is this car safe on this spec

[eoinnova]

glanza v

hks actuator
fpr
autobahn fmic
greedy oil cooler
boosting at 1.1
full 3inch apexi exhaust
standard ecu
no fcd
hybrid ct9
trd leads
front mounted airfilter
rsm
alluminium half rad
4branch
screamer pipe

told it was forged but how can you tell,
its a rocket to move k20 eater and b16 b18 proven.

well i dont think it would boost to 1.1 on standard ecu with no fcd , once setup correctly with the fpr it should be ok , might be pushing the clutch a bit too if its still standard

yeah i blew spring out of the clutch and then put trd one in it, its boosting at 1.1 for sure, yeah it seems ok no problems like, ecu is standard looking with no fcd or that, could it be changed inside or something

 

[popsy09]

if you cant see a fcd its possible its a jam/blitz ecu there self mapped loads of people run them on ct9/td04s etc but i dont think there would be need for a fpr then ha
chances are there is a fcd wired in maybe u just cant see it ,you would get fuel cut above .8 bar or there abouts

 

[eoinnova]

ok ill dig in and have a closer look hopefully il find something nice, but all i can remember is seeing a rsm wired up ..

 

[popsy09]

if its a different ecu there should be a seal on it with jam/blitz etc on it

 

[corofin12345]

must be something aftermarket fueling it, defo wouldnt boost at 1.1bar on a stock ecu unless there a fcd in there somewhere or aftermarket ecu as said

 

[eoinnova]

grand thanks lads

 

[starletburkie]

fcd may be wired in at the map sensor? or on the stock ecu loom, get a good look in behind the gloove box and see

 

[poke]

you sure its not a psi gauge you have not boost could be 11psi not 1.1 bar,fuel cut shud hit at .85 could be an uprated ecu aswell as said

to check if its forged drain all the oil out of the engine and whip off the sump its only 10 size nuts and bolts and you will see if its forged or not

so ill know by looking at the rods and that say?

 

[eoinnova]

no its a bar gauge lad, im gona have and check now and see

As said if you whip the sump off you can tell, stock rods are made from cast where as forged are aluminum or steel with a silicone compound inbetween, you can clearly easily distinguish between the two types of material which is forged and which isn't, the same goes for pistons if you get a torch up there. Some piston manufacturers stamp their name on the underside of the piston also

As for checking for a fcd, check behind the centre console as that's where mine was located

 

[eoinnova]

thanks ill do that, i found hks fcd behind centre console
