I've just changed my induction kit to the Apexi version. In doing so, I noticed that there was some oil in and around the afms. Having consulted on this, popular consensus is that she's breathing heavily as I'm running nigh on 1.3 bar without a catch tank (next on shopping list). She isn't using oil, plugs clean as a whistle and she doesn't burn oil at all so I'm relaxed that this diagnosis is correct.
However, I'm told that in both the latest HKS and Apexi catalogues, both companies recommend that you do not rev the RB26 higher than 7.2k, 7.5k max with the stock crank or you'll end up doing the crank and more, plus you'll add to this breathing problem especially if you're running at higher boost. I've got my rev limit set at 7.8k at the moment which, if this advice is correct is too high.
Any thoughts on this....?
