Hey all,

I'm looking at buying a greddy profec b spec II boost controller.

Just wondering if any of you here have one? If so, what are your thoughts and do you have any pics of yours installed?

Anyway, I'm stuck choosing between either black or silver!? I think would prefer black but im not really a fan of the gold text on it, especially the huge logos on the top. (Yes, i guess im very picky - especially when it comes my car!)

I have always had my boost controllers mounted just behind the steering wheel. Again, any pics that would influence my decision either way would be appreciated, espcially if you have it installed behind the wheel of a 33!

Cheers!

Mate, I've seen this sort of thread a few times now - have a search!

But anyway, I run one in my 32 and one in my stag, no dramas and a good bit of kit (read: hasn't done me wrong yet).

It might be better to have it hidden to help keep the cops off your back.

hey bro, i got one installed myself. its running from underneath my headunit were the ash tray is... they are very good little unit. holds boost good and controls it good.

mines black. Somtimes if you get some coppers they might know what it is... they can find your solenoid in your engine bay and stuff. i chose black cos its more stealthier..

i got a black one as well! i guess it goes with the interior of the car whilst the silver one would contrast and stand out?

i got mine stuck below the dash above my left leg.

they easy to play around with as well as the place i got it installed did 14psi for high boost which now i've changed to 12psi.

i saw a mates one today and it looked even better that it did in some of the pics i've seen.

leaning towards black.

i like the silver and blue, but dont know if it would look a tad cheap in the flesh? i've never seen one so cant make an informed judgement :)

+1 for black.

Only drama i have with mine is it doesn't beep anymore when it counts down and over boosts :D Can't figure out if it's a setting or something doesn't work anymore.

i've had both black and silver in the same car. I think I like the black a bit better but they both look good. if you're after one I may actually have one FS.

      Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
