Effects of a '96 R ECU in '97 T5?

On an R ECU you don't hit fuel cut until 17psi as with the t5 it was 14psi I think. I was running 14psi with a MBC. You have to tighten your wastegate a little. 4.5 was stock for R and 3.5 for T5 I believe. That should get you to around 12psi. Good luck.

The MBC goes inline with the line from the TCV to the wastegate. That is all you need to do. Leave all other hoses alone. Should be fine.

Question about Gauges

Oil pressure is always good to keep an eye on. A wideband gauge would be best for watching A/F ratio. I made my own pod by the radio.Image

And I have my wideband in my vent.

ASE Certification

Yeah that wouldn't be hard to do. You may need to start a job before you can get ASE. Double check on their web site. You can create an account if you want at myase.com. You can also find test study guides online you can order them and look though them at home. Good luck!

Backfire, what caused this to happen?

Pretty common to get popping in a tuned car. If everything else looks ok I wouldn't worry about it!

Exciting Torque Steer!!

But the R has more boost than T5! Therefore more torque steer! If everything is ok just drive it!


I'm on the 12 step plan..... 12 beers in a case...... Coincidence? I think not!!!

Exciting Torque Steer!!

Wow alot of $$ will be wasted. The car in question is an R and that means front wheel drive turbo. The S60R is (I believe all wheel drive!) The Prius just does not have the power to create alot of torque steer! If you replace all the suspension it's still not going to correct the issue. The issue is...

98 volvo s70 t5 wont boost beyond stock psi with ecu tune

Wastegates are separate I've seen some listed throughout eBay. I think you have to look it up as the Mitsubishi wastegate! I'm still playing around with the tune, and settings for my engine. I'll be running it on a dyno once all is set! I'm on the 12 step plan..... 12 beers in a case...... Coinciden...
