I put a ProfecB SII On my car and have set it 0% in Low and Hi.

But it still boosts over 10psi according to the LCD screen, I have the start Boost at 0, and the Gain on 10%.

Before I fitted it it used to boost right on the middle notch of the factory gauge which I beleive is about 5-7psi.

If I set it 0% will this get me the lowest boost setting possible? I am trying to get 7psi in Low and 10-10.5psi in Hi!

The car is a R33 S2 auto and has stock motor and turbo but has 3inch exhaust, fmic and Apexi Power Intake.

Would the car be boosting higher due to the free flowing setup compared to standard?

Any Suggestions appreciated.

Dave.

if you want the lowest possible boost just turn it off. then make your hi boost either the lo or hi setting on the controller and just turn on the controller when you want higher boost. done. ;)

Yep thats what I do, turn it off and gets 7 psi, have set low to 10 psi and high to 13 psi.

pff thats no fun... try 10psi (for a little bit of traction in the wet)

14psi for chopping v8s at lights

and 19psi for tyre shreading no traction performance

lol

Hahaha and 25psi if u need an excuse for the misses to do an engine rebuild :dry:

Ok Ok, Just read the Tutorial, and if Im understanding it right, If i have everything set at zero and im still boosting to 12.5psi,thats the lowest I can go?

I've read that its not safe to do so on a stock S2 turbo! Could my actuator be stuffed??

I did already say it once, but i will say it again. the lowest you can go is with the controller turned off. turn it off and see what boost you get. that is your 'base boost'.

I also was fairly shocked with my low boost settings...

have it set to nothing and it sits on .5 bar under normal to medium driving.....however i found that under full acceleration it hit .9 bar......

so you car drive the car with the boost controller off?

cheers

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
