 3psi actuator on his car.. So according to c&v's comments, does he goto a 1.5psi actuator?? No. On my car, I have a 12psi actuator. When I put my nizpro stg2 kit on, at night immediatly it overboosted to like 18psi.. That's even with the actuator connected directly to turbo bypassing the boost control. Mind you I had alread modified my wastegate port.. Lession 1, I didn't modify it enough. So I took the turbo off again, opened it up and also setup the flow to encourage more exhaust gas flow to the port. Put it back on, and presto, no more overboost. A 8psi actuator would not have helped my problem. A quick fix was to put a restrictive cat into place. So before you think gutting the cat is cool, thing again, it will give you overboost issues, and your tuner nightmares.. Lol

[quote name='SCRIBR' post='539709' date='Jun 2 2007, 09:51 AM']headsex did...in 27 minutes wasn't it [/quote] We have done it in 27 mins before yes.. That's with with of us. And that's where the fuel rail comes up without the loom for th 2 front spark plugs don't stopping it. Hense why marcus was told to pull the top off so I could fix it. Tool what 1 hour? I wasn't keep track of time

[quote name='phase3ute' post='539707' date='Jun 2 2007, 09:41 AM']have you fitted the squirters yet?[/quote] Done it last night.. Oh and its not a cbf tune scribr.. I spent some time on it lastime. Changing the injectors is a easy reprogram with more boost added. After a while you can guess roughtly what duty cycle to add to get you to certain boost. He needs valve springs and actuator. But more importantly the wastegate done as it overboosts, the boost stays around 12psi top end on a night like last night regardless of duty cycle. During the day its controllable..

[quote name='SCRIBR' post='539420' date='Jun 1 2007, 05:01 PM']none so danny.. when when when?!?!? p.s i thought u said u ordered 30 sets not 27 [/quote] LOL.. i knew someone would count them... A few have been pulled aside.. Thats only the group buy lot.. will PM everyone with my mobile.. tonights a good night to come geet em.. i'll either be fitting envy-t's set, or out "cruzing" danny.
