i got my Greddy Profec B spec II installed a few weeks ago now, and i think it time i learnt how to use it.

it seems to be dropping boost levels?

last time i drove it on sunday, it was hitting round the 11 pound mark.

now today, i took it for a quick burn to get things moving and its hitting 9 pound max

and it just doesnt feel right, any one near st agnes wanna be a teacher for 10 mins? :D

take it to the person that installed it for you (unless its not a machanic)

you might have a split in the boost line which happened to a mate of mine.

morpowa did it, simon is always busy, i feel bad rockin up for something as little as this.

doesnt matter how bad you feel and how good morpowa is, its a matter of u car isnt working properly.

but yeh i'd get it checked.

yeah when u put it that way, im the customer, and im not satisfied, so i have every right to go back.

what do u think of ure screamer??? mine goes to tilbrooks on monday to get mine fitted.

looking forword to it.

who did yours and what $$$?

WTF! now its down to 7 psi.....this is really starting to shit me.

how much more money do i have to pour into this thing before it runs half decent.

F*^%ing thing!

thats why get it installed and properly tuned on a dyno mate....btw have you checked for split along the vacumm hoses

it was tuned on dyno dude!!!!

it was all done when i had the power FC installed and tuned last thursday!

running 13 pound hi boost, now running 7 pound hi boost only 3 drives later!

simon reckons could be time for new turbo, split hose, or actuator stuck open.

I am with simon on that one dude....i reackon check the split hose....if its not that then actuator and if not then :D sad news new turbo

its not really sad news for a new turbo, its a good excuse to upgrade really.

can any one reccommend a good nursery that sells good quality money trees? :)

Ive heard the hydroponically grown "money trees" are quite profitable.

    • The trigger kit I have is similar to the one in the link below. While going through Facebook, I saw someone else mention a similar issue, and I’m starting to think this could be related to the crank gear itself. I understand these parts are CNC machined, but maybe some earlier versions or individual pieces might have slight inconsistencies—it just doesn’t look right in my case. https://www.facebook.com/share/16an8evZd9/?mibextid=wwXIfr I originally installed the crank gear using the thin OEM washer, but as shown in the attached photo, the timing belt walks very close to the edge. When I tried using a Nitto washer—which is thicker—it actually made the issue worse. The belt walks about 1mm off the front edge, which raises more concern about alignment.   I’ve gone through the full process of elimination:   The tensioner pulley and bolt are brand new and installed correctly. The bolt isn’t bent and is oriented properly. The back of the tensioner and the idler pulley are clean and seated correctly. The idler sits slightly more forward, which I understand is due to its design. I’ve experimented with both tight and loose belt tension, but it makes no difference. As soon as the engine runs, the belt immediately walks forward again—even if I reset it beforehand.     At this point, I’m considering replacing the crank gear with your Race Version 1 (12-tooth), but before purchasing, I wanted to ask:   Are you aware of any alignment issues when using this gear? Would this gear help keep the belt aligned correctly, or could the walking still occur? Does it work with a standard missing-tooth crank and rear washer? Is there any specific crank setup or install procedure required?     For reference, I’m not using a front washer, as the PRP crank gear seems to replace the need for one.   Looking forward to your advice.
    • Yep, looks that way. Never driven an E30 or R31 so I can only imagine  
    • Yuh, My new R34 box is sitting on the workshop floor (in its large shipping box, which is a nice thing on its own), along with a front plate to convert to push clutch. There was no way I was interested in rebuilding my existing one. Was only partly interested in the risk of buying a used one. But, if you want a 2nd hander, I can point you to one in/near Melbourne at least. @Komdotkom has one that should be in good enough condition to be usable. I don't think it's in a for sale thread, you'd have to message him. @redzedhas one that definitely needs a rebuild.
    • I used to love going to Amaroo to watch the HQ series go for broke (eventually stopped due to lack of spare parts) and also the Porsche series.  It was so cool to back your car up to nearly the edge of the viewing barrier and party with your friends, having a bbq and alcoholic/non drinks. It was such a family/mates atmosphere
