Re: Surprise!!
Love the colour
Does it have the flyby throttle fitted or did they fit a x18xe inlet, what's the power like from the z18xe

If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway

Not to sure Johnny, think they fitted an x18xe inlet and tbf it kept up with my mates c20xe! but it's blowing from the cat so doesn't shift the way it should do..

Re: Surprise!!
Anyone know what bar my z18xe should be fuelling at?! it's set at 5-6 bar at the minute, needs to go on the rollers and get set up but means having to get a recovery truck and I just don't have the time or money for it I'd tow it but it's not insured or taxed either...

Re: Surprise!!
Don't know what stock pressure but 5 bar sounds to high
The ecu should adjust the fuel to standard ratio anyway, if it's over fueling the lambada would send the signal to the ecu and it would shorten the time the injectors are open
Is it standard injectors?

Re: Surprise!!
it's got an adjustable fpr on so needs setting up on the rollers, it's getting taken to a performance centre near me, not sure if it's on standard injectors tbh, but been told it's not stating properly because it's overfuelling so hopefully it'll sort that problem out and get it running right!johnny wrote:Don't know what stock pressure but 5 bar sounds to high

Re: Surprise!!
I know that but on modern engines you have to tell the ecu that it has an adjustable fpr otherwise it's going to cut back the time the injectors open for

Re: Surprise!!
oh yeah I know, it's all been setup already, it has been running before but the owner after the guy that built it fiddled around with it and f'd it up so I'm gonna get it running right, if not then it'll probably be getting a c20xe lump shoved in to replace it.johnny wrote:I know that but on modern engines you have to tell the ecu that it has an adjustable fpr otherwise it's going to cut back the time the injectors open for
