i have a blitz ebc and i cant seem to set it correctly to make reasonable boost without surging.

Im running a 3540 (internally gated) on an rb20 with mods to support some boost. Im aiming for around 22 psi without surge. Anyone know where abouts the gain and boost settings need to be? I cant seem to work it out.

Thanks

I havent install mine yet but...

Press menu, then select the boost menu by pressing the dial. Here you can select the boost channel, set auto / manual and set the set and gain.

By surge, do you mean a boost "spike" as it ramps onto boost and overshoots the target boost?

...could you fire one of those my way...

Hey dood, the link was to WA's Xspeed They have a good assortment of PDF's. They dont seem to have one for the i-Colour though :)

Incidently, i cannot reach that page anymore. I think they detected something accessing the PDF file directly- whoops! sorry xSpeed :D

overshoot is normal when you fiddle with the settings until it sorts it self out. it surges up and down, maybe 3 psi total, so 1.5 above and 1.5 below say 16 psi. When i view the graph of the boost i can see it easily, and i can feel it. Is there a chart i should be using to adjust the boost ratio to achieve a certain psi? for example, i can adjust the gain and the boost settings to whatever i like, but for example, for 20 psi should i have the gain set at ten and the boost at 75?

I'm sure someone who's set one up can shout out, im just thinking aloud. From using others, the numbers needed to get the target boost is different per turbo / waste gate / setup.

The gain number required, is a balance between getting the turbo to ramp as hard as possible but not overshoot.

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
