Yeh the kit fitted pretty good. I didnt have to trim the blades but.

What I have to do is.

Trim bumper frame at the back.

Trim the front bar (as you can see)

Drill one hole for the piping.

One thing i would like the kit to have is a pipe from the turbo outlet, that is better then the stock one.

The just jap kit uses the stock pipe for this.

Oh I havent got any pics of the exhaust but its was pretty simple to install (once the old rusty one was off).

Does anyone know where the best place to put the boost controller on to. It used togo on the stock pipe out of the turbo but the JJ kit doesnt have a nipple on it. ATM I "T" ed it off at the BOV but its not working properly. I think the BOV effects it.

Well sofar its fine. The kit looks like good quality and is all polished up. You can feel the difference after a good thrash in the temps of the piping and the end tanks.

Just 2 things I would like to change.

1. Put a nipple on the out pipe of the IC for the boost controller

2. Ditch the stock out pipe from the turbo and replace with a manrel bent Stainless one.

I'm thinking about getting one of these justjap intercoolers too. Any problems with it so far? Probably a bit early to be asking! :(

Would you recommend one of these???

1. the boost controller goes in between the hose from the actuator to the outlet of the turbo(compressor cover where says garett ,nothing to do with blow off valve ,

2. why ?

I know it goes on the outlet of the turbo but there is no nipple to attach it to.

If you have a look at the pipe out of the turbo its got a realy bad bend 90degrees. A larger manrel bend here wouldn't hurt

run the boost control from the plenum.. will give less drop in the positive pressure reading.

the r33 turbo does not have the outlet on the turbo itself.

the r32 turbo has this outlet..

Would it be a problem if its connected with the BOV

Like in this pic?

wouldn't see an issue with it, just make sure it seals REALLY well .. use cable ties on your joins and should be fine..

check all teh hoses for any cracks, or just use new ones.. cos if it leaks your boost will spike and you'll have big issues..

Ok cool thanks mate.

One thing ive noticed with the BOV is at no boost it doesnt go off anymore.. you just here the turbo flutter sound. But when on boost it does the normal sound. Im guessing its due to the new intercooler.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
