i have the bost controller as above and ive noticed that if im fully fanging it (like we're talking fullthrottle top end of 4th and 5th on high boost, the little plastic plugs that come with it to block the one spare hole in the solenoid pop out and it starts overboosting, i even tried siliconing in one of the plugs but now all of em are popped so i cant run high boost until i block this up, no screw came with the kit to block it up which is stupid and the tyhread seems to not be of standard thread types for that size screw, wtf can i do ?

no because when the plug is in i get no overboost, but when the plug pops off i get overboost, because it creates a leak in the solenoid, dunno wtf is wrong with your boost controller then dude coz if u have a leak u should be overboostin

I dont know, mine had always run with no problems without the little plug for the 3rd port.

i dont actually have it connected atm cause i have an adjustable actuator.

hey sorry to post this up so late.But ive had a problem with my boost ever since i got the above boost controller installed and i just found out that the vaccum + pressure lines swapped the wrong way (with the actu8or hose where the preassure should be and vice versa) so i was getting a suck reading where i should have been getting a push reading to the valve unit.HAS THIS HAPPEND TO ANYONE BEFORE AND WHAT DOES IT DO TO THE OVERALL PERFORMANCE OF IT BOOSTING ETC.?????

    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
    • Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
    • Got the front subframe and suspension in.    
    • If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
