i installed a gizzmo ms2 eboost the other day and i cant get it off stock boost i did everything the instructions say to do. i know you have to adjust the duty cycle but this isnt doing anything... at 5000 plus rpm it creeps to about ten but thats it . i believe the ms2 uses the same method of boost control as the ms-ibc unit.. if anyone knows why or has a opinion on wat it could be it would be greatly appreciated

leet skillz. when you say "ENGINE" where do you mean? do you mean the back of the plenum? the front of the plenum? somewhere else?

have you checked the basics, does the solenoid have power, does it click open/closed when you change boost etc?

does the solenoid only have IN and OUT? some have 3 ports

the line runing to engine leads to the back of the plenum it has three ports but i am positive its in the right one . how do i check if its working??? by listening to the solenoid while the engines on yes???

none of the hoses from the solenoid should run to the plenum. the only one that runs from the plenum will go to the guage.

    • Yeahhhh, the costs have killed me. Spent more than the cost of an engine rebuild and it most mostly servicing and a tune lol.
    • I'm not 100% how the BMW racers do it, but I know from other brands like Merc, moving, and changing the coolers is one of the things. Like getting a transcooler out from infront of the radiator to out near a wheel arch. So some of the stuff you've got crammed in the middle front, spread it out and open up where you can in the bar to get more air in to the sides.
    • Small update for the day... Turns out the intercooler and engine coolant hose kits are anything but complete....I probably should have counted better but it only really covers about half the coolant hoses in the car, it really just covers the visible stuff and pretends everything else doesn't exist (turbo water feed and returns and also heat exchanger lines through the 2 pumps and cooler) .In any case, I'm happier to have half reliable hoses than none, but a bit of a disappointment. Anyway...finger click (and 5 hours).....hoses in place, lots of spring clamps replaced with screw clamps, and engine coolant is on the pressure tester for the night.   Incidentally, upsized header tank is an Inifiniti factory option....not sure I'll ever do prod car racing in this but at least it is legal.
    • Just weld it onto the hot pipe. If you want it right after the turbo, put it right after the turbo. Or rip the comp cover off and drill and tap a hole into it.
    • hahaha glad I can rely on you two to go on a spiral at the drop of a problem! Some quick answers....the ducting is excellent top bottom and sides....everything that gets in goes through the coolers (noting the oil cooler redirects it out again, fair call if it is cooling 120o+) and the heat exchanger for the intercooler also has some scoops to pick up more than it's fair share too. I can't see going down the water spray track....no bueno for formal racing and a big risk for long rally days if you run out (plus I'm not clear if it is allowed there either yet).   Frankly, it must be possible to reliably put 400kw through a standard front end, the BMWs do it so I just need to work it out....I'm starting with reducing blockages in the way and adding some coolant capacity with a bigger header tank, flushing rad and making sure it was filled/bled properly (I didn't do the last coolant change); also taken measurements incase next step is a bigger/higher capacity custom radiator
