i would like it running optimal and it to be reliable i know i need a afpr and i am gonna get a full throttle. i was wondering what fuel pressure to set at and what timing should i shoot for. also is there anything i really need to focus on like ipw, fuel trim i am also getting a datlogger. i got a chance to do one log with my frends logger.it gets phantom knock bad which i dont know what could be causing it if it has a new motor there shouldnt be carbon problems or anything what else could it be besides loose parts. i am going to check for boost leaks and it only pulls 15 psi of vacuum at idle. could the stock fpr being overun cause knock. the fuel trims are all 100 and the boost is only 15 is this too much for a smic. i really dont want to push it until i get all this stuff figured out so yur help will be greatly appreciated. Happy Boosting
 
congrats on the car and the amount of mods it has OMG

oh and what's a full throttle? afpr should be set to around 40 psi.

okay, i just read over your mod list and i'm kinda scared for you. you have bigger injectors, a bigger turbo, bigger fuel pump, MAFT and NO TUNING DEVICE!??!?!? dude i wouldn't even drive it until i had it tuned...

do that and check for boost leaks.. but BE CAREFUL :cry:
 
holy crap that is a badass list. too bad youre missing the most important part of owning a dsm, TUNING.

but thats ok, youre getting there with the safc and the logger. more than likely once you tune it the knock will go away and itll be so much faster than untuned.

Full throttle speed & style AFPR is what he means.

But like he said, tune first!!! You wouldn't want to break all that new shiney stuff and turn it into a pile of... well, useless shiny stuff would you???
 
ok so i need an afpr and set it at like 40-43 at idle with vacuum and a safc to tune it. what timing advance and injector duty cycle and pulse width should i look for. i know to tune for no knock but what else should i monitor with a lgger while doing 3rd gear wot runs?
