Topgunz - air to air upgrade

TopgunZ · 01-03-2017, 08:00 AM

The only vibration that i have heard of was from someone that had the volute touching the frame.

However, I had noticed that the tbolt clamp on the throttle body was rubbing on my hood and I was suprised i didnt hear any vibration from it. That is why I recommend using the worm drive clamps there since it is a tight fit. Check your hood in that area for any contact.

Being that the charger is on the bracket, wouldn't that keep it off the frame? During the install I know that we double checked to ensure that the volute was not touching the frame and tried to follow the spacing as close to the pics you provided on the install manual. The vibration only happens for me on initial start up. I will double check everything again just to make sure as soon as I figure out this issue with my idle.

Check the clearance from the cross brace to the throttle bodies. Mine was almost touching and was causing knocks and rattles. I used 1/2 inch spacers to slightly raise the cross brace and that fixed the problem.

Found the problem...one of the T-Blolt clamps was hitting the Cross brace causing the vibration. It's not a big thing for me as its only during the initial start up. Now if I can just get this idle thing figured out.

Mine is all on now
Took a little longer as I have done a full install from stock as opposed to just swapping out water stuff

Spoken to my tunner late tonight he's send me a tune tomorrow so should get her running then

Can't wait now

Guys quick question... car threw a P0507 "Idle Air Control RPM Higher than expected." I am using the Turbosmart 25mm BOV and have it at the softest setting. Did some reading and got different points on adjustments. Should the BPV be slightly open at idle? If it isn't do I tighten it?

Your BPV needs to be open at idle. If anything you should loosen it. When i had the turbosmart on i had bought the lightest (blue) spring and even trimmed off a ring and a half to get the perfect amount of tension on the piston head of the valve. But, i did have the SI trim and 9psi pulley so it was pushing more air at idle. You should be able to trim down any of the springs to get the tension right.

OK....have it at the softest setting and it's still closed. How far open does it need to be? Do u think this is the reason I am.getting high Idle? We ran a smoker and couldn't find any vacuum leaks. Tried doing a Idle Learning via EcuTek but the tests failed and made my idle worse. Now idling at 1400-1500 RPM.

Weird thing is this just started happening. When I first cranked the car my idle was where it should be.....high 700s low 800s (RPM). Thinking it may be the Throttle Chambers but I'm not getting any codes for that.

You need a softer spring or cut that one down, it should be wide open at idle.

Glad I could give your dogs new bedding for Xmas.

Try the idle relearn procedure, not the one in Ecutek. Nissan has one, you can google to find it. I have to do it every couple of times I reflag the car.
