LeeT Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 ive just fitted sbcid boost controller and trl vfcc and im hitting fuel cut at 1.18 bar. did any one else have to alter the trl factory settings to overcome the fuel cut? i'd ideally like to set it up to run 1.3 bar without hitting the limit,can anyone recommend the settings to change to? cheers ...lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 I've also got the TRL FCD and I still hit fuel all the time, although it's at around 1.25bar. I've been tempted to turn it up a little but I haven't because running > 1.2bar isn't really a very good idea. I've got a CW restricor ring but haven't fitted it yet.

JohnK Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 I fitted mine a few weeks ago, defi peak is reading 1.2 but ive yet to hi the cut. Maybe It hasnt held there long enough. VFCC at standard settings btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a CW restricor ring but haven't fitted it yet. the idea of the fcd is to remove the fuel cut as it will eventually do some damage to your engine if you keep hitting it so it would probably be wise to reset it and limit your boost another way(fit that restrictor). as mine is a uk spec and i have FMIC on way im quite happy to run at 1.3 bar:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soonto_HAS_soop Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 Originally posted by leett i think the standard settings are set at 1.24bar so you should be alright. Not necessarily set at 1.24, I had mine fitted and a de-cat and managed to hit around 1.4 I think, had no signs of fuel cut eiher. Ben..

LeeT Posted May 24, 2004 Author Share Posted May 24, 2004 ive now been in contact with pete betts who advised to turn overboost to position F which i have done and im still hitting fuel cut. could this be a faulty unit? theres 12v to it and its grounded at the same place as my sbci-d which works fine. i double checked which wire to cut into when fitting with the uk spec ecu pin outs. so im 99% sure its all wired in properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
