You're correct. Well it was not badly cracked. Just a hairline. Barely noticeable until I looked closely with flashlight. What solved the problem was I ported it around 3mm more. Decat gasket was causing problems too. Got it all sorted and now boosting 12.5psi and no fuel cut

Hey mate. How did you get around this fuel cut prob?

Sure did. Now all fixed. Found 15 different leaks lol. However, I have HKS actuator with 2 turn preload. Spools great but getting fuel cut. The boost keeps on creeping. Even with no preload, spools late but creeps to fuel cut on 3rd. Any pointers?

Do I connect the smoke machine to the EFI pipe?

I'll give it a go. Thanks bud

Hey guys. The search option was not helpful. Looking for advice.

Hey guys great news! Changed the plugs to NGK BKR7EIX (Heat range 7). The problem is solved and holding boost well around 11.5-12PSI in 3rd gear. Next on the list is the GReddy Profec OLED boost controller. Can I use the EBC to get 12.5PSI stable throughout all the gears?

Hi guys. Got myself a new HKS actuator past week. Installed it as per to the given instructions. Set it to 123mm (0.8 bar) below fuel cut. Car boosts at 9psi 1st gear. 2nd gear 10-11psi but around 6k rpm the car just lets go for a split second feels like hitting the rev limiter once. Happens on...

Thanks lad. I switched mine from another 4efte. Did the job.

Hey chaps. Will any single wire 02 sensor work for the 4efte ep82? I'm running a decat if that makes a difference...

I'll keep that in mind Jay. I believe right now I'm running slightly advanced timing. The last time I ran 10 degrees, it was as flat as a pancake. Any suggestion on that would be epic!

Can I up the boost with stock actuator via manual boost controller? If I raise it to 12-13psi, what ignition timing should I run? Please note, fuel quality is utter garbage!

Thanks for your input jay. I'll trying switching the coolant temp sensor.

Thanks for your input bud. Cooling is in top shape.

1995 EP82 GT Turbo. For the life of me can't get to fix my idle. Idle drops to 500 rpms and alternator belt starts squeaking. Happens when coming to a stop specially after a spirited drive. Tried setting idle both from the throttle body screw and the throttle cable underneath the throttle...
