I'm after an electronic boost controller, but want to run close to stock boost until around 3500-4000rpm at which point i want to hit high boost & water spray (water spray is boost activated set for high boost).

Dont really want any other features, so cheaper the better...

Any reccomendations?

hook it up to the standard boost controll solenoid . it turns on at 4500rpm . drill the restrictor out to the size untill it runs the high boost you want . or plumb in a manual boost controller after the solenoid . hook a relay up to your water sprayer with positive power and hook the nagative to the factory solenoid

Really? Care to elaborate?

I have not had any experience with the unit myself yet did not expect it to be up to the task mentioned above.

I have run one with great success ( I am only getting rid of it because I now have a G4 Link and will use that to control boost). The hard bit is they come as a kit ... well 2 kits actually the unit itself and the hand controller.. but still cheap.

With the handcontroller you can vary the amount of boost against the duty cycle of the injectors ( better than just rpm when you think about it) so it can easily meet the needs of the OP.

There is a huge thread by SK somewhere.

yes but you would be using the GTST ECU and from memory pin 25 is switched ground at 4500rpm

the stock boost solend would be $2 to buy from somedone who has gotten rid of it and as lachlan said, this would work prefectly. otherwise jaycar kit or if u want jap brand AVCR will do it but mega expensive

yep just check the GTST wiring diagrams

the stock boost solenoid has 12v constant and a switched ground from the ECU

when rpm is over 4500rpm it switches the ground on wire 25 i think and this turns the boost solenoid on, which makes it close, this bleeds a bit more boost on the std turbo

so you could use this in the same way to make it bleed a bit more, or use a bigger better valve and also run your water spray or whatever.

      In B4 "Not a Skyline"...

      By Rezz · Posted

      2001 BE5D Subaru Legacy B4 RSK (3rd gen) EJ208 (pink injector) Twin Turbo 280PS 5-speed manual Full time 4WD "RSK" grade which means all of the above LQC option which means stock rear spoiler  I got it primarily to export to someone outside Japan who was interested. These BE5 Legacy B4 RSKs are going through a bit of a resurgence right know in Japan as they are one of the few cars from the "turbo, manual, RWD/4WD, 280hp gentleman's agreement era" cars that don't require stupid money to purchase. Which for some people might be a good opportunity to get as a base for restoration. If I can't find anyone to purchase it I will certainly be doing that myself over the long term. Why? Because it's properly fast in stock form, handles well enough for a GT sedan, there's still enough aftermarket and (if you can wait a while) genuine part support to make it a restoration candidate (<-- that will only get worse over time so it's a case of do it now or choose get a BL5 4th Gen). Mechanically it's fine, has only 89,200kms on the odometer. The problem with this car is that the body and exterior trims are weathered from at least the last 10 years being parked outdoors. I'm the 3rd owner, the first owner was the one that had it for 14 years and barely drove it, had a low-speed front impact (which didn't damage anything behind the radiator support) and got it fixed and sold it. The 2nd owner put most of the kms on it and parked it outside for the last 10 years, hence the door rubbers have seen better days but if you overlook those cosmetic details, it presents pretty nicely. There is some minor rust on the LH rear wheel arch which I'll have looked at too at some stage.  Also as you'd expect from a car this age, the clear top coat is gone, leaving a satin finish on the roof.  Mechanically it's fine (as you would expect from a car with less than 100K kms) but the steering does feel slightly vague around the centre position at higher speeds. So first on the list is to get the steering rack bushes looked at. There's also the Lock button on the remote which doesn't work, but the Open button does.... it means that the anti-theft system thinks it's always open? It seems like if you open the car and don't start the engine within 3 mins or so the anti-theft kicks in again without any beeps or signals. So if you got to start it after that, it won't. You have to push the open button again. That's how I understand it anyway. Just a small irritation but not a big problem to sort out. There's only one mod, the Wangan SPL muffler. Just a tad louder than stock. It's a really good mod for those who don't want to wake the neighbours but still want to hear a more prominent unequal length header EJ20 sound. Anyway I hope to get all those things done eventually, that is unless someone wanted to import it to their country from Japan (where I live). I'm open for negotiations as I really would like a Skyline... but this will definitely suffice in the meantime 🙂 *Disclaimer: This is how I picked it up from the dealer, minus the stuff on the back seat. I haven't cleaned the engine bay or done a thorough exterior clean, aside from spray painting the wipers.

      Stagea choice's which model??

      By davemoto63 · Posted

      Hey all, a little help from the Stagea hive mind plz.. I'm days away from buying either a 2002 Stagea 250tRS AR-X Four, premium leather, power seats and all the old switches etc that go with it, or a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO, pov pack, cloth seats etc, with coil overs, sports zorst, comes with original zorst and suspension and parts. (I think I've got the models right?) Both are VQ25DET, have 160000kms, both straight no rust both with $2000+ in recent servicing receipts, both ride on aftermarket 18" rims. The Aero has a replaced turbo as well. I like the cool factor of the Aero car but the AR-X has never been modified. Neither have been driven hardly at all in the last 5 years. Any thoughts on which one or does it come down to personal preference? davemoto
