Shawns 95 Escort GT

[Zexcort]

not to get farther off topic, but the boost cut i think is the afm hitting a certain voltage, why not maybe go to 460s and tighten the hell out of it to make up for the extra fuel... i know i read on the nz forums how theyve gotten over it...


and sorry zex but pumers already waiting for me to get my ms back to pull it for him... hes gonna move with his new toys....lol....

yeah i'ma get back on topic and not ruin shawn's thread but i will say this i had 460's in mine and it still hit boost cut...but i didn't adjust the vaf.....anyway to unhook boost cut?.......back to topic shawn how do you like the exhaust set up you have i'm thinkin about goin with a magnaflow muffler

[bomdoutscort]

Dude it sounds great. If i get the trubendz 3 inch i will get the magnaflow resonator again. Cant beat the sound and they are super cheap on ebay.

[yunvmyegt]

ya those trubendz are nice for the price, i might dump my cs exhaust eveuntually and switch over....

[Zexcort]

as much as i spent on my crush bent 2.5 and fart cannon i could have bought a corksport system.I think i'm gonna go magnaflow this summer and lose the fart cannon.I hate that big ass thing

guess what guys. i never had boost cut in my red car. i don't understand why so many people get it. do i know what it is yes i do. but not once did i have issues. i however did have right turn issues for the first it after boosting but that was a fuel pump issue.

I thought yours was wired to a exact gtx harness. If so then it might be something in the regular harness that is causing this boost cut or lean out in the 3 to 5000 range at boost levels above 10psi.

[Mazda_Powered]

Shawn, isn't your harness re-pinned to the GTX specs minus knock sensor?

[bomdoutscort]

Yeah but i think corksport did his and they might have done something we don't know about.

[bomdoutscort]

It might be a fuel issue and we might have to upgrade to a safc. After i try my vaf swap i'll let you guys know. Oh and i have a Y code but it just hasn't been on the car yet.

[Turpro]

He is running the 4 wire tps if that's what you're talking about.

We're goin to have to make a couple runs afterter I slap the ze in. I'm sure you'll kill me but it will be fun to see

NEUMAN

I'm confused! so you know whats wrong with ours why it's hittin boost cut?if so please tell it's killin me lol.


Whats the y code vaf out of shawn?.......and I skipped over the part where you said your car has power windows that is awesome mine looked exactly like yours when I first bought it but it was rusted all to hell and dosen't have power windows i've never seen an escort with power windows

[bomdoutscort]

THe Y code is the gtx one.

[neuspeedescort]

ok guys here it is. the red cars stats

gtx bp26 ecu
gtx harness - repinned for no knock sensor
gt u-code vam
gtx motor
gtx turbo
gtx injectors

im going to guess my no knock sensor is the fixer. but you seem to already have that. unless derrick pulled a fast one and did something top secret i didn't see him do while i was installing my motor. see i did my motor swap down in vancouver just derrick came over and did the repin for me while mysta316, and jason (before he worked there) did my motor swap.

as for what i just read about an safc. there is no need for one if you running a gtx ecu, gtx injectors with a vj20. its if you change the injectors you will need an safc.

That is the question. What did he do to your harness.
