Hey guys,

I recently received a HKS EVC VI (instead of the V I ordered) and have successfully installed it and have it set up to some limited extent (I.e, it reaches peak boost and holds it. I think I was lucky to make it that far).

There are still some features I'd like to be able to tinker with that are listed as features.

Does anyone else have one of these and know what each function in the menus does?

Cheers guys,

Shayde

I have this one. However the manual posted in post #2 is a manual for an EVC 4 (according to your post)

even though it was 5 in the file name. I've found this to be consistent in all english manuals I've found.

yeah, there is alot of confusion all over the place. i spent a while looking for a manual that was for the 4. which seems to be called the 5.

you can get software to set up that controler there is a pc program avaliable

installed mine over the past few days, got hold of an english translation for it, ask me any questions, ill try to answer them as i seem to have figured most of it out. Did the full boost mapping, ie throttle vs rpm boost map.

(evc5 in japan, evc6 elsewhere)

Can anyone advise me which is the best hose to connect the boost sensor to for a NEO engine, photos would also be great. did mine but the hose goes to some sort of electric solenoid box at the top back of engine, wondering if this would contaminate the pressure levels. thanks

Hey Guys bought same controller as well... just wondering what u guys have ur setup @ for a RB25det stock Turbo??

E.g. Base Boost 8psi, Option A= 12psi Option B=10psi and Scramble Boost = 14-15Psi for X sec... etc??? Ta

Hey guys, my EVC 6 reads well above my HKS analog gauge, seems to be a normal thing. Mine reads about 3 psi higher. Mines also set up according to the diagram and holds boost very nicely. My only peeve is that it reads the wrong values.

Hey Shade do u have a aftermarket BOV??? my plumback return is blocked off cuz of my Bovus Maximus BOV... i'm not sure if that affects it???

Where is ur middle nipple (1) attached on ur Stepping motor.. mine is off the compressor that returns to the Turbo.., Nipple 0 is on the actuator n nipple 3 is off the return line that Tee off the regulator and the plenum... sound about right????

What was ur Initial Setup.. E.g. Max Wastegate boost @???

SeS,

Yeah, I have a low mount, internal gate. Aftermarket turbo and BoV. Same block off thing going on. I can't remember exactly without looking and it's cold outside :rofl:

Okay, had a look. First nipple (on the left with the bracket facing backward) goes to actuator on the turbo. Middle nipple goes to intercooler piping. Last nipple on the right goes to the same line that all my boost gauges feed off.

My initial set up.. Just set my max boost to 12psi with boost warning set to 13.5psi and boost drop set to 3psi. All the offsets at 0.

Hope that helps!

Shayde

My middle nipple doesn't go back to the intercooler nipple cuz it doesn't have one.. but instead it goes back to the compressor line which goes back to the turbo... not sure if that it?

I'll try to get a nipple on my intercooler n hook it up to that.. n c if it makes a difference

Where do u set the boost warning??? the next option after setting up max boost/stable boost is choosing the boost level for option A & B......, where is the boost drop set option???

    • Sounds more like what Brad said, that it's mainly transfer. What pad bed in procedure did you use, and did you replace/machine the rotors, or just swap pads?
    • The stutter is almost entirely in the pedal. I don't feel the brakes release and reapply as you would with ABS engaging but the pedal feels that way, without the brakes releasing. It only lasts for less than a second and the pedal is fine again. It's hard to explain, sorry.  I'll get under this weekend and just double check everything is tight. Fluid is at max where I left it.
    • What bedding in procedure did you use?   When you say stutter, what exactly do you mean? Like it feels like someone letting go of the brakes momentarily and regrabbing them again to get you to stop? Re-reading your post, and that is what it kind of makes me think you're explaining, like theres a little bit of a jolt, likely just as you're reaching a stop. I've only had this issue once. And if its caused by what caused mine, you will want to get the car up on stands again and check it over. Mine was a case of a caliper mounting bolt coming out and letting the caliper rotate on the other remaining bolt and gave play in a wheel as it came to a stop. But not every stop either!
    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - then entered a hotlap with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
