    Cas install causing poor performance

    Yes, took me the same amount of time in my previous search, thanks. I was confused as to if the mpi and mfi are the same or different. I now know they're the same. I wouldn't have asked unless i knew for sure.Turns out i get 5v when the car is cold but when it was warm i wasn't getting the...

    Cas install causing poor performance

    So, i tested the wires going to the cas with the key in the on position. The cam and crank wires aren't getting the 5v they're supposed to. From my research these wires lead to the mfi relay? Does anyone know where the mfi relay is located?

    Cas install causing poor performance

    That will be the next thing i do then. As an update, i sent my ecu out to dsmlink to test and have serviced. They said the boost control solenoid driver was bad and replaced that. They also replaced the electrolytic capacitors as preventative maintenance. Told me it was a non-turbo ecu that was...

    Cas install causing poor performance

    I don't have any dsm friends to try that. What wires do you recommend?

    Cas install causing poor performance

    I don't think it's the cable or software but the obd1 port itself. My friend has a shop and he tried using his snap-on diagnostic scanner with the proper obd1 adapter and it wouldn't even power on.

    Cas install causing poor performance

    That makes sense now. I ordered an aldl cable for obd1 to usb from reddevilriver.com along with tunerpro rt. I've followed the cd-rom, youtube tutorial ,and dsmtuners write up and the program will not connect to the ecu. Can anyone suggest another datalogging program or is this cable/program...

    Cas install causing poor performance

    This car is giving me this problem on and off. It spools nicely now (put a bleeder hole in the mbc:thumb:) and pulls hard sometimes. Other times, under wot through a turn, it'll backfire and sound like a stutterbox and won't power through it. It also cuts out for a split second high in the rpms...

    Cas install causing poor performance

    Just checked my plugs and they are black. I cleaned them with a torch and wire brush and the car seemed to accelerate a little better (could just feel fast compared to the altima i've driven for the past couple days) altough it's still not coming on hard into boost. Maybe i should get a set of...

    Cas install causing poor performance

    I already swapped coil packs and my original pack tested fine.

    Cas install causing poor performance

    All good. The plugs and wires are less than 500 miles old. plugs are ngk bpr7, wires are ngk

    Cas install causing poor performance

    Yes, It's definitely not the mechanical timing. There is still something going on that's causing my timing to retard. I don't get it. Is there some sort of magic spell involved lol? I've triple checked everything, tested CAS, tested coil pack, tested power transistor, checked mechanical timing...

    Cas install causing poor performance

    After adjusting the ignition timing yesterday and test driving it today the car isn't as bad as it was. It's not back firing anymore and only breaks up/slightly cuts out under boost. The response and spool time is still laggy but not as bad as before. It pulled like hell in the upper rpms for...

    Cas install causing poor performance

    Yes, i did the t-belt roughly 3000 miles ago and then i re-did it twice to check mechanical timing back in february i can do it again if need be. Today i aligned the cam marks and the HB mark lined up with the TDC mark on the timing cover. I also checked the timing on the motor with the plug...

    Cas install causing poor performance

    I figured that the maf would be good. The cas is in its correct position. I am convinced that it has to be timing related. I am going to go through the ignition timing procedure again after i first check that the hb tdc mark lines up when i align the cam gears. When i had previously did the...
