    Default BIG rb20det missfire on boost, help pronto please

    Howya lads,

    first off spec is fmic, actuator, walbro(?), wasted coil pack set up, no exhaust

    The r32 had a small miss in portlaoise but revved through it and was ok on the day. There was a problem with the wasted spark pack yoke with a connection but we fiddles it and it was grand for the day. But when i took it down the road anytime since, its running on like 4, and then if you leave it idle for a while it fires on 6 again. If you floor it in second, it comes on boost and all hell lets loose, big bangs, flames and then stops firing on al cylinders.

    Any ideas?? I changed the plugs and put in ngk 8eix or whatever theyre called today and nothing changed.

    thanks

    Where's the box off the wasted spark kit?keep it away from heat etc, Check all the wiring on it again there, reckon it's the wasted spark kit cause it's cutting back to 4 cyc

    I am running a DW wasted spark kit on my RB20DET with standard ECU (with nistune) without any problems for the last 6 months.

    Ya I bought my kit second hand, when I got it the wiring was messy, do you know what I did............fixed it, also very simple, actually even simpiler.
