Cubes Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 The AVCR is actually a really really good boost controller. The problem is they are not super easy to setup and this is where a lot of people come across spiking problems. As with all boost increases it should be setup on a dyno. I had a blitz sbcid ebc and on the road also found that difficult to setup correct as to prevent spiking it requires a few full rpm rev from just off idle through to redline in fourth gear. So not exactly possible. :S All self duty cycle learning type boost controllers will have this problem. Get them tuned on a dyno and they are all good.

Pauly33GTS-t Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 if your not on a budget go for a profec b type or e-01 ultimately. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/176252-wat-boost-controller/#findComment-3225535 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cubes Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 See how you go with it in manual mode; if you are dropping boost at higher revs throw it in auto mode and have it do its boost curve learn thing in 4th gear. The one issue with auto mode is its prone to spiking IF you don't load it up enough from a low rpm i.e 4th gear. The spiking will occur when you put your foot down and hold it up a steep hill at lowish revs. Dropping boost depends on the boost your running vs what the actuator is rated at, how good your exhaust is and if the turbo is nearing its flow limits. Manual mode offers the best boost response. If you have a keen seat of the pants feel you will notice the manual mode has much sharper response. THe issue with manual mode is your not able to dial in more duty cycle at higher rev's; its a fixed value. Auto mode alters the duty cycle through its learning. I prefer the AVCR due to its fandangled features; which really are not needed unless your making a good whack of power i.e different boost levels for each gear.

sinistaGTR Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 AVCR +1 its great i love it. Can set it up as you please, i will be setting mine up for boost in each gear soon so that should be interesting lol.

Cubes Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Will be handy when you ramp up the boost. Mines close to being finished, it will be very interesting to see how peak power differs. Your running on regular 98 pulp? std cams? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/176252-wat-boost-controller/#findComment-3226957 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Race__24 Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 I've got the Blitz SBS ID III also, I've had no spiking issues what so ever. Just for a start try using auto mode duty of 30 and whatever psi you want to run, don't over do it!! i teach mine by doing a 2,3,4 gear run. once the L disappears from the top of the screen record the same type run and check for spiking on the boost graph. If there is none up the duty 5 or so and repeat untill you get a little spiking and then back it back off. I think mine ended up being around 50 duty. If you're after even better boost response you can use the scramble function and set a manual level for the first few seconds and then switch to the auto mode to prevent drop off at high rpm. When you're using manual mode the instructions say not to go over 15duty with an actuator type wastegate. There is a good tread by Col-gtsx but that was a long time ago, do a search for it and also for english instructions as there are some around somewhere, maybe try the Blitz site also. Also, for your next purchase try www.nengun.com Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/176252-wat-boost-controller/#findComment-3226961 Share on other sites More sharing options...

salad Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 (edited) I use the Blitz DSBC Spec-R and have had no problems with it. Works great and super easy to set up, only two things to set. Have another dyno sheet of it holding 20psi the same, but havn't got it scanned. It doesn't have anywhere near the features of the ACVR or the SBC-iDIII though, sometimes I wish it did have those other things, but it's pretty rare that I do. All I ask of the controller is that it keeps the wastegate closed for as long as possible and holds boost steadily. This one does that, and it cost me $300 2nd hand Edited July 14, 2007 by salad Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/176252-wat-boost-controller/#findComment-3228633 Share on other sites More sharing options...
