ok, what are peoples experiences with the Electronic Boost Controllers? Id love some feedback with ease of use, installation difficulty, value for money and of course, the good, bad and downright ugly of em all. Ive read a few writeups on turbosmart e-boost and blitz ebc's but companies generally write what they want you to know.

Cheers, Allan

Hey mate I can't offer any real feed back but I'm looking at a HDi setup.

So far the reviews I've found are good and it seems to be a reasonable price for the simple all electronic setup. So far this is my pick for bang for your buck so I'll let you know what its like when I get mine at xmas.

what sort of prices are you looking at buddy? as there is quite a range out there,

bang for buck i couldnt go past an hdi one - however i went for the model below, the one without the gauge (as i already had one)

its a nice little neat device and the delivery from the supplier was equally nice hahah

Ill have to post some piccies one day of my death machine, methanol and 36pound into a 1.8l sohc subaru donk of the 1980's vintage. was my weekend warrior for the drags but ive been commanded to get rid of it lol, i have spent waaaay to much money on it. Thanks for the input guys, its great, as for DirtGarage, id love to know more of the ID III please good sir. I was also recommended an AVCR or Blitz by another person so it seems there the go! Hopefully that gearbox is well on its way to getting built and my turbo's will arrive mid next week.

I run a basic Blitz EBC at 25 lb and have never seen an issue with it Allan.

Have a few friends all running 20 plus lb with a variety of ebc's as well.

The most popular big boost ebc at Jambo that I saw was the turbo smart job. Some of those guys were running insane amounts of pressure through those things.

I did a review on the AVC-R vs the SBC ID-III a few years back...

You might find it helpful... I personally believe the ID-III is probablly the best money can buy, they just so realiable and easy to use...

I Also agree with Paul, the AVC-R can be very touchy with high boost applications... Most single solinoid controllers face this issue when using a high gain...

Anyway, link to the review I did ---> http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/SB...ml&hl=avc-r

all the time buddy ! :D

have you mapped whats actually occurring on a dyno with the AVC-R at 24+?

we changed from avc-r to Blitz ID-III and made the same power with 2psi less peak boost.

Have used the Blitz ID-III to control boost on several low mount twin internally wastegated and single high mount externally wastegated set-ups up to 34psi...solid as a rock!

Didn't you hear Noel ? He has a turbo'd micra that makes 50hp on 25psi of boost. The turbo is actually a specially designed straw that he blows into while he's driving. He gets them for free from the Baskins store.

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2

      Speed Sensor replacement

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.

      Speed Sensor replacement

      By R33_Guy · Posted

      Hey all. I’m looking on replacing my speed sensor on my R33 GTR. Will the center differential need to be drained, and if so, the center diff uses ATF fluid D? I found information on the transmission, front diff and rear diff. Can’t find a for sure answer for the center diff. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
