Inast, is that a boost controller made by TRUST? I was told to use a Trust Profec B spec by one tuning workshop or a Blitz Spec R by another workshop...

Ronin, is the Blitz SBC iD II anything like this Blitz Spec R??

AVCR is still one of the best if you ask me

Alot of people say its rice because of its mad vacuum flouresent screen, but it goes well with the system. The screen is dot matrix and does well at showing detailed graphs and analog meters aswell.

Boost is stable and controlled, and yes it is harder to use than most of the others simply because it has more detailed settings and options.

Tune it right, youll get exacly what you want.

Apexi dont stuff around.

Make sure you have the car dyno tuned at the maximum boost you want to run. I know at least 3 Skyline owners who have blown their engines from installing a boost controller and thinking "I wonder how she goes on 19psi". Boom.

Myself, I have no boost controller, fixed at 20psi. Control the power with your right foot, thats what the pedal is for.

I know this may be hijacking the thread a bit, but does anyone run the Greddy e-01 boost controller? Are they worth the expense?

Its a bit more expensive than the others (similar to AVCR) but im thinkng about getting one teamed up with an emanage when i get the money.

AVC-R is definitely one of the best, for my money. Most people worry whether the EBC will hold boost, but they forget that it's also important that the EBC doesn't spike, and the boost reading is accurate. Some of the other big names have been known to overboost a fair bit. My 2c.

.....won all sorts of awards.....

Funny I never seen this award ceremony on TV, must be something like Grammy awards I suppose? It better not be some of those so-that-you'll-notice-me-hey-I-win-an-award award thing!

Sorry for the "sarcasm", but there are many manufacturers out there who doesn't need to win an award in order to produce great products.

question: why would people spend up tp $1,500 on boost controll when you can buy a standalone ecu for around that price and get all the features of boost controll + alot of other stuff...?

Hmm... problem is not many standalone ecu for that price incorporates everything. Not sure about Wolf but even PowerFC DOES NOT have a boost controller embedded, it is still an option add-on that you need to buy.... so as far as I know there hasn't been any so far... unless u can show us which aftermarket ECU has boost controller included for that price.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
