So this is a long shot but worth a try. My 2 month old Blitz Spec R Boost Controller fried itself... it got stuck on a setting, still holds boost, still lights up but i can't adjust anything... Sent it back to nengun who sent it back to blitz who said 'thanks for your money but to bad, must of been your car that did it'

Great customer service hey... They won't fix it or replace it... so by fluke chance i'm hoping someone on here has a control unit they want to sell me.... Really don't want to fork out another $500 for a new controller.....

any suggestions welcome :P

Edit: For anyone who is interested it is stuck on the setting '62' which was running about 1.3 bar or so on my car... if you're interested in buying it stuck on that setting i can get a brand new one, and sell you the solinoid with the stuck monitor for cheap.............

Shit you had some bad luck there Andrew, open her up mate and see if you can do anything with it, dont worry if you stuff it up its wortless anyway ..

Tell me about it :spank:

It actually works fine on the setting its stuck on. Which is the 2nd highest setting and the one i used most common, the only other one i used was the next on up with ran with the number '68' which ran a touch more boost... I'm tempted to just stick it back in and forget about it... If i really want to run a bit more boost i could just bleed some off... ?

So Blitz insulted me and wanted to sell me a control unit replacement only for $400. ..|..

So i'm getting my unit back and will see if i can get it fixed, anyone know anyone who can fix things like that?

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
