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.

that was lame :D

more effort is needed in that :)

The HDI Boost Controllers are quite a reasonable base model electronic boost controller however quality I was a little weary of. In my case one of the adjustable knobs failed and basically did nothing. I never bothered fixing it as shortly after that I pulled my car off the road and it didn't have the features i needed.

Basically work out the boost you want to run, work out the features you would like it to have, narrow it down to those options then work out which one you want. Asking such a broad question isn't going to get you the best answer.

As a few others have said I quite like the Blitz ID-III as well. But it depends on your application and budget you might not need to go that overkill.

Gizzmo MS-IBC II

best bang for buck and apparently it can be used for up to 4bar (like who is going to use that.... but anyway)

There's a Euro 8sec GTsT that uses it so it must be reasonable at worst,

Scramble modes, bar, psi and Kpa readouts, 8 presets, Anti-Spike, Gain and Duty settings, Auxiliary remote which can be programmed etc etc... Small black box with simple blue led display. easily hid.

My mech wanted me to fork out the 900-1200 bux for an AVC-r, but that was because he was an Apexi dealer.

The Gizzmo unit does the job and I haven't heard many negative reviews.

    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
    • Yeah Jap import. Fairlady Z then! I'm a bit the same.  They've been on my radar for a fair while but then just impulsively decided to buy one!  Was going to just buy an NA and add turbos to it later but decided to save the f'ing around and just buy the turbo version. 
    • Thanks mate, well done to you too! Yeah not looking forward to doing any major work to it!
