hey,

got a problem here, has anyone use trust profac B-spec II on R34 GTT before?

I got one unit to be fitted with Apexi pfc ECU...the boost would not hold..I've seen the dyno result..whenever boost hits 0.9bar, it just dive down, the device I thought was faulty...The tuner is X-speed in W.A...they have spend the whole day trying to tune the damn thing...and even told me that they had another experienced mechanics in to take a look at the connection and such.....but still couldn't figure what is wrong with it.....

so I sent back to gR33ddy whom i got the boost controler from to be tested by trust

I got news from gR33ddy that the boost controler is not faulty???

huh??? so tuner said it's faulty and seller say it's not....wtf is this....

back to topic..is this just because profac cannot be fitted on GTTs? or am I getting screwed by one of the party involved...

Well there is not doubt that boost controller is completely fine for your car. The poor performance you are experiencing are thus either due to a fault with your device, a faulty installation or a problem with the tuner.

I am using the same controller on my GTR and despite some initial waverings as to whether it was up to the job it seems to be performing adequetly now I have worked out it's little quirks.

If you go grab the settings and type them out it might give us an indication to where the problem is. There should be these settings:

- boost (% figure)

- set boost (value in bar)

- gain (% figure)

There are also limiter figures which con red when you're scrolling thru the modes. Be sure your limiter is not set below your set boost or you could see something like you describe............. thats an obvious one though your tuner would definately not stuffed that up.

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
