Chris Wilson Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Top quality precision fuel cut defenders (FCD's) Since Greddy and TRL stopped doing their very nice and reliable fuel cut defenders I have been wondering about building a sensibly priced alternative. The great thing with the Greddy is it did not clamp the MAP sensor voltage until the pre-set threshold was reached. The HKS one was not so nice and skewed the output from the MAP sensor, thereby also skewing the fuel curve. I have now tooled up to produce my own FCD that leaves the MAP sensor output *totally* unaltered until the voltage clamp threshold is reached, just like the Greddy ones did, when they were still available, but using more modern, closer tolerance components and a slight circuit improvement. It also uses the same colour wires as the Greddy, meaning the excellent on line pictorial fitting instructions at http://mkiv.com/techarticles/bcc/bcc_install/bcc.htm can be used to aid fitting, which is very easy. They come with an earth eyelet ready soldered on, meaning only three other wires to connect. Use the central stud or the main ecu to floor pan for th earth terminal, under the 10mm socket size nut. They come pre set on lab standard equipment,to suit either VVTi or earlier TT models. If you have a VVTi or 1JZ-GTE let me know when ordering. I have 6 ready to ship, the last batch sold out very quickly. They can be programmed for other MAP sensor turbo engines like Mitsubishis, RX7's, Skylines, MR2 turbos, blah blah. If you can mention them on other forums where you may be a member I will be very grateful! Price is £55 plus VAT (£66) with £5.80 plus VAT (£6.96) insured P&P to any UK post code. That's £72.96 grand total. Please ask for a delivery price to other places. Thanks. - - - Updated - - - I can supply wiring schematic for the VVTi if required. Just different ecu pins used, as easy to fit to a VVTi as a none VVTi engine, 4 wires to connect, one being an eyelet terminated ground wire like the none VVTi ones.

trebor69 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 These in effect get rid of the speed limit on JDM cars don't they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 No, they remove the over boost fuel cut, nothing to do with speed limit or kmh to mph conversion, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samdale Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 I'd like one for a vvti please Chris. Is it best to email you with address etc? And how would you like payment to be sent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 Paypal either as a family and friends "gift" of £72.96 if you are happy with that, or plus 4% to cover their fees, which makes it £76.87. Or a bank transfer of £72.96 is fine too, of course. E-mail me at [email protected] for payment details please. If you are in a rush let me know and I'll set one up for the VVTi tonight and it can out out tomorrow. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 Hattie says, "why can't I have a leather settee and a cream rug?" Daddy say "Cos you aren't as well behaved as Archer, and you'd knacker them up". What a nice shiny nose he's got, looks like you have had the Poor Boys wax on it! Cheers Sam, wiring diagram just sent , any probs just give me a shout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimjam92 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Hi Chris, do you have any of these left? Have bought a HKS one but after doing a bit of trawling through forums am hesitant to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have bought a HKS one but after doing a bit of trawling through forums am hesitant to use it. Yes I did a new batch a bit ago, have a few left on the shelf, the HKS one skews the fuel curve, rather than leaves it totally alone until boost cut level, bizarre but true. - - - Updated - - - Copycat Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, be happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
