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.

      Definitely a hearty eater when we go out, I consider these meals my cheat day as I've been watching my calories in and calories out pretty hard since my little fun size stroke, I've gone from a fat boy of 89 Kg, I'm only 165cm tall/short, down to a almost semi lean 73 Kg over the last few years, I'm currently around 17% body fat which my doctor is very happy with, but, my goal is to slowly get down to and maintain 15%,so yeah, I want all of the protein, carbs, fats and sugars when I go out for a binge

      There was a great one on Victoria Rd in Gladesville too back in the day. I can only assume GTSBoy is thinking of the mill up on the wollondilly, no restaurant there any more but they have restored the original steam engine on site and run it every few months, have an annual steampunk festival etc @The Bogan, you came to the wrong town for restaurants. we have a few reasonable asian and indian options but the Paragon is as good as it gets otherwise. That brewery is apparently just opened, been meaning to give it a go some time. The Highlands have plenty of fancy options but I suspect you are more a hearty eater than fancy eater

      Going by the intake & injectors I'd be guessing it's a DE, check the head casting number, should be 5L8 on a DET, 5L7 I think is the DE number.
