duuuuuuuuuuuude, stop talking like that right now...

haha 'i wants a EBC' should = "I want an EBC'

sorry gramma police lol

seriously though...

Are you prepared to fork out 3-500 dollars for one?

IMO, they're good, but don't really do much of a job more than a manual one, boost control is boost control.

Unless your spiking and/or need more range of adjustment, a manual one does fine.

Only really benefit if you need to constantly adjust yours boost levels in-cabin.

Flow me a carton and ill do it for ya :) (I live in Perth too)

there is a big difference between manual and electric boost controller.

most ebc will have gain setup which allow you to bring on boost early (with-in reason, the higher the gain level the more probably you will get boost spike)

there is a reason why manual is $50 and an ebc is anywhere from $250-$600.

Most of them are very simple to install they will have only 4-5wires, which will be something like : ground, power, ignition, lamination etc some many require tapping into ecu wires but it is a fairly straight forward job

For your average HP street car sure, manual ones are fine however start making some numbers and see what happens. What Kaido said sum's it up.

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
