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.

      Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
