u can't stuff it..actually you can, but its pretty hard..

as long as you have a proper boost guage you are safe (even if you borrow one and rig it in). I wouldn't recommend you muck with it without a guage though. If you install it all, take it for a spin, and the boost starts creeping too far back it off, and you'll be safe.

If you haven't got your S-AFC installed yet(?) and tuned - also be careful dialing it past about 9psi as you might start leaning out with the stock ECU (danger, danger) . If you have a 95 model you can prolly go a bit further in the boost stakes.

I fiddled around removing and putting on a couple of boost controllers (going back to stock, blah). Only time i had troubles was when i put back on my stock solenoid and got the tubing the wrong way.. When it kept spinning past 12 i knew something was wrong so i backed up to fix it all up again :P Without a guage to see this it would'a just kept spinning till nice little bits of ceramics were rattling in my exhaust.

errrrrr thats kinda scary nowww. gee's gord..with the bits and peices rattling in your zorst. thanks for your detailed info dude.. :P

always detail info you give!

sooo what should i do? get the boost controller install same time as the tuning of the safc? surely workshops will have a spare gauge i can borrow .

Where abouts in the Sth Eastrn Suburbs?....I know of one near chaddie shopping centre......

yepp. very close to chaddy. PM me with the details. cheers dude.

if you're not confident yourself, just get the place that installs the S-AFC to also install the boost controller and tune it all up as one - will work out cheaper that way. A workshop will also use their own pressure guage to check everything so you shouldn't need an aftermarket guage then (but they are a good idea)

You're close to chaddy too ..hmm, i am 5 mins away.. if you want me to quickly show you what u need to do, let me know.

pushhead if you need someone to install it and do some calibration drop me a pm or email me have all the equipment and boost guage if needed can also hook you up with a simple one nice and cheap

cheers

    • The drop shipping isn't the issue I believe, the issue is that a US business is getting stuff manufactured in China, and then selling them, this gets reported in their taxation, thus, I believe, the US government still wants its pound of flesh Whether it is the 10% tariff, which I'm happy to pay to play with, or the 115%, which would be a deal breaker Hopefully this gets sorted sooner rather than later as impatient Mark is impatient...LOL
    • Amazing build thread mate. I wish mine was still on here too. Love the seats. How did they wear overtime? Great to see you are still working on it bud. 
    • Drop shipping isn't hard for them to sort out...
    • I bought it for a forever car bud. Was really lucky. It's one owner and kept fully serviced and immaculate. Kills me to modify it but will keep it to the engine and GB only. Body will stay stock and intend to keep all the parts. It's a Silver with factory Altia kit. My mate and I are building it together in the garage. It's currently an auto and just bought new manual GB and parts from Michael at Kudos. They've been great. 
    • So, as for the intake parts, part supply/delivery is currently problematic  As the parts are not made in the US (probably China) new tariffs are making things slow to happen, thanks Trump The joint I am getting the intake parts from, FAB9, are in the US, typically they are delivered to the US then sent out from there to, well, here, or wherever  FAB9 are currently looking at shipping directly from the supplier to avoid tariff hits,  so now I'm waiting until that little chestnut gets sorted out My impatience is blossoming nicely
