    Great video. Fans of SH Foresters are a small but important, clever and good-looking audience demographic.
    Re the top-end knock, you would know this already, but for other viewers - watch out for old knock sensors spitting out a lot of false positives. Mine (2008 vintage) was claiming heaps of knock on the dyno when clearly there was none (rebuilt engine on E85). Symptoms of a too-old knock sensor on the road include stumbling/protesting under medium load (eg 4th gear up a medium hill) as the ECU pulls heaps of timing and makes loss of power, adding heat, etc. even worse.

      Lol yeah.
      The 32 bit ecu is pretty sensitive to noises but the point in the video where the ecu heard det coincided with when I heard a single click of det on my det cans so I know it was real. Noises like vibrations, rattles and forged pistons can play havoc with the std 32 bit ecu though

    Nice one - i was laughing at the moments like “probably” when referring to “limiting” the upgrades to the rear ARB and of course the exhaust. But nice to see the update, keep em coming!

    Its strange for me to see an Ej205 in a Sh5, with a push button start haha. Lovely car, I feel the same way about my Bugeye, could use a smidge of modern touches, double din, tune and some suspension but the interior still holds up well and feels equally as functional as newer veh that I get to work on. ( i would like a back up cam, Im enamored by them lately) The plastic surfaces that cause jingles can always use a soft pad inside at least to quiet it down alittle. Cheers mate!

    I did the head unit steering wheel control on my dad's 10 jdm xt. But i can't remember the wiring 😅 but i remembered i bought the harness with the steering wheel control wires ( there're 2 types, with and without. Well, in the US.) And one of the wires needs to be grounded and also connected to the head unit steering wheel control wire. Wish i could check it, but im nowhere close to the car😅

      Personally I'm not in a hurry to change the turbo.. it does everything I need it to at the moment. I will investigate what it is soon but it seems crazy high for a tf turbo so my gut feel says td04 👍

  • @saabaero6211
    @saabaero6211 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thank you very much thats great starting point on stock .. I have also JDM SH5 XT 2008 5mt ... way overdue for a tune ..which havent done .. sadly. .. mods is only 3inch from turbro back an K N filter been running like this for the last 8 months .. was the tune on Sports # mode ? is the turbo TF035 ?

    • @racedynamix
      @racedynamix  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The tune is across all the maps, the I,s,s# just dictates the throttle sensitivity and requested torque. This is turn dictates the boost targets. That way fueling and ignition is done for all modes and boost in I mode is left as eco as possible. Sport and sports sharp boost and power are the same, just a throttle sensitivity changed.
      I am still to have the covers off the turbo to discover which it is. It would be quite high power for a tf035 to get to even with a full decaf system so I am leaning to it being a td04... I will see soon I guess 😎

    • @racedynamix

      Hi. Yes it would. The induction kit changes how the air is measured and enters the engine... and as such will probably make it run leaner.m

      Unfortunately more boost doesn't always mean more power if the other elements of the tune aren't right. If Afr and ignition timing are right then probably up around 200 though
