Eboost Issues Need Advice

[jarrod e]

Hi Guys,

I recently purchased an r33 gtst ser1 and it has an eboost 2 40psi controller on board, Now im having torubles with getting the correct settings, I have taken it to a tuner but after 3 days of taking it there they have had no time to look at it,so I have decided to try and get the correct settings dialed in.

When i purchased the car the owner told me that his battery had died and the eboost was causing the boost to fluctuate under full load, it seems that the turbo will spool up and then die for a second and then remain on full boost. does anyone here know what settings I would need for my car to run @ 13psi with the following mods

FMIC

3inch Turbo back exhaust.

What i need is

gate pressure

sensitivity level

boost set point

any help would be greatly appreciated

why bother with a 40psi boost controller?

if its too complex, it probably is

a boost controller should be fairly easy to set

sell it, and buy something more normal?

otherwise google for some instructions

because it will come in handy for future mods, why downgrade and then have to upgrade again, it was in the car when I bought it so there is no point spending time removing it then selling it for the same price of a new lower spec boost controller, seems pointless to me.

The Eboost2 is a good unit but it is fairly difficult to get right. i have one on my r33. The problem that you are haveing is the same one as what i used to have. I had lots of trouble setting mine up it would not go passed 9 psi. I had to take the car to a couple of tunners till i got it worked out. It could still be adjusted more but i have become used to it. what are some of the mods u have done so far ?

I have 3 different settings SP1 10 psi, SP2 15 psi & SP3 19 psi. It would be easy to make your settings do these but will your car handle it.

mods t mine are

Hyper Gear Hyflowed Turbo

FMIC

3" zorst turbo back

Splitfire coils

Microtech lt12 computer

Eboost2

I have contemplated calling turbosmart tech support but I can only find their head office number.
