You spoke to them, when you ordered your turbo, right?
Did you actually talk to Sachiko and they have offices in Cali, right?

Not driving the car around, I have a saabaru for my dd now, it's normally the other way around. My concern is the long drive to EFI Logics oct 15. The car will be sitting in my driveway till that day just waiting. In that time I will install a few mods I mentioned above. Last edited by D-Rodman; 09-27-2012 at 01:37 PM. |

I may go out and pull them out since the motor is out of the car and it's so ridiculously easy at this point. One less thing to worry about later right? |

The Ej205 has both heater outlet/inlet on the drivers side of the block. The 207 one connection is there, and the other is under the throttle body, which means if you try to connect it using the USDM hose, it hits the clutch fork/return spring.

This:

On my V9 both outlet and inlet are on the drivers side.

Looks like i'm a few psi short at 6400 rpm. Gonna try a new air filter tonight to see if it helps. Mine probably has a good 75-80k miles on it. Since mine is a GC8, could the air flow from where it pulls through the fender be too restricted compared to a GD wrx/sti? Also, I assume that dyno was measured at the crank and not at the wheels? |

The 2 ports on the cover are normal. Can you post pics?

So is the fix just a longer hose?

Ok so upon returning to the garage, apparently I was just an idiot yesterday with the 2 ports on the valve cover thing(working on the car after being awake over 24 hours). Got that figured out. Non-issue.
The coolant/heater hose thing remains an issue so here's a picture of what I'm talking about: photo by dubbinfool, on Flickr As you can see there is one of the lines to the heater core on the top of the image(drivers side of the engine) in the same place it would be on the EJ205 that came in the car. On the 205 they were right above each other in that same place. On the 207 the other is located under the throttle body( the lower one circled in the picture) |

I doubt there's going to be much difference based on intake through the fender. Perhaps exhaust restriction or pressure sensor differences, whatever. EFI uses a mustang dyno, which is at the wheels. 270ish is pretty typical for a vf36/37 with decent bolt ons and a tune with maxed out boost. |

Changed the air filter and it didn't make much of a difference.
Here's the log I just took (starts at about time = 17000) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...tSzA1Ync#gid=0 Any ideas? Kind of stumped as to why my boost is tapering off so fast. Feel like I could make 13 psi at 6400 without e85 on an ej205.... |

As far as running timing on these i know its been discussed but what you guys run peak torque.(4400rpm ish) and redline say 7k or 8k rpms? It seems like my engine was taking somewere between e85 numbers and 93 numbers from a non jdm engine. more than i would expect it to and continue to make power. now that i am on e85 i did not add much timing. 3-4k across the board and leaned it out to 11.7 gas equiv afr. not sure how much timing is good on these before its just stupid. obv leaving it as is. 330whp and 350wtq on the virtual dyno Last edited by WhiteBgeye02; 09-27-2012 at 09:43 PM. |

You might be down a couple psi but its not a big deal. Mods, *tune*, altitude, temp, ect all effect it. If you want more boost uptop and more power just put a bigger turbo on. |

very true. you have to remember the map sensor is in the throttle body. so anything after that point which is restrictive will make it easier to hit the boost you want. like tgv's restrict flow so the back pressure behind the sensor reads say 18psi easier at a given flow. you do the deletes and at the same air flow rpm engine load etc etc. it now only might flow 17psi

Vehicle:04' WRX swap STi v8 TwinScroll 6MT |
Ever since version I completed the swap. I noticed a CEL, P0365 camshaft position sensor B circuit (Bank 1). I have a replacement sensor, not new, but I just finished changing the sensor and the CEL is still on -_- . I now have no idea what is causing the CEL. Or did I replace the wrong sensor??
* Where exactly is this sensor located? the sensor I replaced was located passenger side, rear side of head. - Btw, it does not go away when I get on the throttle. thanks, |

Did you disconnect the battery before swapping?

I also found that the WG actuator is a bit weak on the vf37. a lot of guys upgrade to an Avo one i believe but i just took a spring from my assorted box. wraped one loop around the pin between the actuator arm on the exh side and were the pin slides up through the bottom. and then drilled a small hole in the bracket that holds the WG to the compressor side for the other end of the spring to hold onto. it only adds a few psi but helped spool up a bit and holds boost fine but will open when i need it to as well. |

this actuator works very well. I and a few other of my friends and even my tuner uses them. they make different pressure actuators too. |
